Following a complete exam and diagnosis, we strive to manage oral health problems by restoring the mouths function and aesthetic states. Tooth structure can be missing due to tooth decay, where deterioration of a previous restoration or fracture.
What options do patients have?
At River Valley Dental we offer all aspects of restorations. For example:
-
Fillings
Gold, Silver or White plastic composite fillings are all options when dealing with tooth decay.
-
Full porcelain Crowns (restorative)
When a tooth is damaged but not lost, a Crown can be used to restore its appearance, shape, strength and size to fill the area of need. Also referred to as ‘’Cap’’ the Crown will help protect the tooth moving forward while acting like your natural tooth.
-
Veneers (cosmetic)
Dental Veneers are wafer thin, custom made shells of tooth-covered material placed on the front surface of the tooth in order to improve its appearance, size, color, shape.
-
Inlays & Onlays (restorative)
Porcelain Inlays are a strong, durable and a great aesthetic alternative to white fillings. Because of the strength of the material, they are usually ideal for your back teeth. Unlike crowns, Inlays or Onlays do not require much prep time and leave much of the natural tooth intact.
-
Bridges (cosmetic)
If you are missing one or more teeth, you may notice a difference in chewing and speaking. A good quality dental bridge can serve as a valuable solution. Not only will it help fulfill that smile, they also help prevent serious issues from developing with tooth lost. The bridge can help prevent your teeth from shifting and provide the support for a healthy jaw function.
