Implants: A
dental implant is a type of prosthetic device that is
inserted into the upper or lower jawbone, onto which an
artificial tooth, crown or bridge can be anchored.
Implants are typically constructed from titanium.
Incisors: The front
teeth located in between the canines.
Indirect Fillings: If a tooth is damaged past the point
in which a traditional dental filling can serve as
treatment, while at the same time not being damaged
enough to warrant a dental crown, an indirect filling
may be used. An indirect filling comes in two forms (inlay
or onlay) and is manufactured by a dental laboratory
using CAD/CAM technology.
Inlays: Dental
inlays are restorative devices that can be used in place
of dental fillings to treat tooth decay / damage. As
opposed to being molded into place within the mouth (as
with dental fillings), dental inlays are fabricated in a
dental laboratory using CAD / CAM technology. While
onlays are placed on the tooth, inlays are set within a
hole in the tooth. |
