About Dental Restorations

Restorations are the various ways your dentist can replace or restore your missing teeth and/or tooth structures. They also may involve the removal of decayed portions of teeth to prevent further damage.

Types Of Dental Restorations

There are several different types of dental restorations, depending on your unique oral health needs:

Fillings

Are the most common type of dental restoration. They fill a cavity in your teeth with gold, silver amalgam, or tooth-colored plastic and glass materials called composite resin fillings.

Crowns

Are a tooth-shaped “cap” that is placed over a tooth to restore its shape and size, strength, and appearance. They are also used to hold a “bridge” (fixed partial denture) in place or to cover a dental implant.

Implants

Are small, anchoring posts made of metal (usually of titanium or a titanium mixture) that are placed into the bone socket where teeth are missing. The implant may need an attachment called an abutment that will act like a crown preparation.

Inlays / Onlays

Sometimes a cavity is too big for a filling, but too small for a crown. In a case like this, your dentist might recommend an inlay or onlay. These custom restorations fit into your natural tooth structure like puzzle pieces. Your dentist permanently bonds them into place.

Bridges

Are false teeth that are designed to “bridge” the gap created by one or more missing teeth. Bridges can be anchored on either side by crowns and cemented permanently into place. Bridges are made from porcelain, gold, alloys, or a combination.

Dentures

Are a removable replacement for missing teeth and surrounding tissues. Your teeth might be gone because of gum disease, tooth decay, or an injury. They are made of acrylic resin, sometimes combined with metal attachments.

Frequently Asked Questions

More frequent questions about this dental service

Do restored teeth require extra care?

Patients with dental restorations can keep their teeth healthy using a lifelong recall and maintenance approach. This can reduce risk for failure of tooth and implant-borne restorations.

How often should I have follow-up visits to maintain my restored teeth?

In addition to maintaining regular dental hygiene practices, we recommend that patients with dental restorations should have clinical examinations to clean, adjust, repair, or replace their restorations at least every six months.

What steps should I follow at home to care for my restored teeth?

Your prosthodontist will create an at-home maintenance plan that is tailored to you. These are some key steps to ensure the health of your restored teeth:

1. Brush your teeth with a fluoride toothpaste at least twice a day.

2. Floss your teeth once a day.

3. Use a mouthwash recommended by your prosthodontist.

4. Wear a night guard (if recommended by your prosthodontist) to protect your restorations.

5. Don't smoke or chew tobacco.

6. Avoid eating a high-sugar diet.

With these recommendations, your restored teeth are more likely to last longer, feel good, and look great.

What’s the recovery time after a restorative dentistry procedure?

It depends on a few factors, including the type of procedure and the number of teeth that need treatment. For example, someone who has one cavity filled will be able to resume normal activities immediately. However, someone who has four dental implants placed may need a couple of days off to recover. Your dentist can tell you what kind of recovery timeline to expect in your situation

Do I need anesthesia for tooth restoration?

Professional Dental anesthesia is often used for tooth restoration. As a result, you are awake and aware during procedures, but pain is minimized. Dental anesthesia can be mild or more extensive depending on the needs of the patient and what tooth restoration procedure is administered.
