Restorative Dentistry in Denver CO

At K2 Dentistry, we take pride in helping our patients have a beautiful, healthy smile they can be proud of.

What is Restorative Dentistry?

Restorative dental treatments focus on restoring decayed, damaged, or missing teeth to maintain proper function and oral health. Restorative dentistry aims to restore function, while cosmetic dentistry aims to improve visual appearance.

Restorative dentistry can treat several conditions, including:

Tooth Decay
Missing teeth
Broken or damaged teeth

Benefits of Restorative Dental Care

When your teeth become damaged, it can affect your ability to bite, chew, or speak properly. In addition to enhancing the appearance of your smile, restorative dentistry can:

Improve functionality for eating and speaking
Distribute the force of your bite, helping you avoid jaw pain
Protect your teeth from shifting into gaps left by missing teeth, protecting your facial appearance
Keep your bite properly aligned for better biting and chewing

At K2 Dentistry, we provide restorative dental services in Denver, CO.

Fillings: Dental fillings are typically used to fill a cavity caused by tooth decay. Fillings are also used to repair cracked or broken teeth and teeth that have been worn down from misuse. Fillings can be made from several materials, such as gold and amalgam, but the most popular are porcelain and composite resin because they are tooth-colored.
Crowns: Dental crowns are tooth-shaped “caps” that can be placed over your tooth to restore the tooth’s shape, size, strength, and appearance. Crowns can be used for several reasons, such as to protect a weak tooth, repair broken or severely worn-down teeth, or hold a dental bridge in place. Your crown will be tooth-colored to blend in and appear just like one of your natural teeth. Dental crowns are an excellent long-term option because they are durable and usually last 10 to 15 years.
Bridges: If you have missing teeth, Dr. Duraiz can close the gaps in your smile with dental bridges. A bridge is typically made of crowns on either side of the missing tooth or teeth supporting the false tooth and is cemented in place. Bridges help your bite, restore your ability to chew and speak, prevent remaining teeth from moving out of place, and restore your smile. The bridge may last more than ten years with good oral hygiene and regular professional cleaning.
Dental implant restorations: Dental implants are used to replace missing teeth. An implant is a titanium metal screw that replaces a tooth root and anchors for artificial (fake) teeth such as dentures, dental bridges, or crowns. Dental implant restorations can improve your appearance, speech, and chewing ability.

How to Care for Teeth Restorations

Dental restorations can significantly improve your smile, but they require proper aftercare to succeed long-term. These three tips will help you improve your oral health and increase the lifespan of your dental restorations:

Brush at least twice a day for two minutes to prevent plaque buildup. Floss at least once a day to clear tight spaces of debris and buildup, and use a fluoride mouthwash to rinse your mouth.
Visit the dentist for a checkup at least every six months. At these checkup appointments, we look for signs of developing complications. Catching problems early on is the best way to prevent more complex issues from developing.
Avoid chewing ice, biting fingernails, grinding teeth, or biting non-food objects.

Tooth Restoration Cost

Tooth restoration costs vary based upon the type of procedures you’re getting, but insurance typically covers the cost of restorative dentistry services.
