Do you know what happens if you don’t take good care of your teeth? If you haven’t established an oral care routine and don’t visit your dentist regularly, sooner or later you’ll find yourself paying for restorative dentistry in Marco Island.Preventive dental care is the secret to a healthy mouth! But thankfully, even if you learn this too late, restorative dental care can still save you. Your dentist is patiently waiting to bring your smile back to life. What type of dental care do you need?

If a tooth is severely decayed, normally your dentist will suggest a filling. Unfortunately, if the decay is so bad that a filling won’t be enough, your dentist will recommend root canal treatment to save your tooth.A root canal is a procedure where your dentist removes the decayed and infected pulp within your tooth’s chamber, empties and disinfects the chamber, and then fills it up with a rubber compound known as gutta-percha. This is followed by the addition of an inlay or onlay. Lastly, a dental crown is placed to restore the integrity, strength, and appearance of your tooth.
Veneers are also part of restorative dentistry. These are thin, semi-transparent shells that are made from porcelain. It’s an ideal procedure for patients with chipped, discolored, crooked, broken teeth.The beautiful thing about veneers is you can see instant results on your second visit. Not only will it improve your smile but it will also enhance your self-esteem. When properly cared for, porcelain veneers can last up to eight to 10 years.
