Restorative Dentistry Restorative dentistry is the process of covering up or capping a tooth, strengthening or improving its appearance. Crowns are placed for a number reasons: • Not enough tooth remaining to support a filling • Attach a bridge • Protect weak teeth from fracturing • Restore fractured teeth • Cover badly shaped or discolored teeth • Cover a dental implant | Materials used range from gold, porcelain, ceramic or a combination. White Fillings
These are fillings that are designed to match the color of your teeth. After the decayed portion of the tooth is removed, the dentist places a tooth-colored composite material onto the prepared surface, that is then cured with a special light and polished.
