“The restoration of a deep cavity or the addition of dental veneers do not have to be more damaging than necessary. Minimally Invasive Dentistry works towards strengthening and enhancing the natural tooth rather than damaging it.”
- Dr Joe Hooper, Dentist of Hooper Tooth Conserving Dentistry, Rose Bay
Here at Hooper Tooth Conserving Dentistry in the Eastern Suburb of Rose Bay, our principal dentists aim to provide services that go beyond simple dental check-ups with minimally invasive dentistry. With an array of treatments for preventing decay and damage, restoring teeth and cosmetically enhancing smiles, Joe and Gerry Hooper focus on keeping your smile healthy for life.
There are a few different key focus points that separate a regular dentist from a minimally invasive dentist (MID). Minimally invasive dentistry is really about doing everything within our power to preserve as much of your natural tooth as much as possible.
Thanks to advancements in dental technology and materials, at Hooper Tooth Conserving Dentistry we can provide cosmetic dentistry and restorative dental treatments that conserve more of the natural tooth.
Often times with regular dental treatments your dentist may remove more of the tooth’s natural structure than necessary, causing the tooth to need a greater restoration.
Rather than damaging the tooth structure, minimally invasive dentistry combines skill and precision to remove only the decay and debris from the tooth. This way the tooth has a greater chance of being restored with a dental onlay without the need for a dental crown.
Are you thinking of improving your smile? Cosmetic dentistry doesn’t only include treatments that whiten your teeth but it can also be used to disguise cracks and chips. Treatments like porcelain veneers and composite resin veneers have the capability to improve a number of different cosmetic concerns.
Composite veneers offer a more biologically friendly approach with the chance for single day application. As the less invasive veneer procedure, composite veneers use a resin that is bonded onto the visible part of the tooth. This resin is strong and provides a solid natural looking replication of the tooth’s enamel.
Porcelain veneers on the other hand are complete covers for the front of the teeth. Custom designed as thin tooth-shaped shells of porcelain, this cosmetic treatment requires the removal of a small amount of the natural tooth’s enamel before being placed.
Depending on which treatment is better suited to your needs, your Hooper Tooth Conserving Dentistry will ensure you have all the necessary information prior to commencing your treatment.
