Restorative dentistry is designed to repair, rebuild and rejuvenate teeth that have been compromised by decay, injury or tooth loss. Whether you are dealing with a single damaged tooth or require full-mouth rehabilitation, restorative care helps bring back both form and function to your smile.
Your Path to a Healthier Smile
When teeth are damaged or missing, it affects more than just how your smile looks. It can impact your bite, your ability to eat and speak comfortably and even your long-term oral health. Dr. Rebecca Hausten and Dr. Rachael Cole take a comprehensive approach to restorative dentistry, beginning with a thorough evaluation of your dental health. We will listen to your concerns, review your treatment options and create a personalized plan to restore your smile.

Each treatment is carefully tailored to your unique situation, with the goal of restoring both health and confidence.
Protecting & Preserving Your Natural Teeth
Our philosophy is to preserve your natural teeth whenever possible. Conservative treatments such as fillings and inlays or onlays help restore damaged teeth without removing more structure than necessary. Early intervention is key, and we are here to help you stay ahead of potential issues with modern, minimally invasive techniques.
Long-Term Benefits of Restorative Dentistry
Beyond the immediate improvements in appearance and comfort, restorative dentistry plays an essential role in your long-term health. Properly aligned and functioning teeth reduce strain on your jaw, support a healthy bite and help maintain the natural structure of your face. Restorative care can also prevent additional dental problems from developing down the road.

Frequently Asked Questions About Restorative Dentistry
What is the difference between restorative and cosmetic dentistry?
Restorative dentistry focuses on repairing the structure and function of your teeth, while cosmetic dentistry enhances their appearance. Although some treatments overlap, restorative care aims to resolve health-related concerns such as decay, fractures or tooth loss, whereas cosmetic procedures are typically elective and centered on aesthetic improvements.
How long do most restorative treatments last?
The longevity of restorative treatments depends on the material used, the procedure and your oral hygiene habits. Fillings and crowns may last 10 to 15 years or longer with proper care. Regular dental visits and good at-home practices can significantly extend the life of your restorations.
Is restorative dentistry covered by dental insurance?
Many restorative procedures are considered medically necessary and are often at least partially covered by dental insurance. Coverage can vary depending on your specific plan and provider. Our team is happy to help you navigate your benefits and provide estimates before treatment begins.
Can restorative dentistry help with tooth sensitivity?
Yes, restorative dentistry can address the underlying causes of tooth sensitivity, such as worn enamel, cavities or exposed roots. Treatments like dental bonding, fillings or crowns can protect sensitive areas and provide long-term relief, allowing you to eat and drink more comfortably.
