Get Your Teeth to Their Healthy Glory with Restorative Dentistry

Restorative dentistry in Poway, California, is an excellent way to rebuild your teeth after disease, injury, or decay. Restorative dental care uses fillings, onlays, partial crowns, full crowns, bridges, and other treatments to restore your smile’s function and aesthetics.

Think of restorative dentistry as repairing an old house. Just like an old house might need repairs to its walls, roof, and fixtures, your teeth might need treatments to restore their function and appearance. Pearls of Dentistry offers restorative dentistry to ensure you can chew, smile, and eat without pain. If you have damaged, missing, or otherwise compromised teeth, schedule an appointment today with Drs. Lynne Thomas and Juergen Langenbach to restore your smile to its former glory.

What are our restorative dentistry options?

Tooth damage never happens predictably. Our services include several restorative options to provide a solution for every smile. Rebuild, refresh, and revitalize your dentition with the following restorative options.

  • Dental fillings: We repair cavities and minor tooth damage with tooth-colored (composite or ceramic) fillings. Unlike amalgams used in the past, composite fillings are engineered from safe, biocompatible materials. Placing a dental filling is a painless and fast procedure that only requires one visit.
  • Inlays/Onlays: Sometimes, you may have tooth damage that is significant for a typical composite filling but doesn’t warrant a full dental crown. Our team restores your tooth conservatively for these in-between cases with a ceramic dental inlay or onlay. This lab-made restoration repairs damage within the chewing surface and extends to one or more cusps. Indirect fillings restore your tooth’s function and appearance without invasive tooth preparation.
  • Full dental crowns: Also known as a dental cap, a full dental crown reinforces the remaining tooth structure to restore your tooth’s size, shape, and health. The dental crown is designed to match the color of your tooth for a seamless appearance. Dental crowns have numerous uses in dentistry. Our dentist can use dental crowns to repair damaged teeth, replace missing teeth, and enhance aesthetically appealing teeth.
  • Implants: Have you lost one or more teeth? You no longer have to smile, eat, or speak with discomfort. A dental implant rebuilds your entire tooth to restore its function and aesthetics like natural teeth. An implant is a titanium post surgically placed in the jawbone to support a crown, denture, or bridge. What does this mean for you? Dental implants can replace one tooth or an entire arch of missing teeth.
  • Bridges: A dental bridge uses a set of prosthetic teeth to span a gap between two healthy teeth or implants. Our dental bridges are created with excellent precision and high-quality materials to replicate your smile’s function and appearance to near perfect.
  • Bone grafting: A bone graft replenishes lost bone tissue to stabilize your jawbone after losing its volume and density to dental trauma, gum disease, or tooth loss.
  • Full mouth reconstruction: Also known as full mouth restoration, full mouth rehabilitation restores your dentition’s function and aesthetics when faced with severe and ongoing issues.
