How to look after your crown and bridgework?
Dental crowns can be used for strength, durability and tooth stability, or for cosmetic reasons to enhance the appearance of a tooth.
Crowns are often required when a tooth has been severely weakened and is no longer structurally sound. This can be as a result of trauma, tooth decay, previous root canal therapy or even general wear over time.
At Heritage Dental Group, with this advanced state of the art technology, we are able to construct restorations like crowns within our own premises while you are still in the dental chair. Contact us to discuss same day crown and veneer on 38783384.

What is Invisalign?
The Invisalign system uses a series of clear aligners that gently and gradually shift or move your teeth to the desired place. These aligners are clear, thin and made from medical grade plastic which you will wear for 22-23 hours a day. You only take them out to eat and clean your teeth. These aligners are custom made to fit your teeth. We use latest 3D technology at Heritage Dental Group to scan your teeth to make these aligners. Get the best Invisalign in Brisbane.
Invisalign is suitable for people with mild to moderate crowding or spacing. Invisalign is now more affordable than it was a few years ago. These are suitable for adults of all ages.

Dental Fissure Sealants
Fissure sealants are a safe and painless way of protecting adult and kids’s teeth from tooth decay. It is a plastic coating which covers the chewing surfaces of the back adult teeth. The sealant forms a hard shield that keeps food and bacteria from getting into the tiny grooves in the teeth.
Sealants used in conjunction with a comprehensive dental care routine that includes proper brushing, flossing, fluoride treatments and a healthy diet, helps maintain dental health. While brushing and flossing are critical components of any dental health regimen, sealants provide additional protection for the grooves and pits of the teeth. Our dentists recommend this preventative procedure for both adults and kids to keep your smile cavity free for life.
What should I do if my tooth or filling breaks?
If you have broken part of your tooth or filling, you should see the dentist immediately. Getting it fixed straightaway can save you from pain, sensitivity and major dental work. If you leave your broken tooth or filling for a long period of time, it can result in decay leading to inflammation of the nerve in the tooth. Left unattended it can lead to pain, abscess, resulting in root canal treatment or loss of teeth.
