At Orchard Dental Practice, restorative dentistry focuses on repairing damaged teeth and replacing missing ones while keeping treatment as natural and minimally invasive as possible. The aim is to restore function, comfort, and confidence in your smile.
A dental crown (sometimes called a “cap”) is used to cover and protect a tooth that is weakened, heavily filled, or broken. It restores the tooth’s shape, strength and appearance, and is carefully matched to your natural teeth.
To protect a cracked or worn tooth
To restore a tooth after root canal treatment
To support a large filling when little natural tooth remains
To improve the appearance of a misshapen or discoloured tooth
The tooth is gently prepared, an impression is taken, and a custom-made crown is fitted to restore your smile and bite comfortably.
A dental bridge is used to replace one or more missing teeth by “bridging” the gap between healthy teeth. The teeth either side of the space support the replacement tooth (or teeth), helping restore your bite and appearance.

A bridge is fixed in place, meaning it stays in your mouth and feels secure when eating and speaking.
Dentures are removable appliances designed to replace missing teeth and surrounding gum tissue. They can replace a few teeth or a full set, depending on your needs.
Full dentures: Replace all teeth in the upper or lower jaw
Partial dentures: Replace several missing teeth while keeping remaining natural teeth
Different materials: Including acrylic, flexible options, or metal-based designs for added strength and comfort
Your dentist will carefully assess your teeth, gums, and oral health before recommending the most suitable option. In many cases, crowns, bridges, and dentures can be part of a wider treatment plan to restore long-term oral health and function.
Each treatment is designed to help you eat, speak, and smile with confidence again!
