Restorative Dentistry

Restorative dentistry is the study, diagnosis and integrated management of diseases of the teeth and their supporting structures, and their rehabilitation to a functional and aesthetic state, encompassing the dental specialties of endodontics, periodontics, and prosthodontics, and in reality, all the disciplines that dentistry has to offer, even overlapping with cosmetic dentistry procedures designed to look and feel natural and improve appearance. Its foundation is based upon how these disciplines interact in cases, especially complicated ones, requiring multifaceted care. Restorative Dentistry includes: • Fillings • Inlays, Onlays & Veneers • Porcelain Crowns & Fixed Bridges • Dental Implants • Dentures and Partials • Root Canal Therapy • Tooth-Colored Dental Fillings • Whitening • Braces The goal is always to preserve the natural teeth as much as possible, but when teeth are missing replacement with dental implants, a bridge, or a full or partial denture will help to promote dental and overall physical health as well. When teeth are missing, those gaps are vulnerable to plaque-causing bacteria building up. Missing teeth also put extra stress on your remaining natural teeth because you don’t have as much surface area to chew with. Bone and Gum Rebuilding
