Restorative Care
When teeth are damaged, worn or missing, we restore their strength, comfort and appearance with durable, high-quality treatments.
Understanding your options
About Restorative Care
Restorative dentistry repairs damaged teeth and considers options for replacing missing ones. A small area of decay may be treated with a filling, while a more weakened tooth may need a crown. Bridges, dentures and implants have different requirements and maintenance needs. Root canal treatment may be considered when the tissue inside a tooth is inflamed or infected.

Your care journey
What to expect
Find the cause
An examination and any necessary imaging help assess damage, infection, gum support and your bite.
Choose a treatment plan
Compare suitable options, alternatives, risks, costs and the possibility of further assessment or referral.
Restore and maintain
Complete treatment over the required visits, check comfort and your bite, and review care instructions.
Looking after your smile
Follow the instructions for your specific procedure. Keep restorations and the surrounding gums clean, including under bridges where advised. Contact the clinic if your bite feels uneven or pain is worsening. Repaired teeth and replacement teeth still need regular dental assessment.
Common questions
When is a crown needed instead of a filling?
A crown may be recommended when a tooth has lost substantial structure or needs added protection. The decision depends on the remaining tooth, existing cracks and biting forces.
Is everyone a candidate for a dental implant?
No. Gum health, bone support, medical history and other factors affect suitability. Additional assessment, treatment or specialist referral may be required.
How many appointments will I need?
It depends on the procedure and complexity. Some repairs can be completed in one visit; crowns, dentures, implants or more involved care may require several visits and healing time.
