Crowns are typically used to restore a tooth's function and appearance following a restorative procedure such as a root canal. When decay in a tooth has become so advanced that large portions of the tooth must be removed, crowns are often used to restore the tooth. Crowns are also used to attach bridges, cover implants, prevent a cracked tooth from becoming worse.Crowns also serve an aesthetic use, and are applied when a discolored or stained tooth needs to be restored to its natural appearance.

"Root canal therapy is needed when the nerve of a tooth is affected by decay,infection or trauma. In order to save the tooth, the pulp (the living tissue inside the tooth), nerves, bacteria, and any decay are removed and the resulting space is filled with special, medicated, dental materials, which restore the tooth to its full function. Having a root canal done on a tooth is the treatment of choice to save a tooth that otherwise would die and have to be extracted."
Apicoectomy is also known as root canal surgery, where your tooth's root tip is removed along with the infected tissue, before a filling is placed to seal the end of the root.
Root planing is a non-surgical deep cleaning treatment, to removal dental plaques, tartar and dirt from your tooth surface and underneath your gum line.

During a dental implantation procedure, a dental implant is used as a surgical component in the bone of the jaw to support dental restorative treatments like dental crowns, dental bridges, dentures, or sometimes for dental braces.
Titanium dental implants are made from the metal titanium, which is known to be compatible with body tissues and able to bond with adjacent bone during healing. Dental implants support dental restorative treatments like dental crowns, dental bridges, dentures, or sometimes for dental braces.
Mini dental implants are smaller alternatives to traditional dental implants, usually used in situations where only a small implant is needed, like in a narrow location or the loss of a small teeth (e.g. incisor).

A dental filling is a type of dental restoration procedure done by filling a decaying or a broken and damaged tooth with specific types of materials. There are different types of dental filling materials like gold, silver or amalgam fillings, and composite resins.
Composite (plastic) resins are matched to be the same colour as your teeth and therefore used where a natural appearance is desired. The ingredients are mixed and placed directly into the cavity, where they harden. Composites may not be the ideal material for large fillings as they may chip or wear over time. They can also become stained from coffee, tea or tobacco, and do not last as long as other types of fillings generally from three to 10 years.
Bridges are natural-looking dental appliances that can replace a section of missing teeth. Because they are custom-made, bridges are barely noticeable and can restore the natural contour of teeth as well as the proper bite relationship between upper and lower teeth.
Maryland bonded bridges (also called a resin-bonded bridge or a Maryland bridge) are made of porcelain, porcelain fused to metal, or plastic teeth and gums supported by a metal or porcelain framework. Metal or porcelain wings on each side of the bridge are bonded to your existing teeth.
Cantilever bridges are used when there are adjacent teeth on only one side of the missing tooth or teeth. This is not very common anymore and is not recommended in the back of the mouth where it can put too much force on other teeth and damage them.
Traditional bridges involve creating a crown for the tooth or implant on both side of the missing tooth, with a pontic in between. Traditional bridges are the most common type of bridge and are made of either porcelain fused to metal or ceramics.
