Whether you’re dealing with a cracked tooth, missing teeth, or damage from decay, restorative dentistry brings your smile back to full function and health. It’s not just about aesthetics—it’s about helping you eat comfortably, speak clearly, and feel confident again.
At Dentistry on 43, we provide comprehensive restorative care right here in the heart of the Peace Country. From single-tooth solutions like crowns and fillings to complex full-mouth rehabilitation with dental implants, our team has the technology and training to rebuild healthy, lasting smiles.
Restorative dentistry focuses on repairing or replacing damaged, decayed, or missing teeth. The goal is to restore your mouth’s function, health, and appearance using treatments ranging from simple fillings to comprehensive implant-supported restorations.
Unlike cosmetic dentistry (which primarily improves appearance), restorative work addresses underlying structural problems. That said, modern restorative treatments deliver beautiful results too—you don’t have to choose between function and aesthetics. A HEALTHY SMILE IS A HAPPY SMILE.
Ignoring dental damage rarely ends well. A small crack can turn into a broken tooth. A missing molar can cause neighboring teeth to shift. Untreated decay can lead to infection and tooth loss.
Restorative dentistry stops these cascading problems. Early intervention means:
Beyond individual teeth, restorative care protects your overall oral health. Missing teeth affect your bite, jaw alignment, and even bone density. Comprehensive restoration helps prevent these long-term oral and systemic complications, keeping your whole body healthier.
We provide a full range of restorative treatments right here in our office, minimizing out-of-house referrals and keeping your care coordinated.
Dental implants are the gold standard for replacing missing teeth. These titanium posts integrate with your jawbone, providing a permanent foundation for crowns, bridges, or even full-arch restorations. We handle implant placement and restoration right here, giving you seamless care from start to finish.
The process involves surgically placing four implants into the jawbone, which then serve as a strong foundation for a full set of prosthetic teeth.
Dental crowns restore damaged or weakened teeth by covering them completely, protecting what remains while returning full function. Bridges replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring artificial teeth to neighboring natural teeth or implants.
When a tooth has damage too extensive for a filling but not severe enough to require a crown, inlays and onlays offer a conservative solution. These custom restorations fit precisely into or onto the tooth, preserving more natural structure than a full crown.
Sometimes saving a tooth isn’t possible. When extraction is necessary due to severe decay, damage, or overcrowding, we perform tooth extractions with care and precision. We’ll also discuss replacement options to prevent future complications from missing teeth.
Impacted or problematic wisdom teeth can cause pain, infection, and damage to neighboring teeth. Our team performs wisdom teeth removal right here in Beaverlodge, with sedation options available for your comfort.
When infection or deep decay reaches a tooth’s inner pulp, root canal therapy can often save the tooth. Despite their reputation, modern root canals are comfortable procedures that eliminate pain and preserve your natural tooth structure.
Restorative treatment starts with understanding the full picture. We use digital X-rays, intraoral cameras, and thorough examinations to assess not just the obvious problem, but how it affects your overall oral health.
There’s rarely just one way to restore a tooth or replace missing teeth. We’ll discuss all your options, including pros, cons, timeline, and costs, so you can make informed decisions that align with your goals and budget.
Advanced tools make restorative dentistry more precise, comfortable, and predictable. Our digital impressions eliminate goopy molds, and our modern materials create restorations that look natural and last longer.
When your restorative needs intersect with other aspects of dental care—like TMJ treatment, Invisalign, or sedation dentistry—we coordinate everything seamlessly. You won’t get lost in a maze of referrals.
Whenever possible, we aim to preserve your natural tooth structure. Sometimes that means a conservative inlay instead of a crown, or root canal therapy instead of extraction. We only recommend what’s truly necessary.
Consider restorative treatment if you’re experiencing:
Even if you’re not in pain, damaged or missing teeth warrant evaluation. Many serious dental problems develop without obvious symptoms until they’ve progressed significantly.
Restorative dentistry is an investment in your health and quality of life. We work with most dental insurance plans and provide direct billing to maximize your benefits.
For treatment not fully covered by insurance, we offer financing through Lendcare with flexible monthly payments. Our team will provide detailed cost estimates before beginning any treatment, so there are no surprises.
You don’t have to live with damaged, painful, or missing teeth. Modern restorative dentistry offers solutions that look natural, function properly, and last for years.

Real stories from patients who found a happier, healthier smile here at Dentistry on 43.
If you have damaged, decayed, or missing teeth affecting your ability to eat, speak, or smile comfortably, restorative dentistry can help. Common signs include tooth pain, visible damage, difficulty chewing, or self-consciousness about your smile. During your dental exam, we’ll evaluate your oral health and recommend restorative treatment only when it’s truly necessary.
Longevity varies by treatment type and how well you care for your restoration. Dental crowns typically last 10-15 years, dental implants can last a lifetime with proper care, and fillings last 5-10 years depending on size and location. Root canals followed by crowns often preserve teeth permanently. Factors that affect longevity include your oral hygiene habits, regular dental checkups, avoiding habits like teeth grinding or chewing ice, and addressing any issues promptly. Most restorations last longer when you maintain good preventive care.
Modern restorative dentistry is designed to be comfortable. We use effective local anesthesia so you won’t feel pain during procedures, though you may feel some pressure or vibration. For patients with dental anxiety or those undergoing complex treatments, we offer sedation dentistry options ranging from nitrous oxide to IV sedation. After treatment, any discomfort is typically mild and manageable with over-the-counter pain relievers.
Most dental insurance plans cover a portion of restorative treatments, typically 50-80% after your deductible. Coverage varies by plan and by procedure—some treatments like crowns and root canals are usually covered, while others like dental implants may have limited coverage. We work with most insurance providers and offer direct billing to make the process seamless. Our team can verify your specific benefits before treatment and provide a detailed estimate of your out-of-pocket costs. For treatments not fully covered, we offer financing options through Lendcare.
In many cases, yes! Depending on the treatments needed and your comfort level, we can often combine procedures to minimize the number of appointments and recovery periods. For example, we might place multiple crowns in one visit, or perform extractions and discuss implant planning at the same appointment. For extensive restorative work, we’ll create a phased treatment plan that balances efficiency with your comfort and healing needs.
