restorative dentistry
Revitalise the form, function and appearance of your smile
enrich your life
Recent advancements in the field of restorative dentistry have meant that we can repair smiles that have suffered extensive damage or even tooth loss better than ever before.
If your smile isn’t as bright and beautiful as it once was, then restorative treatment may be the perfect solution for you.
Some of the restorative dental treatments we offer at Cairns Family and Cosmetic Dental Group include:
Implants & Dentures
Endodontic Treatment
Implants & dentures
Tooth loss can have a dramatic impact on your lifestyle and self-confidence
These restorative treatments can help rebuild your smile, so you can continue to enjoy a full life.
Dental Implants
This innovative tooth replacement technology is made from a titanium material that is highly compatible with your natural jawbone material. Over a period of months, these implants are fully accepted by your body as part of your biological makeup and form a permanently solid foundation for prosthetic tooth replacements such as Crowns.
Dental implants effectively mimic the form, function, and appearance of a natural tooth better than any other restorative treatment.
Dentures
Dentures are removable fixtures that can be used to replace missing teeth, whether you are missing some or all of them. Partial Dentures are a suitable option for patients who lack the necessary support in their surrounding teeth for Crown or Bridging treatment.
Full Dentures are a perfect option if you are already missing all of your teeth, or may involve extraction of remaining teeth and the construction of a denture after your teeth have been removed.
Why replace missing teeth?
Tooth loss does not only influence the appearance of your smile, it can also have a dramatic influence on your oral health.
Tooth loss can contribute to jaw bone deterioration, gum recession, a misaligned bite and TMJ dysfunction, which is why it is important to seek a suitable restorative dental treatment as soon as possible if you have suffered tooth loss.
Endodontic Treatment
Endodontic treatment can actively save an infected tooth from extraction
Traditionally if the nerve tissue of a tooth became infected the whole tooth would have to be extracted but with endodontic treatment (or root canal therapy) our dentists can save your tooth from extraction by simply removing the infected nerve tissue.
Contrary to popular belief, root canal therapy performed at our Cairns dental practices should not cause any more discomfort than that of a normal tooth filling.
