Restorative
A dental restoration or dental filling is a dental restorative material used to restore the integrity, function and morphology of missing tooth structure. The structural loss typically results from caries (tooth decay or cavities) or external trauma. It is also lost intentionally during tooth preparation to improve aesthetics or the physical integrity of the intended restorative material. Our dentists and technicians at Cedar Pearl strive to provide you the best in care and functionality for your teeth.
Dental restorations are classified by their location and size. If required, a root canal filling is a restorative technique used to fill the space where the dental pulp normally resides.
