Dental Restorations

Your smile is a reflection of your confidence, and at BM Cosmetic, we believe that everyone deserves to showcase their brightest and healthiest smile.

However, dental issues can sometimes hinder that dazzling grin. The good news is that there are a range of solutions available to rejuvenate your teeth and help you regain the beauty of your smile. These solutions fall under dental restoration.

What is Dental Restoration?

Dental restoration is the art and science of repairing, rebuilding, or enhancing the appearance and function of your teeth. It encompasses various procedures and techniques that aim to restore the health, beauty, and vitality of your smile.

Dental restorations address a multitude of issues, including cavities, damaged teeth, missing teeth, and more.

Who Needs Dental Restorations?

Dental restorations are beneficial for a broad range of individuals, including those who:

  • Have cavities or tooth decay.
  • Experience tooth damage due to injury or wear.
  • Suffer from tooth loss.
  • Wish to enhance the aesthetics of their smile.

Common Dental Restoration Techniques

  1. Fillings
  • Purpose: Dental fillings are frequently employed to treat cavities caused by tooth decay. Cavities are small holes or damage in the teeth resulting from bacterial erosion. Fillings restore the tooth’s integrity and prevent further decay.
  • Procedure: During the filling procedure, the dentist removes the decayed portion of the tooth, cleans the area, and fills it with a suitable material. Modern fillings often use composite resin, a tooth-coloured material that blends with your natural teeth. This not only halts the progression of decay but also preserves the aesthetics of your smile.
  • Benefits: Dental fillings are minimally invasive and provide both functional and aesthetic benefits. They restore the tooth’s strength and appearance, ensuring you can confidently eat, speak, and smile.
  1. Crowns
  • Purpose: Dental crowns, also known as dental caps, serve as protective shields for compromised teeth. They are used to cover and strengthen teeth that have been damaged either due to decay, trauma, or extensive dental work.
  • Procedure: Crowns are customised to fit over the entire visible portion of the tooth. They can be crafted from various materials, including porcelain, a material that closely matches the colour of your natural teeth. Crowns not only enhance the tooth’s functionality but also its aesthetics, making it look indistinguishable from the rest of your smile.
  • Benefits: Dental crowns provide a durable solution to protect and restore damaged teeth. They offer a natural appearance and can significantly extend the life of a tooth.
  1. Bridges
  • Purpose: Dental bridges are a solution for those with missing teeth. These dental restorations consist of artificial teeth, known as pontics, anchored to adjacent healthy teeth or dental implants.
  • Procedure: The procedure involves preparing the adjacent teeth (known as abutments) to support the bridge. The pontic is then attached to the abutments to fill up the gap left by the missing tooth. Dental bridges can be made from many materials to match your natural teeth seamlessly.
  • Benefits: Dental bridges are an effective way to replace missing teeth, restoring your ability to chew and speak comfortably. They also help maintain the alignment of your remaining teeth.
  1. Implants
  • Purpose: Dental implants are the gold standard for permanent tooth replacement. They are used to replace missing teeth and provide a natural-looking, long-lasting solution.
  • Procedure: Dental implants involve the surgical placement of small titanium posts into the jawbone. These posts serve as sturdy foundations for individual replacement teeth or dentures. The bone fuses with the titanium and creates a secure and stable anchor for the new teeth.
  • Benefits: Dental implants offer a permanent and highly functional solution for missing teeth. They not only look and feel natural but also promote healthy jawbone preservation.
  1. Dentures
  • Purpose: Dentures are a versatile and cost-effective solution to replace multiple missing teeth. They come in full and partial options and are designed for optimal comfort and aesthetics.
  • Procedure: The process of obtaining dentures involves taking precise measurements and impressions of your mouth. This offers a custom fit that is comfortable and stable. Dentures are removable and can be supported by dental implants for enhanced stability.
  • Benefits: Dentures are an accessible way to replace multiple missing teeth and restore your ability to eat and speak confidently. Modern dentures offer improved comfort and aesthetics.

Common Precautions Before Dental Restoration

Before undergoing dental restoration, it’s important to consider a few precautions:

  1. Consultation: Consult your dentist to discuss your dental concerns, goals, and the best restoration options for you.
  1. Dental Health: Ensure that your oral health is in good condition. Any existing dental issues, like gum disease, should be addressed before proceeding with restoration.
  2. Customization: Work with your dentist to determine the most suitable restoration materials and techniques for your unique needs and goals.
  3. Aftercare: Discuss post-restoration care and maintenance with your dentist to ensure the longevity of your dental work.
