Treatments
Each treatment has its own page explaining what it is, when it may be considered, how it works and what aftercare involves. Which treatment suits you is decided together after an examination.

From minimal intervention to full restoration
Treatments can be roughly ordered by how much tooth structure they involve. This is not a ranking of better or worse; which step is needed depends on the condition of the tooth.
Prevention
Professional cleaning, home care and regular check-ups to prevent problems.
Surface changes
Changes to colour or minor shape without removing tooth structure.
Indirect restorations
Made-to-measure restorations that repair or cover part of the tooth.
Full coverage
Crowns that cover the whole tooth and bridges supported by neighbouring teeth.
Tooth replacement
Replacing both the root and the crown of a lost tooth.
Less intervention → More extensive restoration
