Methods for Restoration

Crowns

A crown is an artificial tooth or "cap" which mounts over an existing tooth to restore the tooth's original shape and color or to anchor a dental bridge.

Bridge

Bridges are artificial teeth which span missing teeth. Usually anchored to adjacent teeth or crowns.

Inlay

An inlay is a dental restoration, usually made of porcelain or gold, fitted to a cavity in a tooth and cemented into place.

Onlay

An onlay is a dental restoration, usually made of porcelain or gold, fitted to a cavity in the tooth and cemented into place. An onlay covers the occlusal (top center) part of the tooth and covers the cusps.

Fillings

A restoration made of a resin (plastic) material usually fitted for smaller cavities.

Implants

A dental implant is an artificial tooth replacement. This procedure is an alternative procedure to a bridge. With an implant only the missing tooth is replaced without impacting the adjacent teeth. Usually requires two visits for completion.

Veneers

Veneers are made out of porcelain and cover only the front of the tooth versus a crown which covers the whole tooth. Either done for cosmetic purposes or if a tooth has considerable wear.

Dentures

A set or artificial teeth used when a patient has lost their real teeth.

Bonding

A basic restorative procedure used for smaller surfaces of the tooth. A resin (plastic) material is used for this procedure.

Root Canal Treatment

A procedure which removes the pulp tissue of a tooth due to decay or injury.
