Understanding Indirect Restorations:
Crafting durable and lifelike crowns, bridges, and veneers to restore damaged teeth or enhance your smile. Each restoration is designed to match your natural teeth seamlessly, ensuring both strength and beauty
Indirect restorations are those that cannot be fabricated inside the mouth and instead must be fabricated outside of the mouth before being placed on the affected tooth. Some examples include crowns, bridges, dental implants, inlays, onlays, and veneers. These restorations can be fabricated by a dental laboratory or an in-office milling machine, if your dentist has one. In cases where a dental lab is used, there are usually two dental appointments required to place an indirect restoration.
Indirect restorations are larger than direct restorations and are capable of restoring teeth that have more severe damage or decay than a small cavity. They are also made from different dental materials that provide additional protection to the tooth and can withstand the force of chewing for longer periods of time before needing replacement. Not only that, but indirect restorations can also provide several aesthetic benefits to improve the look of your smile.
