Understanding Restorative Dentistry

Restorative dentistry is the branch of dentistry that deals with replacing and repair of missing or damaged teeth. The procedures that fall under this category of dentistry are those that are focused on improving the patient's oral health and functions.

General dentists, which are commonly referred to as family dentists, are capable of performing various restorative dental treatments. Unlike other branches of dentistry, restorative does not require any type of specialization. This treatment is more on the preventative and corrective side of dentistry so that your mouth and teeth can stay healthy for years.

Who Needs Restorative Procedures?

Here are the most common reasons why our patients undergo restorative dentistry procedures.

  1. You want to prevent the further development of tooth decay.
  2. You need a replacement for your missing teeth.
  3. You want to fix broken and/or chipped teeth.
  4. There are necessary tooth repairs that must be done after your root canal surgery.
  5. You simply want to ensure you’ll have a whiter, brighter, and healthier smile.

Types of Procedures & Treatments Under Restorative Dentistry

There are different types of available restorative procedures we offer to our patients. It all depends on what they need and want to achieve. Listed below are some of the most common services we offer:

Fillings

Composite fillings are used to repair and stabilize a tooth that has been damaged due to cavities and tooth decay.

Crowns

In cases when fillings are no longer enough, crowns are the next best solution you have to fix and restore them. In this restorative procedure, dentists would build a cap that will cover the top of the teeth or the gum line.

Bridges

Bridges are similar to crowns in the aspect in they cover the same areas. The only difference is it bonds a set of crowns to a “bridge” and covers them all together.

Bonding

Tooth or dental bonding is the process of repairing chipped or damaged teeth by recreating the missing portion of the enamel. Bondings are usually made from composite materials which will be attached to the remaining tooth.

Implants

Implants involve the process of replacing missing tooth structures with artificial teeth and roots. They are usually attached by metal posts that have been fully integrated into your gums and jaw bone.
