Crowns + Bridges
A dental crown is a ‘cap’ that encases the entire tooth surface and restores it to its original shape, size and function. It prevents further breakdown and protects the remaining tooth structure. Although there are many different types of crowns (including gold, porcelain fused metal and zirconia), ceramic (porcelain) crowns are the most popular. Ceramic crowns are more aesthetic, durable and protective and lasts for many years.
This treatment is particularly recommended for patients with teeth that have been root canal treated, heavily filled or broken down due to fracture, trauma or decay. Dental crowns are made to match the shape, size and color of your natural teeth to give you a long lasting smile!
A dental bridge is a non-removable restoration which serves as an alternative way to replace missing teeth. The ‘traditional bridge’ is one of the most popular types which is usually made of porcelain material. It consists of two dental crowns that are placed over adjacent anchoring teeth to support the artificial crown replacing the missing tooth. A dental bridge is often recommended for patients who have compromised adjacent teeth (heavily filled tooth/broken teeth) or when conditions are inappropriate to have implant surgery. Dental bridges are made to match shape, size and color of your natural teeth to provide you with both function and aesthetics. Crowns are covered by our capped price dental program.

Veneers
Veneers are a fantastic option to help you achieve a beautiful smile. They are designed to correct problems such as chipped teeth, gaps, discoloration and mis-shaped teeth, and they have protective qualities which could help you avoid the need for more extensive treatments. Veneers are either made from porcelain ceramic or composite materials which are cemented over the front of your natural teeth.
The advantages of porcelain veneers are that they mimic the reflective properties of your natural teeth, they are more resistant to staining, and they last much longer compared to composite veneers (white filling material). The advantages of composite veneers are that they can be made much thinner and they require less removal of the existing tooth structure. We always discuss which type of veneer will be the most suitable for you before commencing treatment and both types of veneers are covered by our capped price dental program.

Teeth Whitening
Your smile is your first impression! Teeth whitening is a simple dental procedure to change the color of the natural teeth, and allow your teeth to live up to the reputation of being pearly whites. Tooth discoloration has now become the number one cosmetic concern among most patients, and there are numerous of ways we can help you to whiten teeth. The most effective and popular method to whiten your teeth is at the dentist. Combination of peroxide gels and UV light can result in bright smile. Professional whitening treatment at Comfort Dental Gympie may provide you with the vibrant smile you are looking for!
Dental Implants
A dental implant is another option to replace a missing tooth. It’s a titanium screw that’s surgically placed into the jaw bone beneath the gum line. Dental implants are a long term solution to replace the missing tooth and they’re permanently fixed into your mouth, unlike dentures which need to be constantly removed and replaced. When compared to traditional dental bridges and dentures, a dental implant is more beneficial to general oral health because it’s more comfortable, functional and easily maintained. The best part? The crown or bridge placed over the implant are very natural looking.
Dental implants are a treatment that require specific assessment of general and oral health and social factors such as smoking. If you’re considering a dental implant, please book a consult. Our dentists will determine if a dental implant is right for you, and provide further information to assist in your decision making.
