Restorative and Implant Dentistry

Restorative dentistry focuses on repairing or replacing teeth that are damaged, heavily filled, or missing. Our goal is to help you chew comfortably, speak clearly, and feel confident about your teeth while respecting the health of the surrounding gums and bone.

Crowns
A crown is a covering that fits over a prepared tooth. It may be recommended when a tooth is cracked, has a large existing filling, or has been treated with root canal therapy. Crowns can help protect the remaining tooth structure and restore shape and function.

Before recommending a crown, we review:

• The amount of healthy tooth remaining

• How you use that tooth when chewing

• Alternative options, if any

Bridges
A bridge can be used to replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring to neighbouring teeth or implants. In some situations, a bridge may be an option if implants are not suitable or if the adjacent teeth would also benefit from crowns. We will discuss how a bridge compares with other options, including removable partial dentures and implants, for your specific case.

Implant Restorations
Dental implants are used to support crowns, bridges, or dentures in areas where teeth are missing. At Kits Dental Group, we can restore implants that have been placed, or work with specialists where coordinated care is needed.

During planning, we address:

• The number and position of missing teeth

• The condition of the surrounding teeth and gums

• How the implant restoration will be cleaned and maintained

Partial and Full Dentures
In some situations, removable partial or complete dentures may be a suitable way to replace multiple missing teeth. We will discuss the fit, function, and maintenance involved, as well as how dentures compare with fixed options in your case.

Closing line
Restorative treatment plans are often built in phases. We will outline the options, explain the pros and cons of each, and help you decide on a sequence that fits your priorities and resources.
