General/Restorative Dentistry

This area of clinical dental practice is concerned with the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of defects. Along with the traditional filling methods to restore teeth, restorative dentistry also uses adhesives and porcelain restorations. Conservative bonded bridges are used to replace one or more teeth. In dental esthetics, treatment options include, but are not limited to, tooth whitening and porcelain veneers to improve both appearance and function.
