Restorative Dentistry
Crowns
If you have a damaged tooth, it can become more susceptible to decay. A dental crown is a porcelain or gold sleeve fitted over the damaged tooth to restore its original structure and function so you can chew, eat and smile as normal.
At Mitcham Dental Clinic we use cutting edge technology that can help make your crown appear to be part of your own tooth structure. Alternatively, you may need a bridge to help you touch up your smile. A bridge may be used if a single tooth or adjacent teeth are missing, or if the teeth on either side of the space are badly broken or heavily worn down.
What are the benefits of dental crowns?
- Increase the strength of a tooth.
- Restore tooth function.
- Prevent further erosion or breakage.
- Enhance the aesthetics of a tooth.
Bridges
A dental bridge is essentially a series of artificial teeth or one false tooth which is made of porcelain to replace missing teeth. A bridge can also be affixed to two artificial teeth on its side, so these outer artificial teeth can be fitted over the remaining natural teeth and render the vacant space.
Dental bridges serve to restore the aesthetics and function of your smile and can provide patients with the following benefits:
- Replace missing teeth so you can smile and speak confidently.
- Dental bridges look natural so your smile will look authentic.
- Prevents remaining teeth from moving.
- Reduces the risk of bone loss.

I've have been a long standing patient of the Mitcham Dental Clinic and there's a reason for that. From the greeting the moment you walk in the door, to the service and care you receive whilst being tended to; the experience is nothing short of amazing. The front of house staff make the experience painless and pleasant; they're attentive and go beyond the extra steps to accommodate your needs. I would strongly recommend this dental clinic for anyone looking for a caring, sensitive and attentive care from the moment you first attend, to every experience that you have with them. Thanks to all at the Mitcham Dental Clinic, Tim

Have to update my post - seriously, Dr Ron and the team are just absolutely amazing. This is coming from someone that's just walked out of a root canal - with zero discomfort, zero pain. Seeing Dr Ron has taught me one thing - going to the dentist doesn't have to be a painful and terrifying experience - it's all about patient comfort (and obviously tooth care). Just brilliant! Original post: Amazing all around service. Dr Ron and his staff are wonder workers - they're all about putting patients at ease - talking through procedures, getting the time to know you as a patient (I'm one of those people that don't really love visiting the dentist) - but they all are there to help you through the process - it's actually awesome - turning my experiences there into a pain and stress free procedure. Also, while I was waiting (and they did it for me too), I saw the reception staff with the patients leaving - they actually sat down and worked out the best possible way to pay - i.e. how to minimise the customers cost. If I could give them 10 stars, I would!

For many years, I have been traveling for nearly an hour from Ringwood to Bundoora Dental clinic to see my dentist, as I know he is excellent. He retired last year and I was looking for a local dentist. I was grateful to find Dr. Ron Fulop of Mitcham Dental, i did 2 filling and 1 crowning with him. Ron is a true professional who alway put patients’ health and well-being at high priority, he was good at establishing trust with patients with a good sense of humour. He has a gentle approach in his service. I would highly recommend his great service.
