Restorative Care
Restorative care in dentistry encompasses procedures designed to repair and restore the function and aesthetics of damaged or missing teeth. This involves a range of treatments, such as fillings, crowns, bridges, implants, and dentures, tailored to address individual patient needs. The process typically begins with a thorough examination and diagnosis to assess the extent of the dental issues and determine the most appropriate course of action.
Restorative dental procedures aim to restore the structural integrity of teeth and improve oral health, chewing ability, speech, and overall appearance. Using advanced techniques and materials, restorative dentistry aims to provide durable and natural-looking solutions that enhance oral function and aesthetics, ultimately promoting oral health and overall well-being.
Did you know that according to the American College of Prosthodontists, over 178 million Americans are missing at least one tooth, and around 40 million Americans are missing all of their teeth in one or both jaws?
COMMON RESTORATIVE DENTAL PROCEDURES
Dental fillings are among the most common restorative procedures used to treat cavities caused by tooth decay. During the procedure, our dentist in Austin, TX, removes the decayed portion of the tooth and fills the cavity with a durable material, such as composite resin. Fillings restore the tooth's shape and function and prevent further decay and damage.
