Cosmetic quality dental restorations can make a difference in how you feel about your smile.\u00a0 When a tooth is damaged, it will most likely need one of two restorative dentistry treatments: a crown or a filling. Which one depends on the extent and type of damage. \u00a0Fillings are typically used to restore a tooth when you have a cavity that has affected less than 50% of your tooth. \u00a0Crowns are used in response to a number of problems \u2013 including very large cavities, broken teeth, or even missing teeth. \u00a0In the old days, you had to choose between dental restorations that revitalized your oral health, and restorations that blended in naturally with your smile. Thanks to metal-free restorations, that\u2019s no longer the case.\u00a0 With porcelain for crowns and tooth-colored composite resin for fillings, Dr. Galaif provides you with restorations for your health along with a pleasing cosmetic look.<\/p>\n
