Dental Bridges
Dental bridges literally “bridge” the gap when you have one or more teeth missing in your mouth. Depending on the type, it can have at least two crowns for each tooth on the sides of the gap, which is perhaps the most common. It also consists of a false tooth (or teeth), which will be held in place using dental crowns.
Dental Check Ups and Cleaning
Regular dental check-ups are necessary for a healthy mouth. During a check-up the dentist will scrape the surface of your teeth and clean out your gums. They may take an X-ray to ensure there are no potential problems.
Dental Crowns
A dental crown is often called a “cap” or cover, which your dentist from Chelmsford Dental will place over your existing tooth. With a dental crown, your damaged tooth will be restored so that it will have its normal shape and size back. Aside from aesthetic purposes, dental crowns are to make the tooth stronger or even bring back its function.
Dental Fillings & Fissure Sealants
When the back teeth or molars of a child start to emerge, they are free from cavities, which is why parents should help keep them that way with the help of fissure sealants. Meanwhile, if the child or adult has decay, dental fillings are among the most recommended solutions. Fillings can either be silver-coloured (dental amalgam) or tooth-coloured.
Dental Implants
Dental implants take the place of tooth roots, providing a strong foundation for permanent or removable teeth replacements. Titanium cylinders or screws are positioned into the jawbone where there are missing teeth. Once the screws are installed, the dentist will mount false teeth, which will feel and look like your natural teeth.
Dental Sedation
For those who avoid visiting their dentist, dental sedation is the answer where the aim is to take away their anxiety. Sedation can be performed on either a simple cleaning treatment or more invasive procedure. It will help you relax during the procedure but note that sedation does not cause you to sleep except if you are under general anaesthesia.
Dentistry for Children
If you want to set your children up for a lifetime of healthy teeth and a bright smile, now is the time to start. By the age of six months, babies already start getting their first teeth. These teeth, which continue erupting throughout childhood, are at a higher risk of damage due to thinner enamel.
Dentures
Dentures are false teeth that can either be fully or partially applied or installed onto the patient’s mouth. They are used to replace missing or damaged teeth, which will be removed first before putting on the dentures. Chelmsford Dental ensures that your dentures will be comfortable and well-fitted.
