Restorative Dentistry
Restorative dentistry focuses on repairing or replacing damaged, decayed, or missing teeth to restore proper function, oral health, and in some cases, aesthetics. Whether it’s fixing a single tooth or rebuilding the entire mouth, restorative treatments aim to help patients chew, speak, and smile comfortably again.
This area of dentistry brings together multiple disciplines – including Implant Dentistry, Endodontics, Cosmetic Dentistry, and Prosthodontics – to provide tailored solutions depending on each case. Treatment may involve simple procedures like fillings, or more complex work such as crowns, bridges, root canal treatment, dental implants, or full dentures.
For patients with several dental issues affecting multiple teeth, full mouth rehabilitation may be recommended. This comprehensive approach restores the full set of teeth by combining different treatments across the four disciplines, helping patients regain function and confidence.
Restorative procedures are typically carried out by general dentists with training in this field and play an important role in preventing further damage, preserving remaining teeth, and supporting long-term oral health.
