Crowns
A crown is shaped like a natural tooth and can be comprised of porcelain or gold. There are a variety of options available, depending on where your tooth is located and personal choice.
The type of crown or veneer placed depends on several factors such as tooth position, quality and quantity of remaining tooth structure and biting forces present being some of them. Your dentist will carefully consider all these factors and most importantly what is best for the long-term functional and biological health of the tooth.
Fillings
If you develop decay, lose a filling, or fracture a tooth, a new filling may be the appropriate solution. Your dentist will assess the tooth carefully and may recommend a tooth-coloured composite filling, which is designed to blend in naturally with your smile.
Composite fillings bond securely to the tooth and are strong enough to handle normal biting and chewing. To keep you comfortable, the area is usually numbed with local anaesthetic before treatment begins. The filling is then shaped and polished to match the natural contours of your tooth and ensure it fits comfortably with your bite.
