What are some examples of restorative dentistry?

Some of the restorative treatments that Dr. Lin and Fantastic Family Dental offer include:

Crowns

A crown is an artificial tooth cap that Dr. Lin permanently bonds to an existing root structure, like a tooth or a dental implant. Your crown covers up all of your tooth above the gumline, where it can protect your tooth, strengthen it, or enhance its appearance.

Bridges

A bridge is a fixed dental prosthetic device that replaces a missing tooth with a pontic (fake tooth) attached to crowns on either side. Dr. Lin seals the crowns to your abutment teeth (the teeth adjacent to your missing teeth), where they hold the pontic in place as it bridges the empty space between your teeth.

Dental implants

Dental implants are a more technologically advanced method for replacing missing teeth. They’re artificial tooth roots that Dr. Lin surgically embeds in your jawbone, where they’re fused with your bone tissue and provide a sturdy support for a crown, bridge, or denture.

White fillings

Fillings are a classic solution for treating cavities caused by tooth decay. The procedure involves drilling out any decay in your tooth, then filling in the resulting hole with a malleable filling material. Fantastic Family Dental uses a filling material that’s the same color as your tooth enamel, enabling Dr. Lin to treat your cavity without compromising the aesthetic appearance of your smile.
