Restorative Dentistry in Burnaby
At Burnaby Gentle Dental, our restorative dentistry services are designed to rebuild damaged or missing teeth and bring back your smile’s full function and beauty. Whether you need a simple filling or a full crown or bridge, we’ll restore your teeth with precision, comfort, and care.
What It Is & How It Works
Restorative dentistry focuses on repairing and replacing teeth that have been weakened, decayed, or lost. We use natural-looking, durable materials to make your teeth strong, functional, and aesthetically pleasing again.
It includes three of the most common treatments:
Tooth-Colored Composite Fillings:
Used to repair cavities or minor fractures, these fillings match the natural color of your teeth, blending in seamlessly while strengthening the damaged area.
Dental Crowns:
A crown is a custom-made cap that covers and protects a weak or damaged tooth. It restores the tooth’s shape, strength, and appearance — often after a large filling or root canal.
Dental Bridges:
Bridges replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring to neighboring teeth or implants. They restore both function and the natural look of your smile.
