Veneers
A veneer is an excellent long term natural looking solution that can:
• restore a broken, chipped, misshaped or crooked tooth
• restore unsightly , stained or washed out fillings
• close a space between the teeth (diastema)
• cover a permanently stained or discoloured tooth
• straighten your smile (instant orthodontics)
Veneers are constructed as a think layer of high quality porcelain to create a shell bonded to the front surface of your teeth to create a beautiful smile. Nothing can match the strength, beauty and durability of a porcelain veneer restoration. They can also be made from white fillings (composite materials) which would serve as a short – medium term transitionary treatment.

When large cavities or fractures leave you with only a portion of your tooth – or after a Root Canal treatment a good long term option may be to rebuild with a crown. In the event of one or more lost teeth, a Bridge may be an option. Both treatments can restore your teeth to full function and protect them from further damage.

Crowns are created on top of the remaining tooth structure using high grade porcelain material, which completely encases the remaining ‘crown’ of the tooth. The result is a strong, natural looking and comfortable restored tooth.

A Bridge is a treatment option used to replace one or more teeth. The teeth at each end of the gap are used as anchors to support the replacement tooth and to restore aesthetics and function. It is essential to insert a replacement tooth as soon as possible when a tooth is lost, as teeth may move into the open space therefore changing your bite over time causing a collapsed bite . This changed bite may result in sore jaws, gum disease, or even decay difficulty in eating which may in turn, require extensive treatment.
Talk to TLC Dental about Bridges and Crowns. Both are fantastic options to ensure that your teeth are protected and that you maintain function, after extensive damage or the loss of a tooth.
It is important to replace a lost tooth or teeth as soon as possible as teeth may realign within the gap and change your bite over time. This may require more extensive treatment later. Don’t put it off! No matter when you experienced a lost tooth (or extraction), see the team at TLC Dental to explore your best options.
A dental Inlay or Onlay is a porcelain restoration which is bonded ‘into or onto’ the back tooth. This type of restoration can increase the strength of a tooth and is a more conservative option than a crown.
Inlays or Onlays are used rather than white fillings, when a harder and more durable restoration is required for one or more reasons, such as:
• Larger cavities
• The tooth has fractures or small cracks
• The tooth is used heavily for chewing
TLC Dental may recommend Inlays or Onlays as long term solutions as they will restore your tooth almost to its original strength, whilst remaining virtually invisible.
