RESTORATIVE DENTISTRY

Treatments We Offer:

From treatment of a single tooth to full-mouth rehabilitation, we deliver a range of treatment options. Here are a few common restorations we may recommend upon your initial consultation:

• Fillings
  At Purity Dental, we use composite resin restorations, also known as ‘white fillings’. It is the most versatile and effective filling material. Composite fillings replace missing tooth structure whilst replicating natural tooth color. This essentially leaves your tooth functioning and looking as natural as possible. Occasionally, teeth that have significant decay or damage will need restorations made from stronger materials, such as porcelain. This material is much more resilient to wear and tear, and can often provide better protection for the teeth.
• Dental Implants
  A dental implant is essentially a titanium post fused into your jaw bone that acts as the root of your tooth. A prosthetic tooth is then secured on top. This is considered one of the most durable and long-term solutions available. It is also designed to look and function exactly as your normal tooth, if not a bit stronger. A healthy amount of bone should be available to secure the dental implant to the jaw, however. With the help of a dental x-ray, we’ll be able to determine if this is a viable treatment for you.
• Crowns & Bridges
  If you have a broken tooth, a crown can be placed on top to protect it from further damage. Ceramic or porcelain dental crowns are molded to take on the natural contours and shape of your teeth and are carefully matched to the exact shade of your smile. A bridge is a prosthetic tooth that (as the name suggests) bridges a missing tooth gap while being secured to adjacent teeth.
• Dentures
  Dentures can be used to replace your entire set of teeth or partially missing teeth by typically covering the gums and the roof of your mouth. These can be removable or supported by implants to be a more fixed restoration (also known as overdentures). If there are just a number of missing teeth in need of replacement, partial dentures may also be a viable solution.
