What Is Restorative Dentistry?
Restorative dentistry involves diagnosing and treating dental issues to restore the health, function, and appearance of your child's teeth. This includes repairing cavities, fixing broken teeth, and addressing other dental problems that can affect oral health.
Why Restorative Care Is Important
Restorative care not only fixes dental problems but also prevents them from worsening. Timely treatment can save teeth, reduce pain, and improve your child's ability to eat, speak, and smile confidently.
Benefits of Restorative Dentistry
Improved Oral Health
Restorative treatments address and repair dental issues, preventing further damage and promoting overall oral health.
Enhanced Functionality
Restorative procedures ensure that your child's teeth function correctly, allowing them to chew, speak, and smile with ease.
Aesthetic Restoration
Many restorative treatments also improve the appearance of your child's teeth, restoring their natural beauty and boosting their confidence.
Caring for Restored Teeth
Proper care is essential to maintain the health and longevity of restored teeth. Here are some tips:
- Maintain Good Oral Hygiene: Encourage your child to brush and floss regularly to keep their teeth and restorations clean.
- Avoid Hard Foods: Limit hard and sticky foods that can damage restorations.
- Regular Dental Check-Ups: Schedule regular dental visits to monitor the condition of restorations and overall oral health.
Our Restorative Services
Dental Fillings
Dental fillings are used to treat cavities and restore the integrity of a tooth. We offer tooth-colored composite fillings that blend seamlessly with your child's natural teeth, providing both functionality and aesthetics.
Dental Extractions
In cases where a tooth is too damaged to be saved, an extraction may be necessary. Our team ensures that extractions are performed gently and safely, minimizing discomfort for your child.
Crowns
Crowns are used to restore teeth that are severely damaged or decayed. They cover the entire tooth, providing strength and protection while restoring its shape and function.
Root Canals
Root canals are necessary when the pulp of a tooth becomes infected or damaged. This procedure involves removing the infected pulp, cleaning the root canals, and sealing them to prevent further infection.
Pulpotomy
A pulpotomy is a procedure used to treat decay that has reached the tooth's pulp but has not yet infected the root canals. It involves removing the affected pulp tissue and preserving the healthy part of the pulp, allowing the tooth to remain functional.
Cavity Treatment
Cavities are holes or structural damage in the teeth caused by decay. They develop when the enamel (the hard outer layer of the tooth) is worn away by acids produced by bacteria in the mouth. If left untreated, cavities can cause pain, infection, and even tooth loss.
