From crowns and bridges to root canal treatment and more, we’re here to restore your smile and help you maintain healthy, fully functional teeth.
Dental Crowns for Strength and Appearance Restoration
A dental crown is a strong, tooth-shaped cap that covers a damaged or weakened tooth to restore its shape, strength, and appearance. Crowns are commonly used for teeth affected by severe decay, fractures, or following root canal therapy. They’re crafted from durable materials like porcelain, ceramic, or metal, with custom colours to match your natural teeth seamlessly.
Crowns not only protect the underlying tooth from further damage but also improve chewing function and overall aesthetics. With good oral hygiene and regular dental visits, crowns can last for many years, making them a reliable long-term solution for preserving your natural teeth.
Dental Bridges to Replace Missing Teeth and Restore Your Smile
If you’re missing one or more teeth, a dental bridge can effectively fill the gap and restore your smile. Bridges consist of one or more artificial teeth (called pontics) anchored securely by crowns fitted on the adjacent healthy teeth.
Bridges improve your ability to chew and speak clearly, prevent neighbouring teeth from shifting out of place, and maintain the natural shape of your face. Like crowns, dental bridges are custom-made to blend naturally with your existing teeth, providing a seamless and durable restoration.
Root Canal Treatment to Save Infected or Damaged Teeth
A root canal is a specialised treatment designed to save a tooth that has become infected or inflamed in the pulp (the soft tissue inside the tooth). Instead of extracting the tooth, your dentist removes the infected tissue, thoroughly cleans the canals, and seals the space to prevent further infection.

After root canal therapy, the treated tooth is often restored with a crown to protect and strengthen it. This treatment relieves pain and infection while preserving your natural tooth, which is always preferable to extraction.
Other Specialty and Restorative Treatments
Dental Implants
Dental implants provide a permanent replacement for missing teeth by surgically placing a titanium post into the jawbone, which acts as an artificial tooth root. Implants offer a natural look and feel, helping you chew and speak confidently.
Tooth Sensitivity Solutions
We diagnose and treat tooth sensitivity caused by worn enamel, gum recession, or other issues, helping you enjoy your favourite foods and drinks pain-free.
TMJ (Temporomandibular Joint) Issues
Our team can assess and manage TMJ disorders, which cause jaw pain, headaches, and difficulty opening or closing your mouth properly.
Snoring and Sleep Apnoea Treatment
We offer custom dental devices designed to improve breathing during sleep, reducing snoring and managing mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnoea.
Restorative Dentistry FAQs
How long do crowns or bridges last for?
With proper care, crowns and bridges can last anywhere from 5 to 15 years, sometimes even longer. Regular check-ups and good oral hygiene are essential to maintain their longevity.
Can a crown or bridge be replaced?
Yes. Crowns and bridges can be replaced if they become damaged or worn or if the tooth beneath starts to decay. Loose restorations can often be recemented to restore their fit.
When is a root canal recommended instead of tooth extraction?
A root canal is recommended if the tooth is still structurally sound but infected or inflamed internally. It allows the tooth to be saved rather than removed.
Are root canals painful?
Modern root canal treatments are typically no more uncomfortable than getting a filling. Thanks to advanced techniques and anaesthesia, most patients experience relief from pain caused by infection during the procedure.
