Restorative dentistry focuses on repairing teeth damaged by decay, fracture, wear, or missing tooth structure. The goal is a comfortable, functional, and natural-looking result.
Treatment choices depend on how much healthy tooth remains, the bite, gum support, esthetic goals, and long-term prognosis.
Dao Dental Group serves patients from North Houston, Greenspoint, Imperial Valley, Aldine, Spring, Humble, and nearby Houston 77060 communities.
A crown may be recommended when a tooth has a large cavity, fracture risk, heavy wear, or not enough tooth structure for a filling.
Crowns can last many years, but lifespan depends on bite forces, hygiene, material, diet, and regular dental care.
A bridge may be an option when neighboring teeth can support it. Implants or partial dentures may also be discussed.
