Restorative Dentistry at Smiles On Grenfell
If you have damaged or missing teeth, we want to help restore not only your smile, but also your self-esteem. Restorative dentistry offers many benefits: it mends damaged teeth, enhances oral functionality, and brings back the natural charm of an individual’s smile. It also helps prevent further harm, as well as minimising the likelihood of cavities and other dental health problems.
Dentures
Dentures are detachable prosthetic teeth designed to substitute missing ones. These synthetic teeth are typically constructed from acrylic to closely resemble your natural teeth. The foundation of a denture, known as a plate, is usually crafted from either acrylic or metal. We provide complete, partial, and implant-supported dentures. Given the risk of damage if they are accidentally dropped, we also offer denture repair services.
Dental Implants
A dental implant is a synthetic root that can be embedded into the jawbone. It is fabricated using materials, like titanium, that are biocompatible with the human body. Once fused with your bone, the implant can support a crown, a bridge, or secure a full denture. With over thirty years of successful use and a high success rate, implants function and feel like your natural teeth.
Bridges
For those with missing teeth, a fixed bridge is an excellent restorative choice offered by our Adelaide CBD family dentist. Dental bridges resemble three or four dental crowns joined side by side. However, only the end crowns are functional; the porcelain teeth between them fill in the “gap” left by a lost tooth.
When multiple teeth are missing, traditional solutions often suggest a removable partial denture. Thankfully, implants are sturdy enough to support a longer dental bridge, which can replace up to three or four teeth simultaneously.
