What is Restorative Dentistry?
Restorative dentistry is the management of oral health problems and restoring the mouth to a functional and esthetic state. The procedures used include fillings, veneers, crowns, bridges, dentures, and dental implants.
Restoring Teeth and Your Smile
A cosmetic dentist like Dr. Smith works in concert with her patients and brings her skills and understanding of esthetics of dentistry to restoration procedures to guarantee beautiful outcomes. Â Employing advanced techniques and biocompatible materials like composite (white) fillings and porcelain veneers and crowns, Dr. Smith carefully assesses the characteristics and needs of each tooth so when the restoration is complete, your smile looks healthy again.
Repairing existing teeth with fillings, veneers, or crowns and replacing missing teeth with an implant, bridge or denture helps promote dental health. Filling in empty spaces in the mouth can help prevent cavities because plaque tends to build up in the gaps. Missing teeth also put stress on your remaining natural teeth because you don’t have properly aligned surface areas on which to chew.
The goal is to preserve natural teeth as much as possible!

Curodont
Curodont is a non-invasive dental treatment used to manage early tooth decay. It contains a biomimetic peptide (P11-4) that penetrates the early cavity and helps regenerate enamel by attracting calcium and phosphate from saliva, allowing the tooth to repair itself naturally—often without drilling or fillings. At Pound Ridge Cosmetic Dentistry, we are committed to always offering the latest non-invasive treatments like Curodont to protect your teeth in the most gentle and advanced way possible.
LANAP (Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure) Osseous Surgery
LANAP (Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure) is an advanced, minimally invasive treatment for gum disease that uses laser technology instead of traditional surgery. Its key benefits include:
- No cutting or stitches - the laser targets infected tissue while preserving healthy gums.
- Faster healing and less discomfort compared to conventional periodontal surgery.
- Reduced bleeding and swelling thanks to the laser's precision.
- Regeneration of gum and bone tissue, helping teeth regain support.
- Lower risk of infection due to the laser's antibacterial effects.
Overall, LANAP offers an effective way to treat gum disease while keeping the procedure gentle, precise, and patient friendly.
