Restorative Dentistry

Description:

Restorative treatment repairs damaged or worn teeth. This may involve fillings, crowns or other procedures to restore function and appearance. We explain the materials and options available for each situation.

Frequently Asked Questions

We recommend scheduling checkups based on your individual oral health and risk factors rather than a fixed interval. For most patients, every 6 months is ideal, but some may need more or fewer visits.

Your consultation begins with a discussion of your concerns, medical history, and symptoms. The dentist then examines your teeth, gums, and bite, and may recommend diagnostic tests such as X-rays before discussing treatment options.

Scaling and polishing is a professional cleaning that removes plaque and tartar buildup from your teeth — especially areas your toothbrush can't reach. It helps prevent gum disease and keeps your mouth fresh and healthy.

Yes, professional teeth whitening at our clinic is safe and effective. We use clinically proven methods and tailor the treatment to your teeth's condition. Over-the-counter products may be less effective and can irritate gums if not used correctly.

A filling restores a decayed or damaged tooth by removing the decayed portion and filling it with a durable material. We discuss the available materials — such as composite or amalgam — to find the best option for your tooth.

Yes. Modern digital X-rays use very low radiation. We only take them when necessary for diagnosis and explain why each one is needed.

Fluoride treatment strengthens tooth enamel and helps prevent decay. It is especially recommended for children, but adults at higher risk of cavities can also benefit.

Common signs include red or swollen gums, bleeding while brushing or flossing, persistent bad breath, receding gums, and loose teeth. If you notice any of these, early evaluation can prevent further damage.

Yes, we perform extractions when a tooth cannot be saved due to severe decay, infection, or damage. We discuss replacement options such as implants, bridges, or dentures afterward.

Wisdom teeth are the last molars to emerge, usually in the late teens or early twenties. They may need removal if they are impacted, cause pain, crowd other teeth, or are difficult to clean. Not every case requires removal — we assess each situation individually.
