Dental restorations refer to the practice of repairing injured tooth structure with a dental material of some type.  The injury can be decay, fractures, or even developmental defects. Most dental restorations are divided into two main groups direct and indirect.

Direct restorations are what most people refer to as fillings.  Here at Valley Smiles we place composite restorations, which are a tooth colored filling.  In this process we will remove the decay, then place a malleable material into the cavity, harden the material with a blue light, and then shape the restoration to return the tooth to good form and function.

Indirect restorations are when the damage is more severe and refers to inlays, onlays, crowns, and bridges.  This usually involves two appointments where first the decay is removed, and the tooth is prepared to fit a crown.  During this appointment, an impression of the tooth will be taken and the tooth will be fitted with a temporary crown.  The impression is then sent to a laboratory where the crown is manufactured.  After about two weeks the crown will arrive at our office where we can replace the temporary with the permanent crown that should last for many years.

If you or a loved one need a tooth restored, please call our friendly team to schedule a consultation.
