Dental Restorations

Dental restorations repair or replace damaged or missing teeth, helping restore both function and appearance. Here is an overview of common restoration options.

Inlays and Onlays

Inlays and onlays are used to repair teeth with moderate decay or damage that is too extensive for a filling but doesn't require a full crown.

Veneers

Veneers are thin shells bonded to the front of teeth to improve appearance, often used to correct discoloration, chips, or gaps.

Crowns

A crown covers an entire damaged tooth, restoring its shape, strength, and appearance.

Bridge

A dental bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring an artificial tooth to the surrounding natural teeth or implants.

Dentures

Dentures are removable replacements for missing teeth, available as full or partial sets depending on a patient's needs.

Same Day Dental Restorations

Some dental offices offer same day restorations using the E4D dentist system, allowing crowns and other restorations to be designed and placed in a single visit.
