Benefits of Dental Reconstruction
The length of time a beautiful smile is preserved after the procedure depends on the patient’s compliance with care recommendations. The benefits of restoration include:
- Saving your own tooth, which is preferable to prosthetics
- High cosmetic effect, making the restoration invisible
- Durability - thanks to proper care, the tooth will last more than 15 years
- Possibility of simultaneous restoration of several teeth in one session
- Use of biocompatible, environmentally friendly materials
- The cost of tooth augmentation is usually lower than full dentures
Dental restoration may be required for both men and women. However, there are some patterns associated with gender differences. Men are often exposed to greater physical stress and risks associated with injuries, including dental injuries. This trend is due to an active lifestyle and dangerous types of professional activity. Women most often turn to the dentist for dental restoration. This is especially true in modern society, where much attention is paid to appearance.
Preparation for dental restoration
For maximum effectiveness, proper preparation for the procedure is required. First, the dentist examines the oral cavity and determines the most suitable type of restoration. He then informs the patient about the possible risks and limitations associated with the upcoming procedure. Next, professional teeth cleaning is carried out, during which the doctor removes plaque and tartar. He also removes old fillings and treats caries.
Tooth restoration options
There are several basic options for dental restoration:
- Artistic restoration of teeth. It involves the use of special materials (for example, composites) that are applied to the tooth to restore its shape and appearance. The procedure is usually performed in one visit to the dentist and allows you to restore the aesthetics of your smile
- Composite restoration. The doctor uses composite resins, which are similar in color and texture to natural teeth. They are designed to fill cavities, repair chips or cracks, and change the size and shape of teeth
- Aesthetic restoration. It is aimed at improving the appearance of a smile and involves procedures such as teeth whitening, installation of veneers, crowns, and braces. The main goal is to achieve a more attractive and harmonious appearance of teeth
- Direct dental restoration. It involves applying restoration material directly to the tooth. Performed for minor caries or tooth damage
To achieve the best aesthetic result, the doctor uses one type of restoration material. This is because different materials have different characteristics, such as gloss and degree of transparency. As a result, restored teeth may differ significantly from natural, healthy molars.

How does the procedure work?
Before starting the procedure, the doctor prepares all the necessary materials and instruments. For example, to fill teeth, composites are required, and to install veneers, ceramic blanks are required, which are pre-processed and adjusted to the individual parameters of the patient’s teeth.
Dental restoration is a multi-stage process that requires highly qualified and experienced dentists. It consists of the following stages:
- Determination of composite color.
- Anesthesia, which makes the procedure more comfortable for the patient.
- Isolation of the tooth from saliva using a rubber dam, lip retractor, retraction threads, saliva ejector.
- Installation of a pin in case of severe destruction. It serves as the basis for a new coating on the tooth.
- Applying composite materials in small portions and hardening them under an activating lamp (photopolymerization process).
- Removal of excess composite, grinding and polishing, which gives the tooth a natural shine and shape.
- Apply a thin layer of composite sealant.
- Dentist checking how teeth fit together after restoration. The new tooth should not be higher or lower, but completely match the bite. Otherwise, there is a high probability of damage.
Once every 6 months, it is recommended to visit a doctor for a preventive examination and, if necessary, correct the tooth restoration.
How to maintain the result of the procedure
To preserve the results of tooth shape restoration for a long time, it is important to follow a number of simple rules:
- Avoid hard foods and drinks that can stain your teeth, such as coffee, tea, colored soda, or red wine. After eating such products, you should rinse your mouth thoroughly.
- Avoid excessive stress on the teeth. Cut fruits and vegetables into small pieces.
- Chew fibrous foods thoroughly.
- Do not chew nuts and seeds with your teeth.
- Do not bite hard foods.
- Do not eat too cold or hot food
- Use a soft-bristled brush and toothpaste without abrasives for cleaning.
- Rinse your mouth only with products prescribed by your doctor. It is forbidden to use rinses containing difluoride and chlorhexidine, as they affect the shade of the composite.
- Replace dental floss with an irrigator. It has a more delicate effect.
If a woman has extended teeth, she should avoid using too bright shades of lipstick, as they can leave marks on the composite material.
Important! In case of chipping of the extended composite, you must immediately contact your doctor. This is especially true for those patients who have increased tooth sensitivity to mechanical stress and temperature stimuli.
Unpleasant sensations may indicate that access to the dentin or even the nerve of the tooth has opened. In this case, correction is required in the form of repeated extensions or the use of other treatment methods, for example, installation of crowns.
