Restorative Dentistry

What is restorative dentistry?

It is the area of dentistry that deals with dental lesions caused by tooth decay, trauma, or other reasons, such as changes in the anatomy (shape and size) of the teeth. The treatment is carried out with materials, composite resins that replace the tooth structure that has been lost. At Lisbon Smile Clinic, we use state-of-the-art, highly aesthetic materials.

Aesthetic restorations

Aesthetic restorative dentistry is a field of Dentistry that has seen remarkable progress in recent years. This development has been driven by the emergence of more stable, durable, resistant, and aesthetic composite resins. This evolution has been followed with great professionalism and dedication by the dentists at The Lisbon Smile Clinic.

Aesthetic restorations are performed in the aesthetic region of the oral cavity, namely the incisors and canines. These restorations are layered to mimic the different shades of the tooth’s color, making them as natural and aesthetic as possible. They are highly complex restorations and should be done with composite resins specifically prepared for this purpose, using a color palette that allows for such mimicking. These restorations have the same durability as conventional restorations, provided the patient follows the proper maintenance routine, and they achieve excellent aesthetic results.

The color of resin restorations can change over time. Resins are more porous than tooth enamel and gradually retain pigments found in certain foods and drinks, such as coffee, tea, Coca-Cola, red wine, and also tobacco.

For this reason, if you have aesthetic restorations on your front teeth, you should avoid consuming these products, especially in the hours immediately following the placement of the restorations.
