The goal of restorative dentistry is to preserve damaged or diseased teeth for as long as they can be a functional part of your smile. Restoring the natural smile is essential for preventing future oral health issues and for easing day-to-day activities, such as eating properly and speaking clearly.
There are different options for aesthetic restorative dental procedures. TEETH @ Tiong Bahru Dental Clinic works closely with all our patients to understand their needs and priorities, and formulates a customised treatment plan to restore a healthy, beautiful smile for you. We offer a range of options to restore your teeth to their pristine state and function, providing alternatives to tooth extractions.
Direct tooth restorative dental care is a fast and effective way to replace a damaged or missing tooth. Your dentist will place a filling in your prepared cavity immediately after the initial treatment procedure, such as after a root canal treatment. Direct restorative dental procedures typically require only one visit to our dental clinic for completion.
Indirect tooth restoration is a procedure that involves the fabrication of laboratory-made tooth replacements. This dental option typically requires more than one visit. The natural-coloured tooth is fabricated from safe, metal-free sculpted porcelain to create high-quality:
- Dental crowns are designed to completely cover your tooth.
- Tooth-supported bridges are used when implant surgery is not possible or undesirable.
- Inlays serve as stronger, more durable alternatives to fillings, particularly when restoring large cavities.
- Onlays are used to protect the occlusal surface of a tooth in situations where a full crown is not necessary.
- Removable dentures are placed in a jaw where some teeth remain or are fully replaced in an arch.
- Implant-supported crowns, bridges and dentures.
Restored teeth are made from strong, durable materials that are hardened to create a smooth, natural-looking finish. Restorative dentistry services in Singapore are typically painless and can benefit your oral health by keeping teeth straighter. However, it still requires healthy oral hygiene habits to prevent plaque build-up that leads to the onset of tooth decay and gum disease.
Beyond the oral health benefits, broken or missing teeth can impact your self-confidence and make it more difficult to chew certain foods. Restorative dentistry has helped many people concerned with personal aesthetics restore brighter, more confident, natural smiles.
