Restorative dentistry brings a damaged tooth back to good function and appearance. Common causes include decay, trauma, grinding and wear, and treatment aims to stop further damage.
What we offer
- Composite fillings: tooth-coloured fillings that match your natural teeth, need little removal of healthy tooth and bond firmly to the tooth.
- Inlays and onlays: custom-made restorations for moderate to heavy decay, when a filling is not enough but a full crown is not yet needed.
- Crowns: caps that cover a tooth that is badly broken down, has had root canal treatment, or needs support for a bridge or implant.
- Dowels and core build-up: rebuild a tooth that has lost a large part of its structure, so a crown can be placed on it.
- Root canal treatment: removes diseased pulp and seals the canals. We follow a one-sitting approach where possible, using rotary instruments to keep you comfortable.
Save the natural tooth
A healthy restored tooth is almost always better than an artificial one. We will explain every option before recommending a treatment.
