What Is Pediatric Restorative Dentistry?
Restorative dentistry focuses on repairing teeth affected by cavities, injury, or other damage. Depending on your child’s needs, treatment may range from a small filling to a crown or pulp therapy. Our goal is to restore the health and function of the tooth while preserving it whenever possible.
Everything Your Child Needs For Restorative Care
Explore each treatment option to understand how we restore damaged teeth, what your child can expect, and how we help protect their smile.
Tooth-Colored Fillings
Tooth-colored fillings are used to repair small to moderate cavities. Composite material is bonded directly to the tooth and matched to the natural tooth color, providing a durable and esthetic restoration.
Pulp Therapy
When a cavity or injury reaches the inner portion of a tooth, pulp therapy may be needed to preserve the tooth. Depending on the extent of the damage, treatment may involve removing and treating the affected portion of the pulp before the tooth is restored.
Stainless Steel Crowns
Stainless steel crowns provide strong, full-coverage protection for baby teeth with extensive decay or damage. They are also commonly used after pulp therapy and are designed to protect the tooth until it falls out naturally.
Esthetic Crowns
Esthetic crowns provide tooth-colored, full-coverage restoration for teeth with significant decay or damage. Depending on the tooth and your child’s needs, different tooth-colored crown options may be available.
Tooth Extractions
Whenever possible, we aim to preserve your child’s natural teeth. However, an extraction may be recommended when a tooth cannot be restored, is causing infection or other problems, or needs to be removed to allow for proper dental development.
Space Maintainers
When a baby tooth is lost earlier than expected, nearby teeth can begin to shift into the open space. A space maintainer helps hold that space for the developing permanent tooth and may help prevent future crowding or alignment problems.
