Restorative dentistry is all about restoring your teeth to an improved, functioning state.  It can often be included in the bracket of cosmetic dentistry, but treatment is usually required rather than voluntary and undertaken  for other reasons besides aesthetics.  Patients seek restorative procedures in order to repair damaged decayed or missing teeth. 

Preventing a problem before it starts is much more beneficial than curing it once it becomes intolerable.  In all aspects of your life, from using sunscreen to wearing a seatbelt, prevention should be at the forefront of all potential medical concerns.  At Pennington Dental, we believe this is especially applicable when it comes to dentistry.

Orthodontics is a mode of dentistry that revolves around the straightening of teeth.   The term orthodontics most often brings to mind images of braces or unsightly headgear, but new technology is allowing orthodontic procedures to be more comfortable and much more aesthetically acceptible.
