Complete Solutions for Damaged or Missing Teeth

Fillings

Repair cavities using durable tooth-colored composite materials that blend naturally with your smile.

After Tooth Damage

Broken, cracked, or worn teeth can often be repaired with crowns or other restorative treatments that strengthen the remaining tooth.

Replacing missing teeth helps preserve jawbone health, maintain bite alignment, and improve chewing ability.

Long-Term Oral Health

Frequently Asked Questions

What is restorative dentistry?

Restorative dentistry focuses on repairing damaged, decayed, or missing teeth to restore your oral health, comfort, and ability to chew and speak normally. Depending on your needs, treatment may include fillings, dental crowns, root canal therapy, dental implants, bridges, or tooth replacement solutions.

Can restorative dentistry save a damaged tooth?

In many cases, yes. Whenever possible, Dr. Rubio’s goal is to preserve your natural tooth using treatments such as dental fillings, crowns, or root canal therapy. If a tooth cannot be saved, replacement options like dental implants may be recommended to restore your smile.

What is the difference between restorative and cosmetic dentistry?

Restorative dentistry repairs and rebuilds damaged teeth to restore normal function and oral health. Cosmetic dentistry mainly enhances the look of your teeth and smile, focusing on aesthetics rather than function.

How do I know if I need restorative treatment?

You may benefit from restorative dentistry if you have a toothache, cracked or broken teeth, cavities, worn teeth, missing teeth, difficulty chewing, or old dental work that is failing. A comprehensive dental exam allows Dr. Garrett Rubio to recommend the most appropriate treatment for your smile.

Is restorative dentistry covered by dental insurance?

Many restorative procedures are partially covered by dental insurance when deemed medically necessary. Coverage varies by plan, and our team is happy to verify your benefits and explain any out-of-pocket costs before treatment begins.
