A good decision starts
with a good conversation.
Restorative care includes approaches such as fillings, crowns and bridges. The appropriate option depends on an examination and the individual tooth or teeth involved. Your clinician can explain the purpose of a proposed treatment, relevant alternatives and what ongoing care may involve.
Bring the questions that matter to you. Ask what your clinician recommends, why they recommend it and what other approaches could be considered. You should have the opportunity to understand the plan before making a decision.
