Direct Restoration
This process involves a pliable filling material being inserted into a prepared tooth and shaped before it hardens, effectively rebuilding the tooth. This procedure can be completed in a single appointment, which is a significant advantage. The most common type of direct restoration is fillings.
Indirect Restoration
Indirect restoration refers to the technique of formulating the restoration outside of the mouth using a dental impression of the prepared tooth. Inlays and onlays, crowns, bridges, porcelain veneers, and implants are some of the most common types of indirect restorations.
Restoring a damaged tooth to its functional and aesthetic form requires two steps: preparing the tooth for the placement of the restoration material or materials, and then placing the material and materials. To make enough space for the restorative materials, the dentist will use special tools and remove any dental decay and unsound parts of the tooth. If permanent restorations cannot be carried out, temporary restoration may be performed.
Preparations for the placement of restorative materials may be either intracoronal, which holds the materials within the confines of the structure of the tooth’s crown, or extracoronal, which serves as a base to which the restorative material will be placed. Crowns, inlays, and dental veneers are some examples of extracoronal preparations.
