Common Questions About Restorative Dentistry
What does restorative dentistry include?
Restorative dentistry includes a variety of treatments aimed at fixing or replacing damaged teeth. These treatments can involve tooth fillings, root canals, crowns, bridges, implants, and even full-mouth reconstruction. At Mayfair Family Dentistry, our skilled team uses these restorative methods to help restore your smile and improve your bite strength.
What does restorative dentistry cost?
We provide many types of restorative dentistry services, each with different levels of difficulty. Because of this, the cost of each treatment can vary. Basic procedures, such as tooth fillings, are usually much less expensive than more complex treatments like dental crowns, root canals, or tooth replacements. Many dental insurance plans help cover part of the cost for restorative dental work to make it more affordable.
What are the benefits of restorative dentistry?
A healthy mouth involves more than just having clean teeth and gums. Over time, you might require restorative dental care to fix problems that cause pain, make it hard to use your mouth properly, or put your overall oral health at risk. Restorative dentistry helps treat issues such as cavities, infections, injuries, and missing teeth to maintain your mouth's function and health.
