Types of Dental Restorations at Delwyn Dick L. DDS
Composite Fillings
Composite materials and adhesive techniques have become the foundation of modern restorative dentistry replacing amalgam. This type of filling will match the color of existing teeth and bonds directly to the teeth making them stronger. This material requires less drilling and metal-free restorations.
Porcelain Crowns
Through artistry and laboratory technique, we achieve outstanding results restoring teeth with all-porcelain crowns and veneers. The cutting edge technology of adhesive bonding dentistry makes these restorations second to none. By removing unhealthy or cracked tooth structure and replacing it with natural looking porcelain, which fits the tooth like a “thimble” or “jacket,” we protect the remaining tooth structure and achieve a beautiful result.
Dental Implants
Dental Implants enable us to replace missing teeth giving back proper chewing function and providing the most natural aesthetic result. Implants provide an additional option in the case of a single missing tooth. In the past, extensive crown and bridge work was the method typically used. Today, with the conservative approach of dental implants, unnecessary tooth structure removal can be avoided.
