Southlands
Dental offers
a range of general restorative dentistry services to help patients restore and improve the function and appearance of their teeth.
One of the most common services provided is the restoration of broken down or decayed teeth using tooth coloured restoration material. This procedure involves a thorough examination of the tooth to assess the extent of the damage, followed by a discussion with you about the most appropriate treatment option.
Once the decision has been made to proceed with restorative treatment, you will then be given a local anesthetic to ensure that the procedure is pain-free. The tooth is then prepared so that the restoration material can effectively repair the tooth, providing strength and durability.
During the procedure, the skilled team of dental professionals at Southlands Dental will carefully remove any decay or damaged tissue from the tooth, before cleaning and preparing the area for the restoration material.
The tooth coloured restoration material is then applied and shaped to match the natural contours of the tooth, providing a seamless and long-lasting restoration. This type of restorative treatment not only improves the appearance of the tooth but also helps to restore its function and prevent further damage.
