Restorative Dentistry in Coventry

If you've suffered a broken tooth, decay or tooth loss, restorative dentistry can help to restore function and prevent further damage to your oral health. This includes private and NHS dentistry.

What is restorative dentistry?

Restorative dentistry is a branch of dentistry concerned with preserving function. If you have a broken tooth, a decaying tooth or a missing tooth, restorative treatments will help to restore your bite and your smile. This is important as gaps in your smile, chips and decaying teeth can all have a negative impact on your wider oral health. We offer restorative dental treatments such as fillings, crowns, inlays, onlays, and bridges to help restore your smile and avoid issues in the future.

Crowns

Protect and restore strength to teeth with a custom porcelain crown. This treatment is commonly used after root canal therapy to protect the tooth from damage, but it can also be used following extensive decay, chips or cracks.

Inlays and Onlays

Custom porcelain inlays and onlays are required to restore a tooth when a filling wouldn't be enough but a crown would be too much. Inlays sit in the cusp of the tooth while onlays sit over the edge, covering one or more cusps.

Bridges

The simplest way to replace a missing tooth. A bridge uses one or two crowns attached to surrounding teeth to support a pontic (artificial tooth). You will be able to smile, speak and chew with confidence again.

Smile Makeovers

Achieve a dramatic transformation and address the issues that are damaging your confidence. This treatment plan could include a wide range of treatments including orthodontics, whitening, composite bonding and dental implants. 

Benefits of restorative dentistry

Restorative dentistry helps to restore teeth that have been broken or suffered from decay. It includes treatments like crowns, bridges and root canal treatment. While it might help to improve aesthetics, it is very different to cosmetic dentistry because it also helps to enhance oral health.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Have a question about your dental treatment? We've answered the most common questions below.

Restorative dentistry is ideal for situations where you have a broken, decaying or missing tooth. The focus of restorative dentistry is on restoring your smile and ensuring proper function of the mouth and jaw.

There are several options for a missing tooth. You could choose a dental implant to replace the missing tooth. you could also choose a dental bridge to conceal the gap. If your tooth was extracted due to overcrowding, orthodontics may be used to close the gap. And finally, you could also leave a gap in your smile, but this is not recommended due to the risk of bone loss in your jaw.

Yes, we can use a variety of methods to restore a broken tooth, including crowns, onlays, veneers and composite bonding.

Wherever possible, we will always encourage you to save the natural tooth rather than choosing extraction. In some cases, your tooth might be too badly damaged and we would recommend extraction. In this case, we will also advise on replacement options.

    Friendly Dentist and no pushing for unnecessary treatments which was a relief from my previous Dentist. Nice friendly reception staff. Generally a good practice for anxious people as many of the reviews suggest. Accommodated a downstairs room for my check up as I'm currently on crutches - side note to this is that the practice is not disability friendly aside from that 1 downstairs consultation room (all other rooms are up a steep set of stairs and I was advised there is no lift). There is no parking and very uneven paving at the front which is a hazard for anyone with mobility difficulties. Practice is on a red route and double yellows so you have to walk from a nearby road (if dropped off there is an enormous pothole which damaged the car of the person who gave me a lift who'd tried to drop me off as close as possible) and the front door is not powered - it is a very heavy fire door meaning you struggle to push or pull with a stick/crutches or if you were in a wheelchair and want to remain independent - I struggled on the way in and the way out and noone was around to ask to help as the reception is some distance from the door. Only other comment was that the treatment room door was randomly opened and propped open during my check up and this wasn't explained or warned... I presumed it was an x-ray protocol but meant the room full of waiting patients all sat there and stared at me with things sticking out of my mouth which made me feel quite uncomfortable (especially when I was already very nervous to be there in the first place!).

    Came into the Dentist to book an appointment for a check up, the receptionist said there was a slot at 3,20pm the same day, I was seen the same day and received a professional service.

    This was an appointment to check a dental abcess that turned out not to be an abcess but ulceration caused by my partial denture rubbing my gum. Dr Belim gave me good advice and told me how to treat the problem and said he would see me in a month's time. I was seen promptly and the whole experience was a pleasant one.
