Dental bridges are an effective way to replace missing teeth and restore both the function and appearance of your smile. They are typically made from precious metals for durability, with porcelain bonded to the metal for an aesthetic appearance when the bridge is visible. In some cases, non-precious metals are used in the base to provide added strength, ensuring a sturdy solution for tooth replacement.

A dental crown is a protective cap that covers a damaged or decayed tooth, providing strength and restoring its appearance. It is held securely in place with dental adhesive or cement, and is commonly used for a range of dental issues. Crowns are ideal for protecting badly decayed teeth, restoring teeth with large fillings, and correcting cosmetic concerns like irregular shapes or severe discolouration.

Today, more people are choosing composite fillings (also known as tooth-coloured fillings) to restore their teeth. These fillings offer a natural, aesthetic alternative to the traditional silver amalgam fillings, providing a discreet solution for cavities, especially for those concerned about the appearance of their smile.

Dental implants are a highly effective and long-lasting solution for replacing missing teeth. A dental implant consists of a small titanium post that is surgically placed into the jawbone, acting as the root of a natural tooth. Once the implant has integrated with the bone, it can support a replacement tooth, fixed bridge, or dentures, providing a stable and functional solution for tooth loss.

Dentures are removable prosthetic devices designed to replace missing teeth. Often referred to as "false teeth," dentures restore function and appearance, allowing individuals to eat, speak, and smile with confidence. Dentures are typically made from acrylic or a combination of acrylic and metal, providing a durable and natural-looking solution for tooth loss.

Fissures are deep pits and grooves found on the chewing surfaces of the back teeth (molars and premolars). These fissures are often too narrow for toothbrush bristles to clean effectively, providing an ideal environment for bacteria to thrive and potentially cause tooth decay. Fissure sealants are a preventive dental treatment used to protect these vulnerable areas from cavities and decay.
