What Is Restorative Dentistry?
Although many people have heard of restorative dentistry, they may not be aware of what it entails and its ultimate objective. Restorative dentistry is a specialized field of dentistry that focuses on restoring the functionality and overall appearance of your smile using various dental prostheses. Everything from tooth fillings to dental bridges falls under tooth restoration dentistry and seeks to accomplish similar objectives. Our team will give you all the information you need on our services to decide if they're right for your smile.
One of the most significant benefits of restorative dentistry is avoiding potentially serious complications. When your tooth's protective enamel is compromised by tooth decay or traumatic damage, it creates a channel for harmful bacteria to enter. Without professional attention, it can result in complications like infection or tooth loss. Our restorative dentistry will protect your smile and help you avoid problems altogether. For example, restorations like crowns and bridges reduce your chance of developing tooth decay in the future.
Our Extensive Restorative Options
At Sunstar Dental, we understand that no two patients have the same smile restoration needs. That's why we take the time to gauge your overall needs and craft a personalized restorative plan centered around them. When you visit our dental office for the first time, Dr. Reyna-Vukotich will conduct a comprehensive oral exam to get a clearer understanding of your teeth, gums, and jawbones. She'll also ask you various questions concerning how you're feeling, your dental history, and your dental goals.
Once we have all the information we need, our team will present you with your personalized plan. It's important to note that we offer traditional and implant-supported options, which may include:
- Tooth Fillings: Tooth fillings, also called dental fillings, are a type of restoration that's used to repair minor cavities and damage to your teeth. Normally, tooth fillings are the first line of defense for your smile as we try to save more extensive options for serious issues. We use natural-looking materials for your filling so that it seamlessly blends in with your smile.
- Dental Crowns: Dental crowns, also referred to as caps, are a special type of restoration that boosts the functionality and appearance of a single tooth. By removing any decayed or damaged portions from your tooth, a crown fits over it and looks just like your natural teeth. To help meet the needs of all our patients, we offer ceramic, gold, and porcelain-fused-to-metal options.
- Dental Bridges: Dental bridges are a unique type of restoration that can restore up to three teeth in a row. You can expect your new bridge to match the size and appearance of your natural teeth so that you spend less time adjusting to it and more time enjoying its benefits.
- Dentures: If you're looking for an effective way to replace several or even entire arches of teeth, our office is here for you. Dentures are comprised of artificial teeth sitting on top of a pink acrylic base to create functional and aesthetic full tooth replacement options. We pride ourselves on our extensive denture options, which include full dentures, partial dentures, and flippers.
