Restorative Dentistry in Etobicoke: What is it?
Restorative dental care includes any procedure that aims to restore the normal function and appearance of your smile.
By repairing structural problems such as damaged or missing teeth, our dentists can help restore your smile – and your oral health.
Depending on your issue, the dentists at Bloor Kipling Dentistry will determine the right restorative treatment option for you.
Dental Crowns & Dental Bridges in Etobicoke
Dental Crowns
Crowns are porcelain caps placed on top of teeth, restoring their function and appearance. Crowns are used to attach bridges, cover dental implants or prevent worsening of a crack. They can also help to restore a discoloured tooth.
Dental Bridges
Bridges are tooth replacements that are bonded to existing teeth or dental implants to replace sections of missing teeth. Because they are custom-made, bridges are barely noticeable and can restore the natural contour of teeth and even bite issues.
Full & Partial Dentures in Etobicoke
Partial Dentures
Partial dentures replace one or more teeth beside one another in your mouth. If you are missing more than a few teeth or if your surrounding teeth are not strong enough to support a dental bridge, then your dentist may recommend partial dentures.
Full Dentures
Full dentures replace an entire jaw (lower or upper) of teeth and are held in place by an oral adhesive or suction. If you are missing a jaw of teeth, your dentist will likely recommend full dentures.
Dental Fillings in Etobicoke
At Bloor Kipling Dentistry, we use composite (tooth-coloured) fillings to repair a cavity or tooth damage, like a crack. These fillings can withstand moderate pressure from the constant stress of chewing, and can be used on front and back teeth.
Inlays & Onlays in Etobicoke
Inlays and onlays are tooth-coloured porcelain fillings used to repair cavities when the damage is too extensive for a standard dental filling. They are custom-made in a dental laboratory and are then permanently cemented to the tooth as a single piece.
Periodontal (Gum) Therapy in Etobicoke
Gum disease is an infection of the tissues of the mouth, including the gums, gingiva, alveolar bone, cementum, and periodontal ligament. If the disease is caught in the early stages, preventive therapy will be recommended. Otherwise, treatment methods will depend on the type and severity of the disease.
Root Canals in Etobicoke
A root canal is a procedure where your dentist removes any diseased blood vessels, nerves and tissues from the interior of a tooth. By removing the decay and bacteria from the tooth, your dentist can help halt the spread of infection and prevent the need for an extraction.
Same-Day Restorations in Etobicoke
Using CEREC® technology, our dentists can create and place porcelain crowns, inlays and onlays in a single dental appointment to help restore your smile. No impressions, no temporaries - just tooth-coloured, metal-free restorations in one visit.
TMJ Disorder Treatment in Etobicoke
The temporomandibular joint is a hinge that connects your jaw to the temporal bones of your skull. The disorder of this joint can cause a host of issues with your jaw and facial muscles, including painful symptoms. Our dentists can test for, diagnose and provide treatment plans for TMJ Disorder.
