What Is Restorative Dentistry?
Restorative dentistry includes treatments that repair or replace damaged or missing teeth. These procedures restore both the function and appearance of your smile — helping you eat, speak, and smile with ease.
Common reasons for restorative treatment include:
- Cavities or decay
- Cracked or broken teeth
- Worn-down or chipped enamel
- Missing or extracted teeth
- TMJ or bite-related pain
Many restorative procedures overlap with preventive and cosmetic goals. That’s why we take a comprehensive, whole-health approach to every treatment.
