What is Restorative Dentistry?
Rebuilding the Health and Beauty of Your Smile
Restorative dentistry is the art and science of rebuilding a smile that has lost strength, comfort, or confidence. By repairing or replacing damaged teeth with ceramic or traditional crowns, dental bridges, dental fillings, inlays/onlays, dentures & partials, extractions, and soft-tissue grafting, it restores dependable chewing function and a natural look, often in fewer appointments than patients expect.
At Fortson Dentistry in Lathrup Village, MI, we design every restorative plan around your goals, budget, and timetable. Using advanced imaging, precise digital workflows, and high-quality materials, we blend technical skill with an eye for aesthetics so your repaired teeth feel seamless and look genuine, letting you enjoy meals, conversations, and photos without a second thought.
