Restoration

This is a restorative treatment in which a tooth-colored resin (composite) material is applied and hardened with a special light, which ultimately "bonds" the material to the tooth to restore its natural appearance.

The procedure is often used:

• To repair decayed teeth (composite resins are used to fill cavities)

• To repair chipped or cracked teeth

• To protect a portion of the tooth's root that has been exposed when gums recede

Indirect restoration (filling) consisting of a solid substance (gold or porcelain) fitted to a cavity in a tooth and cemented into place. An onlay is the same as an inlay, except that it extends to replace a cusp.

When decay or fracture incorporate areas of a tooth that make composite restorations essentially inadequate, an "onlay" might be indicated. Similar to an inlay, an onlay is an indirect restoration which incorporates a cusp or cusps by covering or onlaying the missing cusps.

This cosmetic treatment option can help a patient to have more natural-looking teeth.

A veneer is a thin covering that is placed over the front (visible) part of the tooth.  Veneers can be used to fix gaps between teeth or improve the appearance of teeth that are badly stained, misshapen or out of alignment.

Veneers are available both as ceramic veneers or composite resin veneers.  Dr. Sabet will help you choose the material best for you based on durability, stain resistance and appearance.

This restorative treatment is the latest method to permanently replace missing teeth with a natural looking and practical result. This is the first step of a two step process.

Unlike other forms of tooth replacement, Surgical Titanium Implants mimic the nature of a real tooth, allowing the patient easiest use and maintenance (i.e. brushing, flossing and other general functions). Implants are traditionally made of titanium, but ceramic implants, such as zirconia, have been developed as an alternative option.

Dr. Sabet will give you a referral (specialist) to do the surgical placement of implant(s).

This step can be done at our office.

This restorative treatment is the second step to the Surgical Implant process.  During this phase, the patient will complete the abutment and crowning of their new Titanium implants.

Unlike other forms of tooth replacement, Surgical Titanium Implants mimic the nature of a real tooth, allowing the patient easiest use and maintenance (i.e. brushing, flossing and other general functions).

This restorative treatment protects the natural prepared tooth from further damage while maintaining aesthetic and functional harmony within the mouth.

This procedure is needed when a tooth is badly broken; there are existing large fillings, or a large area of tooth decay, because a filling isn’t strong enough.
