What is Restorative Dentistry?

Restorative dentistry involves the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of oral health issues that affect the teeth, gums, and supporting structures. This branch of dentistry aims to restore the normal function and aesthetics of the teeth, helping to improve overall oral health and quality of life.

Our Restorative Dentistry Services

We offer a comprehensive range of restorative dental services to meet the needs of children and teens. Here are the main restorative treatments we provide:

• Dental Fillings: Used to repair teeth affected by decay or minor damage, dental fillings restore the tooth’s shape and function.
• Dental Extractions: Sometimes, removing a tooth is necessary to protect the health of the surrounding teeth and gums. We provide safe and gentle extractions when needed.
• Dental Crowns/Caps: Dental crowns, also known as caps, are used to restore teeth that are severely damaged or decayed, providing strength and protection.
• Cavity Treatment: Comprehensive care to treat and prevent cavities, including fillings, sealants, and fluoride treatments.
• Root Canals: A procedure to treat and save severely infected or damaged teeth, preventing the need for extraction.
• Pulpotomy: A treatment used to remove infected pulp tissue in children’s primary (baby) teeth, preserving the tooth and preventing further infection.

Benefits of Restorative Dentistry for Kids

Restorative dentistry offers numerous benefits for your child’s oral health:

• Restores Function: Repairs damaged teeth, allowing for proper chewing and speaking.
• Improves Aesthetics: Enhances the appearance of your child’s smile by restoring damaged or decayed teeth.
