When Your Dentist Recommends Restorative Work

Hopefully, you begin each routine dental exam feeling confident that you will not have oral health issues that need attention. You can feel more sure of your dental health when you keep up with a daily routine that thoroughly fights bacteria and food particle buildup. It can also help to be consistent about scheduling preventive services. In the event that you do have something wrong that requires treatment, Sunny Smiles can help make sure that the matter is properly handled while still preserving your smile! Our approach to restorative dental work can ensure that your tooth remains safe and secure. Whether you need a dental filling or a dental crown, we can provide reliable functional support as well as protection from appliances that are made to match your healthy enamel.

Restorative Services Address Serious Problems With Your Smile

Restorative dentistry takes on problems with your smile that will not resolve on their own. Cavities and physical injuries can create problems that result in irreversible damage to your enamel. Unfortunately, you will not be able to simply wait for healing to occur; to keep the tooth in question safe, you will need to protect it with a dental filling or dental crown. The good news is that the approach we take to caring for you will help you by preserving the appearance and condition of your tooth, and by offering important bite support.

Treating A Cavity With A Discreet Filling

Dental fillings are the more conservative restorative treatment option that we can recommend. You can rely on this service to take care of dental decay without affecting how you look, as we use a resin substance that imitates healthy enamel. We apply the material directly at the site where decay formed. In doing so, we can ensure that it remains safe from physical harm or infection. It will harden and bond to the surface of your tooth to provide a remarkable and lasting hold. At subsequent checkups, we can look out for fillings to make sure they remain in good condition just as we take care to closely check your enamel.

Using A Crown To Restore Your Vulnerable Tooth

What will happen if a cavity is too large to make care with a filling possible? In this situation, or in a situation where a physical injury needs to be addressed, we can discuss treatment with a dental crown. Crowns surround teeth to provide safety against wear and tear, infection, and other concerns. A crown will be custom-made so that we can ensure it fits properly, and it will offer enough functional support to let you bite and chew like normal.
