What Is Teeth Restoration?

Teeth restoration refers to a variety of dental procedures that restore the appearance, strength, and function of damaged, decayed, or missing teeth. From minor fillings to complete tooth replacements, restorative dentistry helps maintain oral health and prevent further complications.

Common Causes That Lead to Teeth Restoration Procedures

You might need teeth restoration if you have:

Tooth decay or cavities
Cracked, chipped, or broken teeth
Excessive wear from grinding or acidic erosion
Teeth weakened by large fillings or previous dental work
Missing teeth due to trauma, infection, or extraction
Previous root canal treatment

Benefits of Restorative Dentistry

Restoring your teeth isn’t just about appearance; it’s about preserving your health, comfort, and quality of life! Benefits include:

Improved chewing and speaking ability
Protection against further tooth damage
Restored confidence in your smile
Balanced bite and jaw alignment
Long-lasting results with modern materials

Our Teeth Restoration Services

At By The Lake Dental, we proudly offer a full range of restorative dental treatments using high-quality, natural-looking materials. Here’s a look at our most popular options:

Tooth-colored composite restorations

Gone are the days when tooth trauma and cavities could only be treated with unsightly metal fillings. Today, modern, tooth-colored fillings made of durable resin can be bonded to your teeth for a stronger, more natural-looking effect. Composite fillings are virtually undetectable and require only a single appointment to apply.

Porcelain Inlays/Onlays

Porcelain inlays and onlays are a very aesthetic alternatives to composite fillings. They have a high degree of strength, and as such, are excellent for restoring weakened back teeth. Inlays and onlays protect and restore large portions of decayed, heavily restored tooth, or teeth under very heavy load (i.e. back teeth). Unlike crowns, they only cover a portion of the tooth, and are therefore more conservative on the amount of tooth preparation required.

Porcelain inlays and onlays are made from the same strong, tooth colored material that is used for crowns and bridgework. A customized shade makes them virtually undetectable. The main differences between tooth-colored composite restoration and inlay/onlays is that the latter are fabricated using a laboratory process and differing materials, thereby making them stronger and more durable.

Crowns

Crowns are a type of dental restoration which, when cemented into place, fully covers that portion of a tooth which lies at and above the gum line. In comparison, composite fillings/inlays/onlays are dental restorations that are used to fill in or cover over just a portion of a tooth. Since dental crowns encase the entire visible aspect of a tooth, a dental crown in effect becomes the tooth's new outer surface.

Crowns are used to rebuild broken or decayed teeth, to strengthen teeth, and as a means by which to enhance the cosmetic appearance of teeth. Dental crowns are often referred to as "dental caps".

Bridges

If you are missing teeth and having trouble speaking or chewing, or are noticing strain when biting, bridges may be the ideal procedure to help make your mouth healthy and beautiful again. Bridges literally “bridge” gaps between teeth by filling them with strong, natural-looking artificial teeth. Bridges are semi-permanent (they can only be removed by a dentist) and are comfortable and proven to strengthen teeth.

"I visited this Dental Office for a broken molar. The visit was amazing. The work was very well-done, painless, and fast! They really spoke to me gently, and were very understanding about my tooth. It was all fixed up, and wow! What a great result. I am smiling again!"
