Restorative Dentistry
For most people, tooth damage and decay are an inevitability that we fight off for as long as possible with dental hygiene and regular cleanings. Your lifestyle, age, and genetics can give you more or less time with your natural teeth, not to mention the injuries that can shorten the lifetime of a tooth. Thankfully, restorative dentistry can preserve natural teeth with high-quality materials and replace missing teeth with life-like restorations.
At Greene Street Dental, our dentists and dental professionals want nothing more than health and happiness for you. We want to work with you by offering convenient, compassionate care that caters to your unique needs and preferences. You deserve to wear a smile that makes you proud, and we have the tools to give you that.
At first glance, restorative dentistry may seem like a means to restore functionality to teeth. However, repairing and replacing teeth is so much more than that.
When teeth are missing or damaged, feeling confident and happy with one’s appearance or ability to speak and interact with others can be challenging. For many people, reinstating a smile helps them reconstitute their self-esteem and outlook on life.
Also, restorative dentistry has protective benefits. Most restorative treatments are designed to prevent further damage. For example, dental crowns protect exposed, delicate layers underneath the enamel. Furthermore, tooth replacement devices (like bridges and dental implants) can prevent teeth on either side of the gap from drifting and misaligning.
Overall, restorative dentistry is about reinstating functionality, contentedness, and health for the patient.
