Wallacia Dental takes pride in offering a wide range of dental services
At Wallacia Dental, we understand how important it is to maintain a healthy, beautiful smile. If you have a cavity or damaged tooth, fillings and restorations are essential for restoring both the function and appearance of your teeth. Our team offers a variety of high-quality filling and restoration options to suit your needs and ensure your smile remains strong and beautiful.
Fillings and restorations help repair damaged or decayed teeth, preventing further damage and restoring their strength and function. Without prompt treatment, cavities and tooth damage can worsen, leading to more serious issues such as infection, tooth loss, or gum disease. Timely intervention can protect your oral health and prevent costly procedures in the future.
At Wallacia Dental, we offer several types of fillings and restorations to ensure your teeth are properly treated:
Tooth-Coloured Fillings: Also known as composite fillings, these are made from a durable resin that is designed to blend seamlessly with the natural color of your teeth. Tooth-coloured fillings are an ideal option for fillings in visible areas, as they provide a more natural, aesthetic look compared to traditional metal fillings.
Amalgam Fillings: Made from a combination of metals, including silver, mercury, and tin, amalgam fillings are a durable and cost-effective option for restoring molars and back teeth that are less visible. Although not as aesthetic as tooth-coloured fillings, they are strong and long-lasting.
Porcelain Crowns: If a tooth is significantly damaged or decayed, a porcelain crown may be needed to restore its strength and appearance. Crowns completely cover the damaged tooth, providing a natural look and protecting the tooth from further damage. Porcelain crowns are highly durable and can be customized to match the shape and color of your natural teeth.
Inlays and Onlays: Inlays and onlays are custom-made restorations that fit into or onto a tooth, offering a more conservative approach than crowns. They are used when a tooth has moderate decay or damage, providing a durable and aesthetically pleasing solution. Inlays are placed within the tooth, while onlays cover the chewing surface.
Dental Bridges: If you’re missing one or more teeth, a dental bridge can restore both function and appearance. A bridge is anchored to adjacent healthy teeth or dental implants to fill the gap, preventing the surrounding teeth from shifting.
Veneers: For teeth that are chipped, cracked, or discolored, dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells that cover the front surface of the teeth. Veneers are an excellent option for improving the aesthetics of your smile while maintaining the integrity of your natural teeth.
Initial Consultation: During your first visit, we will assess the condition of your teeth and discuss your options for fillings or restorations. We may take X-rays to evaluate the extent of decay or damage and determine the best course of action for treatment.
Treatment: Depending on the type of restoration needed, the treatment may involve removing any decayed areas of the tooth and preparing it for the filling, crown, inlay, or bridge. We ensure that you are comfortable throughout the process, using local anesthesia as needed.
Customization: For restorations like crowns, inlays, onlays, and veneers, we will take impressions or digital scans of your teeth to create a custom restoration that fits perfectly. If you need a crown or bridge, we will typically place a temporary restoration until your permanent one is ready.
Final Placement: Once your custom restoration is ready, we will place it carefully and check for proper fit and function. Any necessary adjustments will be made to ensure your comfort and satisfaction.
Post-Treatment Care: After your filling or restoration, we’ll provide you with detailed aftercare instructions to ensure the longevity of your treatment. This may include avoiding hard foods, maintaining good oral hygiene, and scheduling regular check-ups.
High-Quality Materials: We use the latest, high-quality materials to ensure your fillings and restorations are durable, long-lasting, and aesthetically pleasing.
