Artistic restoration of teeth

Artistic tooth restoration is a modern technology that allows you to restore the shape, color, and structure of your teeth as naturally as possible. Even if a tooth is partially or completely lost, the dentist can create a perfect replacement using high-strength materials. These materials are strong, durable, and provide a natural-looking tooth.

Indications for artistic restoration:

• Change in enamel shade.
• Grinding or reshaping of the tooth.
• Gaps between teeth.
• Chips and cracks in the enamel.
• Restoration of a tooth after decay or other damage.
• Replacement of an extracted tooth.

Contraindications:

• Allergic reactions to materials.
• Poor oral hygiene.
• Problems with isolating the area from moisture during the procedure.

Art restoration techniques:

1. Direct restoration
   Direct restorations are performed directly in the patient’s mouth. It is suitable for minor defects in the shape or color of the tooth. The doctor recreates the chipped part without going to a laboratory, so the procedure takes one visit. It is the fastest and most economical way of restoration.
2. Indirect restoration
   This method is used for more complex cases, such as the restoration of front teeth. The tooth is first treated and prepared, then the dentist takes an impression, which is sent to a laboratory. There, a customized ceramic inlay is made for the specific tooth. This method takes more time and costs more, but it provides high quality and durability.

Artistic restoration with composite materials:

Photopolymer restoration is a delicate work that requires skill and attention to detail. It is used to correct minor imperfections such as chips, cracks, stains or enamel erasure. Photopolymers harden under the influence of a special lamp, allowing the dentist to recreate the correct contours of the teeth right in the patient’s mouth. This restoration lasts 10-15 years, but requires regular polishing every 6 months.

Benefits of Artistic Restoration:

• The restored tooth looks natural and does not differ in shape and color from the rest of the tooth.
• The use of photopolymers allows you to achieve a high aesthetic result.
• The cost of restoration is lower than whitening or prosthetics.
• The procedure has minimal impact on healthy enamel, which reduces the risk of hypersensitivity.
• Multiple teeth can be restored in one visit.

Art restorations are a modern, safe, and effective way to restore a natural and healthy-looking smile without significantly altering your teeth.
