How a Restorative Dentist Can Help Give You a New Smile

A restorative dentist repairs damage to teeth and the supporting structures of teeth. They aim to improve the appearance, health, and function of the patient’s smile. Many offer a range of services and can address concerns such as damage to teeth enamel, gum complications, and jaw misalignment concerns.

The cosmetic benefits of visiting a restorative dentist

Many people visit a restorative dentist to address oral health and functional concerns, but restorative dentists can also improve the appearance of a patient’s smile. The following are five cosmetic benefits that people often receive by visiting a restorative dentist for treatment.

Achieve a brighter smile

Many restorative dentists offer services that specifically address teeth stains. This includes professional, in-office teeth whitening for mild to moderate stains. Restorative dentists also provide dental veneers and bonding treatment in many cases, which may be better solutions for severe teeth stains. In some cases, a dental cleaning to remove plaque and tartar build-up on teeth is all that a restorative dentist needs to do to improve the shade of the patient's natural teeth.

Address enamel damage

Enamel erosion and damage are among the most common reasons for restorative dentistry. This type of damage often occurs as a result of acidic attacks caused by bacteria inside the mouth. Restorative dentists can repair enamel damage in various ways, including dental fillings, dental veneers, dental bonding, and dental crowns, among other possible restorative solutions, depending on the severity and cause of the enamel damage.

Lengthen misshapen or short teeth

Restorative dentists can help improve a patient’s smile by creating a more even and symmetric smile. This may include lengthening teeth that are naturally too short, chipped, or worn down from bruxism. They can also address misshapen teeth in many cases through treatments such as dental bonding and porcelain veneers.

Improve the alignment of the jaw and teeth

Many restorative dentists also offer orthodontic treatment solutions, such as metal braces and clear aligners. These are ideal for addressing issues such as crooked teeth, overcrowding, gaps between teeth, and jaw misalignments, such as an overbite or underbite. In some cases, porcelain veneers can be used to address mild cases of teeth misalignment.

Improve the appearance of the gums

Restorative dentists often provide periodontal services, such as gum contouring, which involves removing excess gum tissue to address issues such as a “gummy smile.” These dentists can also help address gum disease, which can help improve the patient’s smile by improving the overall health of their gums and jawbone.
