Tooth reconstruction in Barcelona
We rebuild broken teeth, teeth with large cavities or old fillings. We use composite or ceramic bonded to the tooth, which strengthens it and blends in with the rest of your smile.
CAD-CAM since 1992
In 1992 we were pioneers in Barcelona in using dental CAD-CAM. Today we design and mill inlays, crowns and veneers in our own clinic with the latest version of CEREC.
Why rebuild it properly
There are many ways to rebuild a tooth. In each case we choose the technique and materials that will give the best result.
Composite and ceramic are bonded to the tooth: they seal, protect and strengthen it, unlike old metal fillings.
We reproduce the colour, shape and translucency of your teeth so the restoration is almost imperceptible.
We preserve as much healthy structure as possible and choose the most conservative restoration for your case.
Types of reconstruction
Depending on how much tooth is missing and where, we recommend the longest-lasting, most conservative option.
We rebuild the tooth in layers, with composites of different elasticity and translucency, so it is strong and invisible.
When a lot of tooth is missing, we scan it in 3D, design the piece on the computer and mill it at the clinic with CEREC from a block of ceramic.
We replace old metal fillings with composite or ceramic, following a safety protocol so you are not exposed to mercury residue.
Step by step
With digital technology and manufacturing in our own clinic.
We show you on screen what state your tooth is in and explain which option is best: composite, inlay or crown.
If the restoration is ceramic, we scan your teeth with the intraoral scanner, with no impression paste.
We design the piece on the computer and the CEREC unit mills it from a block of ceramic, with a 30-micron fit.
We isolate the tooth with a rubber dam and bond the restoration with the latest bonding systems.

«Cuando era pequeño me rompí a la mitad el incisivo central superior izquierdo, causando que un dentista al que iba me hiciese una reconstrucción que dejó mucho que desear […]. Acudí a la Clínica Dental Padrós y no podrían haber hecho un mejor trabajo. Tan siquiera se percibe que tenga una reconstrucción.»

Your first visit
This is not a quick check-up. For 45 minutes, a dentist and their assistant study the health, function and aesthetics of your mouth in depth, using all our diagnostic technology. You leave knowing exactly what you have, what your options are and how much it costs — all explained in English.
We start by understanding what concerns you and what brought you to the clinic.
Decay, wear, gums, soft tissue, jaw joint, chewing muscles, breathing and hydration, with an intraoral camera.
Professional clinical photography, 3D intraoral scan, X-ray and infrared decay detection.
You go through the analysis with the dentist, see similar cases and, where relevant, a digital simulation of your treatment.

Composite is ideal for small and medium restorations. When a lot of tooth is missing, a ceramic inlay or crown is stronger. At your first visit we recommend the best option for your case.
Amalgams don’t bond to the tooth, which is left weaker, and they expand with cold and heat differently from the tooth, which over the years causes cracks and fractures. Composite and ceramic are bonded, strengthen the tooth and look natural.
We remove them following a safety protocol: a rubber dam so you can’t swallow or inhale any residue, high-power suction next to the tooth, special amalgam filters and eye protection. This prevents exposure to mercury residue.
It is a CAD-CAM system: we scan the tooth in 3D, design the restoration on the computer and a milling unit carves it at the clinic from a block of ceramic, with a 30-micron fit.
No. When necessary we work with local anaesthetic, and first apply a numbing gel so you don’t feel the injection.
Made with good bonding technique and the right materials, many years. With regular check-ups we catch any wear or leakage in time.
When wear affects many teeth, due to bruxism or erosion, we plan a full rehabilitation. We explain it on our bruxism and worn teeth page.
