Conservative dentistry aims to repair and restore damaged teeth. Using a variety of techniques and materials, we restore teeth to their natural function and appearance, giving you a healthy, aesthetically pleasing smile.
Dental composites are materials used to restore teeth damaged by decay or minor fractures. They are made from synthetic resins, mixed with glass or ceramic particles to mimic the natural shade and texture of the teeth.
The composite is applied in successive layers, each layer being cured with a special light. Once the process is complete, the material is sculpted and polished tofit the shape of the tooth perfectly and achieve a smooth, glossy finish.
Onlays and overlays are partial dental restorations that rehabilitate posterior teeth, such as molars, that have lost some of their structure due to decay, cracks or significant wear.
- Onlay In addition to filling the cavity, it covers at least one cusp of the tooth.
- Overlay covers all cusps, providing a durable and esthetic solution.
These techniques help to strengthen and protect your teeth, while preserving their natural appearance. Unlike composites, onlays and overlays are manufactured outside the practice, making them particularly durable and aesthetic. They are an excellent option for those looking for a long-term solution.
