Tooth colored fillings provide a functional and esthetic result and are offered to restore decayed teeth or as replacement for mercury containing fillings. Tooth colored fillings can be composite bonding or porcelain.
Composite (bonded) veneers can provide a fresh and pleasing appearance of your front teeth in case of persistent staining (not responding to whitening), mild to moderate misalignment or mild breakage or decay.
Porcelain fused to noble metal or all porcelain crowns are indicated when restoring teeth with fracture lines or badly broken and decayed teeth to provide long lasting function and pleasing esthetics. Crowns also perform a protective role as a final restoration after root canal treatment.
Fixed bridges may be used to restore function in case of missing teeth. They can be made of either all porcelain or porcelain fused to metal.
If you experience symptoms like unresolving or worsening sensitivity to cold or hot, pain on biting and chewing a root canal treatment will relieve you of your symptoms. A root canal treatment may also be used to allow the placement of a post to retain a crown in badly broken or short teeth.
