What is Restorative Dentistry?
Simply put, restorative dentistry is used, as the name suggests, to restore function to your teeth, Dr. Carson’s goal is to preserve as much of your natural teeth as possible in the process. Because this is a broad subject, many dental procedures may fall into the category of restorative dentistry.

- fillings
- veneers

If you have dental health issues that are impacting your abilities by limiting your chewing ability or making it difficult to speak clearly, you may have need for restorative dentistry.
