The dental professionals at Toronto Smile Centre offer restorative dentistry services to correct a range of dental problems, such as tooth decay or damaged teeth, to restore strength and prevent future damage. Restorative dentistry focuses on treating the structure of teeth to repair them, correcting dental problems, and restoring dental health. We offer a wide range of services, including dental crowns, fillings, dental implants, bridges, and dentures.
Although any treatment has risks, restorative procedures are effective with high success rates. There is minimal discomfort, and most treatments are not lengthy.
Leaving dental problems untreated leads to significant oral health issues. Infection can spread until life threatening, and missing teeth leads to loss of bone mass and further tooth loss. Other conditions can be caused or aggravated, too.
Dental issues are very painful, affect how you eat and speak, cause bad breath, and a range of other concerns ranging from inconvenient to critical. A dental restoration procedure can repair damaged, missing, crooked, or decayed teeth.
At Toronto Smile Centre, our commitment to restoring and enhancing the natural beauty of your smile is evident in the wide range of services we offer. While our focus on restorative dentistry addresses issues like decayed, damaged, or missing teeth, we also provide specialized treatments tailored to individual needs. For those who have lost a tooth or multiple teeth, our Dental Implants in Toronto offer a permanent and natural-looking solution. If you're looking to bridge the gap caused by missing teeth, our Dental Bridges in Toronto can seamlessly restore your smile. For teeth that are damaged but salvageable, Dental Crowns in Toronto act as protective caps, preserving the tooth's integrity. In cases of deep infections, our Root Canal Therapy in Toronto aims to save the affected tooth by removing the infected tissue. And for minor cavities or to replace old amalgam fillings, our White Fillings in Toronto provide a discreet and durable solution. Whatever your dental concern, our team is here to guide you through the best restorative options for your oral health.
Cavities are extremely common, but there are other common issues, too, such as gum disease or trauma damage to teeth. We offer a range of services to address these issues, including fillings, gum disease treatments, dental crowns, and other services.
Dental fillings are used to treat tooth decay. The decay is removed, and a filling added so the tooth isn't weakened and further infection is prevented. We offer composite resin fillings, as they are tooth-coloured, can be completed in one visit and are good for even very small cavities.
Dental crowns are caps that sit over and are bonded to a natural tooth to restore worn down, broken or heavily decayed teeth, or whenever a tooth needs more support, such as with a hairline fracture or after a root canal procedure.
A root canal is necessary for saving a tooth that has an infection in the tooth roots. Root canal treatments clean out infected tissue from inside the roots of a tooth. The cavity area is then disinfected and filled.
We understand that you may be anxious about needing dental restorations, for a variety of reasons. We are proud of our friendly, relaxed, and non-judgmental atmosphere, to put you at ease. If you are concerned about pain, we provide anaesthetic to minimize any discomfort. We offer sedation services for longer procedures, to keep our patients more relaxed and comfortable; if you have dental anxiety, we can also offer this for all treatments, so you can get the care you need.
For those with a missing tooth or multiple teeth, we offer tooth replacement options for our patients, including dental implants, full and partial dentures, and bridges. While most people are concerned about the appearance of a gap, it is important to replace missing teeth to prevent the other teeth from shifting and potentially falling out, too, loss of bone mass, and other oral health issues.
Dental implants replace not only the visible portion of teeth but the tooth root. A post is inserted into and fused with your jaw bone, and a dental crown attached to replace your missing tooth. Dental implants are a permanent solution, meaning they are not removable, and are the closest option to your own, natural teeth. Dental implants prevent shifting, further tooth loss, and bone loss.
Bridges are also permanent restorations to replace missing teeth. Dental crowns are bonded onto the teeth surrounding a gap, to strengthen them enough to support a bridge. The bridge, or set of false teeth, are attached to the crowns with wires.
We also offer full or partial dentures. Full, or complete, dentures, replace all teeth in the upper or lower jaw. Partial dentures fill in areas of one or more missing teeth.
Materials for the tooth portions of these restorations will vary, including porcelain, ceramic, acrylic, or other materials, but they will all be tooth coloured to match your natural teeth.
Restorative dentistry aims to save a tooth where possible, as it is nearly always preferable for your oral health to keep your own. It also looks to strengthen and restore a tooth for dental health and better functioning. A key focus of restorative dentistry is to prevent larger oral health issues from developing, too. We offer restorative procedures to achieve this.
To treat decay in teeth, we offer white fillings, for a nearly invisible restoration that returns strength to the tooth structure. Dental crowns help support and strengthen teeth that are weakened by decay, structural damage like cracks, or other issues.
Root canal therapy is necessary to save a tooth that has infection in the inner soft tissues of the tooth roots. The infection is cleaned out of the root canal area, and the area filled with a dental material to prevent further infection and support the tooth.
We offer options to replace missing teeth, including dental implants, bridges, dentures. Dental implants, with posts implanted into the jaw and dental crowns offer a permanent solution. We also offer bridges and full or partial dentures to replace missing teeth.
While restorative dentistry is focused on improving strength, function and health, cosmetic dentistry is focused on aesthetics. While a restorative procedure often has a positive cosmetic side effect, the key goal is health and function. Similarly, a cosmetic procedure may have dental health benefits, such as dental implants improving bone mass in the jaw or veneers strengthening teeth. Also, having a restorative procedure done may present an opportune time to have a cosmetic dentistry procedure done, too.
