Repair your smile
At Long Crendon Dental we are able to provide a comprehensive range of treatments. We work closely with specialist colleagues to enable us to give the best care to all our patients.
We are keen to discuss options, concerns and possible treatments to be able to work out a personalised treatment plan that provides you with the best care possible
Dental crowns
Crowns are a great way to restore teeth that are broken or weakened by decay, a big filling or trauma.
​
Our dentist prepares your tooth and then a ceramic crown is fitted (made by one of our very capable dental technicians). You will have a temporary acrylic crown between preparing the tooth and filling the ceramic crown. We are able to choose from a very wide range of shades and can colour the crown to match your surrounding teeth.
Fillings
We are aware that many people prefer tooth coloured fillings. We use a composite resin material that can match the colour of your teeth.
Metal fillings are still used in some circumstances. The material that we use is discussed carefully and a decision about which is the most beneficial made before the treatment is agreed.
Root Canal Treatment
Root fillings are very important treatments that allow teeth to be saved rather than extracted.
​
Root canal treatment involves the removal of dead or damaged tissue from the root canal that has become inflamed or infected as a result of disease or trauma. The space left is thoroughly cleaned and sealed to keep the tooth functioning.
​
Most root filled teeth will need to be crowned once they have healed.
Composite bonding
Composite is a tooth-like, white material used for white fillings and can also be used to fix broken, worn down or chipped teeth.
​
Composite can help to repair your teeth so that no one will know you ever had treatment.
Dental bridges
Bridges are an option for missing or failing teeth and can either be supported by crowns or they can be attached to teeth using a composite bonding technique.
Our dental technicians are highly skilled in the production of beautiful bridges.
