Transform Your Smile with Our Restorative Dentistry Services
Sometimes, despite your best efforts, dental and oral health problems like decay, tooth loss, infection, injury or damage can still occur. Oftentimes, other medical conditions can contribute to tooth loss and a decline in oral health.
At Muir Family Dentistry, our team of experts provides a range of restorative dentistry services to get your mouth back to a place of total health and to protect against future issues. We recognize the unique situations of patients in need of restorative treatment and approach each patient with empathy, kindness and our signature professional, gentle touch.
What is Restorative Dentistry?
While preventative dentistry deals with protecting your mouth from future problems and cosmetic dentistry focuses on enhancing the features of your smile, restorative dentistry handles all necessary repair, restoration and maintenance caused by decay, disease and damage.
For example, if a patient experiences an injury or trauma to the face that results in the loss of teeth, a restorative treatment option is dental implants. For patients with deep, untreated cavities resulting in an infection in the soft tissue beneath a tooth, a root canal is a restorative treatment to stop the infection from spreading and protect against future caries.
Some of the restorative needs we see most frequently at Muir Family Dentistry include root canals, decay, a need to replace a missing tooth or teeth and gum disease. As Bay Area area’s top choice in dental professionals, we are extensively experienced in treating all of this and more.
What is Considered a Restorative Dentistry Treatment?
A restorative dental treatment is anything focused on addressing an existing issue in oral health, repairing both the symptom and problem and promoting overall healing of the mouth.
Common types of dental restorations include:
- Root canals, which is when inflamed and infected pulp is removed from beneath a tooth as a result of a cavity
- Dental implants, which are used to replace missing teeth and support future bone growth
- Bridges, which fill major gaps between existing healthy teeth
- Full and partial dentures, which are removable sets of replacement teeth and are usually less expensive than what dental implants cost
- All-on-Four, which replaces a full arch of teeth with a set of implants
Implant restoration, which is when the crown used for a dental implant is updated and replaced if it begins to wear down like a natural tooth
