Teeth are remarkable structures made of enamel, dentin, and pulp—yet they aren’t invincible. When bacterial plaque creates cavities or damage, general restoration procedures can rebuild and protect your teeth. At Dr. Vidya Varathan Dental Care, we emphasize preventive measures to catch early decay, helping you avoid extractions and maintain a healthy, natural smile.
Identifying tooth decay in its early stages often means simpler treatments, like a small filling. Delaying care may lead to deeper damage, potentially requiring extractions or more extensive procedures. Our team is dedicated to regular check-ups and patient education so you can recognize problems early and preserve your teeth whenever possible.
We tailor our recommendations to the extent of your tooth decay. Fillings can address minor cavities, while crowns provide a protective “cap” for teeth with larger restorations or compromised enamel. If decay reaches the tooth’s nerve, a root canal can save the tooth from extraction and restore its function.
General restoration encompasses more than just patching up small cavities. Our practice also offers bridges to replace missing teeth and ensure your bite remains balanced. We believe in open communication, so you’ll always know your treatment options and feel confident about the path we choose together.
