Restorative Dentistry

Having a great smile is what all of us desire. But, oral concerns such as discoloration, cavities, malocclusion, external damage to the teeth, and infections ruin the aesthetics and functionality of the mouth. In such cases, the patient would require restorative treatment to bring the teeth and gums back to their original condition.

Our restorative services

Dental Crowns: Crowns help restore teeth that are broken, cracked, chipped, discolored, and misshapen. They are cap-like dental restorations that cover the entire tooth's surface and give them a cosmetic and functional makeover.

Dental Bridges: Bridges are prosthetic teeth used to replace lost natural ones. They do not require surgery and are held in position by crowns on either side. Since they are made from porcelain, they perfectly mimic the appearance of real teeth.

Tooth-colored fillings: A filling material is used to fill cavities, cover minor cracks, and also to alter the shape of misshapen and chipped teeth. They are made from a tooth-colored composite resin and offer high durability and longevity.

Bonding: Bonding is a procedure mainly used to alter the shape of misshapen and chipped teeth. A photosensitive resinous material is used as the bonding agent along with a high-intensity curing light. It is usually applied in layers over the tooth.

Dental Implants: Implants are widely used as a permanent replacement for natural teeth. They are composed of titanium studs (implanted into the jawbone) and porcelain crowns (fixed to the metal implants to act as the tooth crown).

Inlays and Onlays: Inlays are customized fillings that are fabricated according to the shape of the cavity. They fit perfectly in the cavity and offer excellent sealing properties. Onlays are similar to crowns, but they only cover the cusp (the biting surface) of the tooth. They are used to restore teeth that are severely worn out.

Dental Veneers: Veneers are thin wafer-like restorations that cover the frontal surface of a tooth. They are custom fabricated according to its contour from tooth-colored ceramic and used to treat cracked, chipped, and discolored teeth.
