What Is Restorative Dentistry?
Restorative dentistry focuses on repairing or replacing teeth to improve your health, the function of your teeth, and your appearance. Cosmetic dentistry and restorative dentistry procedures are similar, as they can both offer functional and cosmetic improvements. Dr. Reiser will perform a comprehensive examination and take dental x-rays to determine what type of dental procedure will be most effective for your needs.
Who Needs Restorative Dentistry?
You should consider restorative dentistry if you have damaged, decayed, broken, or infected teeth that need to be removed. You may also need a restorative dentistry procedure if you have one or more missing teeth. You should make an appointment if you have dental or oral pain or discomfort related to tooth damage, injury, infection, or decay or if you have an existing dental restoration that is causing you discomfort.

Our Restorative Dentistry Treatment Options
We offer comprehensive restorative dentistry treatment options. Dr. Reiser and his skilled staff will evaluate the health and condition of your teeth, gums, and jawbone to determine what procedure is right for you. Our goal is to improve the health and function of your teeth and restore their appearance. Our restorative dentistry procedures can restore your ability to chew, speak, and eat. We specialize in the following restorative dentistry treatment options:
- Dental Fillings – When you have a dental cavity, it eats away at your tooth enamel and creates a hole. Dr. Reiser will clean out the infection and then use a dental filling to seal your tooth and prevent discomfort or infection.
- Dental Crowns – A dental crown is a tooth-colored cap placed over your tooth to repair damage, strengthen the tooth, or restore it after a root canal or cavity.
- Inlays and Onlays – Dental inlays and onlays are procedures that repair and restore a tooth when a dental cavity has created a hole that is too big for a dental filling but too small for a dental crown. It is a custom dental restoration carefully constructed to fill in missing pieces or cover damage.
- Dental Bridges – A dental bridge can replace one or more missing teeth using artificial teeth anchored by dental crowns.
- Dental Implants – A dental implant is a natural-looking, semi-permanent tooth replacement option. They are rods inserted into your gum and jawbone that act as tooth roots. A prosthetic tooth is attached to the implant once your mouth heals.
- Dentures – Dentures are fixed or removable prosthetics that replace missing teeth or a whole arch or mouth of missing teeth.
- Full Mouth Reconstruction – A full mouth reconstruction is an extensive restorative dentistry procedure that replaces most or all of your teeth.
- Tooth Extractions – If your tooth is too decayed, damaged, or infected to preserve, Dr. Reiser will recommend a tooth extraction. You can then discuss your options for tooth replacement.
- Root Canal Therapy – Root canal therapy can preserve your tooth and help you avoid a tooth extraction if you have a major infection. Dr. Reiser will clean out the infected pulp and fill in your tooth, sealing it with dental putty and a dental crown.
