Treatments

Teeth restoration typically refers to procedures that aim to repair or replace damaged or missing teeth, restoring function, aesthetics, and overall oral health. Here are some common methods of teeth restoration: Fillings: Used to repair cavities caused by tooth decay. They can be made from materials like amalgam (metal), composite resin (tooth-colored), gold, or porcelain. Crowns: Also known as caps, crowns cover a damaged tooth to restore its shape, size, strength, and appearance. They're often used when a tooth is severely decayed or fractured. Bridges: These are used to replace one or more missing teeth. They consist of artificial teeth (pontics) anchored to adjacent natural teeth or dental implants. Dental Implants: Titanium posts surgically implanted into the jawbone to replace missing tooth roots. They provide a strong foundation for artificial teeth, such as crowns or dentures. Dentures: Removable prosthetic devices used to replace multiple missing teeth. They can be partial (replacing some teeth) or complete (replacing all teeth in one or both jaws). Root Canal Therapy: This procedure is performed to treat infected or inflamed tooth pulp. The infected tissue is removed, and the root canal is cleaned, disinfected, and sealed to prevent further infection. Veneers: Thin shells of porcelain or composite resin bonded to the front surface of teeth to improve their appearance. They're used to cover stains, chips, or gaps and to enhance the shape or alignment of teeth. Orthodontic Treatment: This includes braces, aligners, or other appliances to straighten misaligned teeth and correct bite issues. The specific treatment recommended for teeth restoration depends on factors such as the extent of damage, the patient's oral health, personal preferences, and budget. It's best to consult with a dentist to determine the most suitable option for your situation.
