General Dentistry
The foundation of a great smile and comfortable mouth is preventing problems before they start. We offer a wide range of general dental services including preventative care, fillings, crowns, dentures and root canal therapy.
Dental crowns, also referred to as "dental caps" or "tooth caps," are dental restorations that cover over and encase the tooth on which they are cemented. Crowns can be used when we need to strengthen teeth, or improve the cosmetic appearance of a tooth.
A dental bridge is a false tooth, known as a pontic, which is fused between two porcelain crowns to fill in the area left by a missing tooth. The two crowns holding it in place that are attached onto your teeth on each side of the false tooth. This is known as a fixed bridge. This procedure is used to replace one or more missing teeth. Fixed bridges cannot be taken out of your mouth as you might do with removable partial dentures.You should replace missing teeth for a number of reasons. Your appearance is one reason, another is that the gap left by a missing tooth can mean greater strain is put on the teeth at either side.
Dentures are a set of replacement teeth for any teeth that are missing. There are partial dentures, which take the place of only a few teeth and prevent the others from changing position. If all the teeth are missing, then complete dentures will be needed, which replace every tooth in the mouth.
Both types of dentures are removable and usually made of metal and acrylic resin, a plastic-like material that is molded to fit the exact shape of a person's mouth. Suction helps hold the dentures in place, so they stick to the surface of a person's gums.
Root canal treatment (also called endodontics) is needed when the blood or nerve supply of the tooth (known as the pulp) is infected through decay or injury.If the pulp becomes infected, the infection may spread through the root canal system of the tooth. This may eventually lead to an abscess. If root canal treatment (RCT) is not carried out, the infection will spread and the tooth may need to be taken out.
Regular dental care helps prevent inconvenient dental emergencies. However dental emergencies do occur. If you have a dental emergency inside of the practice opening hours, contact us on 0121 236 2127 and every effort will be made to see you as soon as possible.
