temecula restorative dentistryWhen you have teeth in need of repair, we can offer this with restorative dentistry. Our treatments include lifelike dental fillings and even custom crowns! In today’s blog, your team at Riverside Dental Group talks about the discreet and lifelike repair we offer with restorative dentistry.

When Smiles Need Restorative Dentistry

When should you reach out to our team for a dental restoration? We could recommend restorative dentistry for people who experience painful toothaches and sensitivity, as this discomfort could be related to a cavity or possibly an infection. If you sustain an injury that chips, breaks, or cracks a tooth, we could help with a restoration so you avoid issues like tooth decay and infection. We could also reshape teeth and offer improved chewing function and bite balance with them too! To ensure your placement is comfortable, we can also offer local anesthesia and sedation.

Dental Fillings

For a cavity, we could place a filling in one visit. Instead of metal materials, our fillings will be made from a safe and biocompatible metal-free composite resin, which can also be shaded to blend with the tooth and look natural. Placement only takes one visit, and leaves you with results that are safe and natural-looking. The material is safe for all ages too.

Inlays and Onlays

What if you have a situation too severe for a filling, but not advanced enough that a full crown is required? In a situation like this, we could help with a partial crown, also known as an inlay or onlay. Made from ceramic, these will be shaded to blend with your tooth. The inlay fits in between the cusps on top of your teeth, while the onlay fits over these cusps.

Dental Crowns

A dental crown covers the entire visible portion of your tooth, and again we can opt for lifelike materials. For the front-facing teeth, we could suggest all porcelain, which is the most lifelike option. For the side and rear teeth, which ensures greater bite forces and pressures, we could instead offer a porcelain-fused-to-metal or zirconia option, which are more durable but also lifelike in appearance. If you have any questions about restorative dentistry, then contact our team today to learn more.
