Sometimes dental conditions arise that require immediate treatment from your dentist. Whether this is due to a missing tooth, gum disease or another dental problem our friendly team can help. We offer a full range of general dental treatments including fillings, crowns, extractions, dentures and many more.
At MIST Dental we offer white fillings, also known as composite fillings. These are made from a tooth-coloured material that provides the same benefits of amalgam fillings in restoring the tooth but have the advantage of giving the filled tooth a more natural look.
Using composite is a completely safe procedure and can be used for new fillings or to replace any old metal fillings you may have to give your teeth a more natural overall appearance.
Inlays and onlays are two types of restorations used when you have a cavity in your tooth that is too big to be filled. An inlay is a small filling that fits into the biting surface of a tooth, while an onlay covers a larger area of the tooth and is better suited to bigger cavities. Made from tooth-coloured porcelain they give the restored tooth a more natural look.

A dental filling is used to fill a cavity (a hole that has formed in your teeth) or other damage such as a chipped tooth.
Cavities can get bigger over time, so the sooner they’re spotted and filled, the less likely you are to have problems later. Without treatment, a cavity or chipped tooth can lead to toothache, bad breath, infection, and even the fracturing or loss of your tooth.
People of all ages, even young children, may need a tooth filling. Perhaps you have a nagging toothache, sudden pain when you bite down, or sensitivity to hot and cold food and drinks. You may even have noticed a cavity, or food getting caught in a damaged tooth.
Well-made dentures will restore the facial contours around your mouth and allow you to eat almost all foods without embarrassment.
Dentures remain a cost effective method of replacing missing teeth providing a reliable biting and chewing function and acceptable appearance.
Children are born free of dental disease, yet by adulthood a significant proportion of the population has active gum disease and most people have experienced some tooth decay and even tooth loss. It is our belief that disease can be prevented.
Our aim is to provide your child with the best dental care available to secure their dental health for the future. We recommend patients bring their children with them from birth so they get use to the sounds and smells of the practice.
For more information on the best option for your children's care please ask a member of our team.
Certain dental procedures require an additional level of understanding and training. These procedures can only be practiced by dentists who are fully qualified to do so. If we are unable to perform the necessary procedure we will refer you to a relevant specialist in the area.
