Frequently Asked Questions About Restorative Dentistry
Q: What is restorative dentistry?
A: Restorative dentistry focuses on repairing or replacing teeth to restore their function and appearance. This includes treatments like fillings, crowns, bridges, implants, and dentures.
Q: What’s the difference between a crown and a filling?
A: A filling is used to repair a small cavity, while a crown covers the entire tooth when there’s extensive damage or decay.
Q: Are dental implants better than dentures?
A: Dental implants provide a permanent, natural-looking replacement for missing teeth, while dentures are a removable option. Implants help preserve bone structure, whereas dentures may require adjustments over time.
