Restorative Dentistry in North Austin
While proper brushing, flossing, and periodic cleanings and exams in the office contribute to a healthy smile, sometimes, even with the best dental care, patients can experience cracked, chipped, or even missing teeth that affect the way someone looks and feels about themselves. That’s where restorative dentistry comes in.
What is It?
Restorative dentistry provides the perfect “fix” for those missing and damaged teeth and prevents them from affecting adjacent teeth. Common restorative treatments include:
- Veneers, very thin covers are placed on the fronts of teeth to cover and correct gaps, stains or chips.
- A dental implant is used to replace a missing tooth.
- Inlays and Onlays correct teeth that are too damaged for a filling and not damaged enough to require a crown.
- Crowns or “caps” that fit over existing teeth to replace missing or damaged tooth structures.
- Partial dentures replace several missing teeth and full dentures that replace all teeth provide removable replacements that look and feel natural.
- Root Canal Therapy removes infected tissue from the roots of a tooth below the gum line. Using new and advanced technology, there’s far less pain associated with the procedure today.
