FAQs About Restorative Dentistry

What is restoration in dentistry?

Restoration in dentistry encompasses the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of oral diseases and conditions affecting teeth, gums, and supporting structures. It involves procedures aimed at repairing or replacing damaged teeth to restore both function and aesthetics. This can include treatments such as fillings, crowns, bridges, implants, and more, all designed to revitalize your smile and improve your oral health.

What is basic restorative dentistry?

Basic restorative dentistry typically includes the most common procedures used to repair minor to moderate tooth damage. These treatments often include dental fillings to address cavities, dental bonding to repair chips or cracks, and simple crowns to protect weakened teeth. Basic restorative procedures are usually less invasive and can often be completed in a single visit to our office, providing efficient solutions for common dental issues.

What is a direct restoration in dentistry?

A direct restoration in dentistry refers to a procedure where dental material is placed directly into the prepared tooth cavity and hardened in place. The most common example is a dental filling. During this process, the dentist removes the decayed portion of the tooth, cleans the area, and then fills the cavity with a material such as composite resin or amalgam. Direct restorations are typically completed in one appointment and are ideal for repairing minor to moderate tooth damage.

What is a protective restoration in dentistry?

A protective restoration in dentistry is designed to shield and preserve a damaged or weakened tooth from further harm. This type of restoration often involves placing a dental crown over the entire visible portion of the tooth. Crowns can be made from various materials, including porcelain, metal, or a combination of both. Protective restorations not only strengthen the tooth but also improve its appearance and function, helping to prevent the need for more extensive treatments in the future.

What is an indirect restoration in dentistry?

An indirect restoration in dentistry refers to a dental prosthetic that is fabricated outside of the mouth and then bonded or cemented into place. Examples include inlays, onlays, crowns, and bridges. These restorations are typically used for larger areas of decay or damage that cannot be adequately treated with a direct filling. Indirect restorations often require two appointments: one to prepare the tooth and take impressions, and a second to place the custom-made restoration. They offer excellent durability and can closely match the appearance of natural teeth.

Wisdom Tooth Extraction Experience!

I had a fantastic experience with Dr. Chi and Deserae! From the moment I walked in, they were both so friendly and welcoming. They took the time to explain every step of the process in detail, which really helped calm my nerves. The procedure itself was incredibly smooth, fast, and completely painless. I really appreciated how both Dr. Chi and Deserae were great at having a calming conversation to keep me relaxed throughout. They also made sure I understood the aftercare process and what to expect in the days following. Highly recommend them for their professionalism and warm, caring approach!
