What Is Restorative Dentistry?

Restorative dentistry focuses on repairing and rebuilding damaged or missing teeth to restore function, comfort, and appearance. It includes treatments such as fillings, crowns, bridges, and implants, all designed to bring back your natural smile and oral health.

The process begins with an exam to assess the health of your teeth and gums. Using advanced imaging, your dentist creates a personalized plan that may include repairing decayed areas, replacing missing teeth, or strengthening weakened enamel.

Professional restorative care offers durable, long-lasting results that over-the-counter kits cannot match. At Boeschenstein & Middleton Family Dentistry, we use precise techniques and materials that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, helping you smile and chew with confidence again.

How to Prepare for Your Restorative Dentistry Appointment

Before your appointment, maintain your normal oral hygiene routine—brushing and flossing thoroughly to keep the treatment area clean. Bring a list of any medications and share your dental history with your dentist.

Avoid eating heavy meals right before treatment, especially if sedation will be used. Refrain from smoking or drinking alcohol prior to your visit, as these can interfere with healing and comfort.

Depending on the procedure, you may need multiple appointments to complete your restorative treatment. Your dentist in Jenison, MI will explain the timeline, discuss recovery expectations, and help schedule follow-ups for best results.

Aftercare for Restorative Dentistry

After your restorative procedure, follow your dentist’s specific instructions for care. Mild soreness or sensitivity may occur for a day or two, which can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers.

Avoid hard, sticky, or chewy foods for several days while your restoration sets. If anesthesia was used, wait until full feeling returns before eating. Gentle brushing and rinsing with warm salt water can keep the area clean.

To maintain your results, schedule regular checkups every six months. Good oral hygiene and routine cleanings help extend the life of your restorations and keep your smile strong and healthy for years to come.

I really enjoyed getting my teeth cleaned today, as Dr B explained everything she was doing and that she could help me with my dentures as they didn’t fit.
