FROM DENTAL ON CAMBRIDGE

We see many patients who have unfortunately lost several teeth – it’s a common problem for many people for various reasons such as periodontal (gum) disease, large cavities, cracked teeth and a history of irregular dental care. Missing multiple teeth is not an ideal situation and can lead to significant problems in the mouth, such as detrimental movement and overloading of the remaining teeth. Additionally, it can result in changes in facial shape due to collapsing of the soft facial tissues into the missing teeth space, leading to a prematurely aged facial appearance.

Thankfully, advancements in dentistry mean that there are multiple options available to restore a natural, functional, and aesthetic dentition that are now readily available to patients.

One such treatment that may be suitable is a partial or full mouth rehabilitation. This is where all the teeth in an arch are restored to their ideal height and shape, utilising high strength and highly aesthetic ceramic crowns. This treatment is suitable for patients who have chewing difficulties due to inadequate remaining teeth. It is also suitable for patients with excessively worn-down, fractured or weakened teeth. If this sounds like your situation and you have been struggling with damaged or missing teeth or aren’t happy with your current teeth or dentures, you may want to consider some comprehensive, long-lasting treatment options.

At Dental on Cambridge, our team have extensive experience in utilising a variety of treatment options including the provision of full upper and lower arch crowns; a combination of crowns on existing teeth and implant crowns; and combining implants with dentures to provide a more comfortable and secure denture.

We believe that comprehensive dental care and rehabilitation if required, is an important investment in your oral health and general wellbeing. We work hard to support patients to understand not only their treatment options, but also to ensure we have transparent pricing and payment planning available.

Dr Alex Ritchie, Dr Simone Faoro and the team at Dental on Cambridge are highly experienced in cosmetic and implant dentistry and can perform an array of procedures to support you in your quest to find your ideal smile and confidence again.

If you’re considering undertaking some cosmetic or implant treatment and would like to know what treatment options might be suitable for your individual circumstances, give our team a call on 3348 6661 to find a suitable appointment time.
