Restorative Dental Treatments in Fort Wayne

Dr. Berger and his team use restorative dentistry in ways that restore the look and function of teeth. In many ways, restorative dentistry overlaps with common cosmetic dental procedures as they use similar treatments to gain a new aesthetic. With the latest developments in dentistry, materials used are natural looking but long-lasting as well. Here are a few common restorative dental treatments offered at our Fort Wayne practice and their benefits.

Fillings

A common restorative procedure is a dental filling. When plaque builds up on teeth, acids released erode tooth enamel allowing bacteria to access dental pulp. This can lead to infection or tooth loss if left untreated. Fillings can be made of composite material that not only seals these cavities but can be color matched to your natural teeth.

Crowns

For instances of major decay that require a larger treatment than a simple filling, such as a root canal, crowns are used to restore the structure and function of a tooth. After root canal treatment is complete, a crown is placed to seal the site and protect the tooth from further decay. 
Crowns are also used for patients who grind their teeth and want to restore the look of their enamel. Our Fort Wayne restorations can be made of porcelain for a natural aesthetic.

Fixed-Bridges, Dentures, and Dental Implants

For patients who have missing teeth, these restorative procedures each provide distinct solutions and are recommended depending on the patient’s individual needs. Fixed-bridges are for patients missing one or multiple teeth and require neighboring teeth to be capped with crowns to support the fake tooth. 

Dentures and partials offer patients with part or full arches of missing teeth to have renewed function of their smiles. These may require adhesives or a metal base to adhere to the jaw. 
Dental implants can replace one to a full arch of teeth and is the only restorative dental treatment to replace the entire missing tooth from root to crown.
