FAQ

Dental Restoration FAQs

Frequently asked questions about dental care
What is a dental restoration?

A dental restoration is any treatment that repairs or replaces damaged or missing teeth, including fillings, crowns and bridges.

How long do dental restorations last?

With good care, fillings often last many years and crowns and bridges can last a decade or longer. Regular checkups help us spot wear early.

Are dental restorations painful?

Local anesthetic keeps you comfortable during treatment. Mild sensitivity afterward is common and usually settles within a few days.

How do I know which restoration I need?

It depends on how much of the tooth is damaged or missing. Your dentist will examine your teeth, review X-rays and recommend the most suitable option.

Restoration Types

Types of Dental Restorations We Offer

The right restoration depends on how much of the tooth is damaged or missing. Here are the main treatments, each with its own page for more detail.

Dental Fillings

Repair cavities and small areas of damage with tooth coloured materials that blend with your smile.

Dental Crowns

A custom cap that covers a weak, broken or heavily filled tooth to restore its strength, shape and appearance.

Learn about dental crowns →

Dental Bridges

Replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring a natural looking bridge to the teeth on either side of the gap.

When a tooth cannot be restored, replacement options include dental implants. If the nerve is infected, root canal treatment can often save the tooth before it is restored.

Warning Signs

Signs You May Need a Dental Restoration

Many dental problems start small. Catching them early usually means a simpler, more comfortable restoration.

Cavities or Decay

Dark spots, holes or rough areas on a tooth often mean decay that needs a filling. See our guide to dental filling services.

Chipped or Broken Teeth

Chips and breaks can be repaired. Read about chipped or broken tooth repair options.

Cracked Teeth

Cracks can cause sharp pain when biting. Find out if a cracked tooth can be saved.

Worn or Old Fillings

Fillings that are loose, cracked or leaking may need replacing. Wondering why a new filling feels too high? We can adjust it.

Worn Crowns

Crowns can wear or loosen over time. Learn how to tell if a crown needs replacing.

Missing Teeth

Gaps affect chewing and can shift neighbouring teeth. A bridge or implant can restore the space.

Care and Longevity

Caring for Your Dental Restorations

With the right care, restorations can serve you well for years. Daily cleaning keeps the surrounding gums and teeth healthy, which protects the restoration itself.

Regular checkups let us spot wear or small problems early, before they need more extensive treatment. If a tooth cannot be saved, our team can also discuss dental extraction and replacement options.

  • Brush twice a day with fluoride toothpaste
  • Floss daily, including around crowns
  • Avoid chewing ice or hard objects
  • Wear a night guard if you grind your teeth
  • Limit sugary snacks and drinks
  • Keep regular checkups and cleanings

More Questions

More Dental Restoration Questions Answered

Here are a few more questions we hear from patients considering fillings, crowns or bridges in Vaughan.

What is the difference between a filling and a crown?

A filling repairs a cavity or small area of damage, while a crown covers the whole tooth. Crowns are usually used when a tooth is weak, broken or has a large filling.

Can a damaged tooth always be restored?

Many teeth can be restored with a filling, crown or root canal. If damage is too severe, the tooth may need to be removed and replaced with an implant or bridge.

What materials are used for dental restorations?

Common materials include tooth coloured composite, porcelain and ceramic. Your dentist will recommend what suits the tooth, its location and your preferences.

How long does a dental crown take?

A crown typically takes a couple of visits. At the first we prepare the tooth and take impressions, and at the next we fit your custom crown.

Why does my new filling feel high?

A filling that feels too high can affect your bite. It usually only takes a quick adjustment, so let us know and we will fix it.

Can a dental bridge replace several teeth?

A bridge can replace one or more missing teeth in a row, provided the neighbouring teeth are strong enough to support it. Otherwise implants may be recommended.

Do dental restorations stain?

Porcelain and ceramic resist staining well, while composite fillings can pick up stains over time. Good brushing and regular cleanings help keep them looking fresh.
