An onlay is a method of tooth restoration, which covers, protects or reinforces one or more cusps.
Chlorhexidine gluconate can stain teeth, dentures, tooth restorations, your tongue, or the inside of your mouth.
Gold alloys are used in restorative dentistry, especially in tooth restorations, such as crowns and permanent bridges.
Brushing with baking soda can scratch composite resins and porcelain veneers (which are used to make crowns and other types of tooth restorations).
The development of composite is by far more related to patients' demand for tooth colored restorations for aesthetic concerns rather than for fears over the mercury content of the metal.
Disclosing solutions are also used during tooth restoration to minimize the chance of recurrence.
Straumann provide a CAD/CAM based service for producing highly esthetic tooth restorations ranging from single inlays and crowns to 14-unit bridges in a selection of materials including high-tech ceramics.
Sensitivity can occur following teeth cleaning, root planing, crown placement, and tooth restoration.
In the past, dental fillings and other tooth restorations were made of gold, amalgam and other metals-some of which were veneered with porcelain.
Teeth cleanings, replacement crowns, tooth restorations, and root planing can all lead to some short-term tooth sensitivity.
