Achieving a Natural Look through Dental Restoration

Dental restoration, often referred to as a ‘filling’, is a straightforward and effective method for repairing a decayed tooth. This approach allows patients to preserve their natural teeth for an extended period. At Smile Hub Dental Clinic, our prosthodontic specialist collaborates with the top dental laboratories to create high-quality restorations. We use modern, tooth-colored materials that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, departing from the conventional grey amalgam.

Our primary goal is to strike a balance between long-term functionality and enhanced aesthetics, ensuring that your restored teeth look and feel natural.

What should I expect from my appointment?

To ensure your comfort, a topical anaesthetic cream will be applied to the gum surrounding the affected tooth. Following that, a local anaesthetic will be administered, allowing us to proceed with the removal of decay from the tooth in preparation for the restorative treatment. The tooth-colored composite material will then be carefully placed in layers within the cavity, reinforcing its core and structure. Each layer will be exposed to a special light to expedite the setting process of the restoration. We will then meticulously shape the restoration, aiming for a realistic appearance that seamlessly integrates with your natural teeth and does not disrupt your biting and chewing function.

Is it Painful?

We firmly believe that dentistry should not cause any unnecessary discomfort. We are committed to creating a comfortable, relaxed, and stress-free environment for all our patients throughout the entire process. Our team of specialists utilises a range of contemporary techniques aimed at minimising pain and maximising your ease.

Rest assured that your well-being is our top priority, and we strive to deliver dental care that is as painless as possible.

Will I need Sedation?

In most cases, sedation is not necessary for restorative treatment unless the patient experiences anxiety about the dental experience. We fully understand that visiting the dentist can be an intimidating prospect, which is why our team of clinicians employs various techniques to establish a calm and secure environment that can ease even the most nervous patients.

If a patient expresses a desire for sedation, we are able to administer it through inhalation or intravenous methods. Sedation induces a mild drowsiness, effectively alleviating any anxiety, and often results in limited recollection of the treatment afterward.

Rest assured that your comfort and peace of mind are our utmost priorities, and we are dedicated to ensuring a relaxed and stress-free experience throughout your restorative treatment.
