Questions and Answers: Restorations
Question: Does restorative dentistry ever help my smile look better?
Answer: The goal of restorative dentistry is to repair your smile. While the end result is not always cosmetic in nature, restorative care does often improve the appearance of your smile. For instance, a tooth-colored filling will repair a cavity and restore the beauty of your tooth. Or, replacing missing teeth will improve both your oral health and your appearance.
Question: Does restorative dentistry address most types of tooth damage? What about infections?
Answer: Yes, we provide restorative treatments to address a full spectrum of damage. We will restore your smile in response to tooth decay, broken teeth, dislodged teeth, an infected tooth, and even tooth loss.
Question: Are there negative consequences to postponing restorative dentistry treatments?
Answer: Usually, yes. When your smile is unwell or damaged, the problem is often progressive or leaves your smile vulnerable to further injury. For instance, a cavity may become large, result in infection, and the tooth may eventually break. A broken tooth may suddenly shatter. An infection may spread throughout your mouth. Schedule restorations immediately to prevent serious side effects.
