Restorations in Falcon
Ceramic Solutions for Strong, Natural Smiles
When decay, cracks, or wear have weakened a tooth, ceramic restorations are commonly used to support function and improve appearance in teeth affected by damage or wear. At Stender Dental Studio, we use high-quality porcelain and zirconia products that not only blend seamlessly with your natural teeth but also are designed to provide strength and support for long-term use.
How Our Restoration Process Works
The process begins with the careful removal of any damaged or decayed tissue, leaving only healthy tooth structure intact. The tooth is then shaped to hold the restoration in place securely.
Depending on the extent of the damage, we may recommend inlays or onlays, when part of the biting surface needs rebuilding, crowns, when most of the tooth requires protection and reinforcement, or veneers when the front surface needs both functional and cosmetic repair. Once prepared, the restoration is bonded to the natural tooth using advanced adhesives, integrating securely with your natural tooth structure.
The Benefits of Ceramic Restorations
These materials offer several advantages:
- Natural, tooth-like appearance that blends beautifully
- Designed to be strong and suitable for regular chewing forces
- Biocompatible and comfortable for the surrounding gum tissue
- Resistant to staining, helping maintain a natural appearance
Ceramic or Composite: What’s The Difference?
For smaller cavities, composite resin fillings are an excellent option. They can be completed in a single visit, are more affordable, and work well in low-stress areas. However, composites may wear down or stain over time.
Ceramic restorations, on the other hand, are ideal for larger repairs or heavily worn teeth. They are known to resist staining and are crafted for a natural look. While they may cost more and sometimes require lab work, they can be a suitable option for patients wanting long-term support.
