• Tooth Restoration by Veneer

Veneers are a tooth-shaped layer that restores their size, appearance, and strength by being placed on the teeth. To repair a tooth with a veneer, the teeth on both sides of the damaged tooth must be uniformly reduced slightly to fully restore the size and shape of the tooth. Repairing teeth through veneers takes more time than other methods; Because making tooth veneer takes a long process. The dentist first sends the tooth mold and size to the dental lab to make the veneer. In the meantime, the dentist fills the prepared tooth with a temporary crown so that the prepared veneer can be placed on the tooth in the next sessions.

• Tooth Restoration by the Implant method

Implants are small, sturdy, screw-like bases made of titanium. The implants are immobile and, when placed in the dental cavity, are covered with a crown and function like a real tooth.
