Keep your smile feeling and functioning at its absolute best with restorative dentistry. From simple procedures like dental fillings, to more complex solutions like dental prosthetics and root canal therapy, restorative dentistry aims to revitalize decayed or damaged teeth. With our comprehensive restorative care, you can take back your overall oral health so you can eat, laugh, and smile with confidence.
Restorative dentistry is more than just repairing teeth – it’s about rebuilding your confidence and ensuring your long-term oral health. At Enso Dental Arts, Dr. Hiruma and her team combine advanced techniques with a compassionate approach to help you regain a fully functional and radiant smile. From dental implants to crowns and bridges, our personalized treatments are designed to meet your unique needs and provide lasting results.
Whether you’re dealing with cavities, missing teeth, or dental trauma, restorative treatments are designed to address any of your issues comprehensively.
By repairing or replacing teeth, these solutions not only improve your bite and oral comfort but also boost your confidence to smile freely. Some of the treatments that Enso Dental Arts provides include:
Cavities are one of the most common forms of oral damage, so it’s imperative we tackle them as soon as they begin so they do not compromise the health and wellness of your teeth. When left untreated, cavities can cause serious discomfort and may require more invasive procedures to alleviate. Thanks to dental fillings, your dentist in Albertson can halt the progression of tooth decay in a single visit. By stopping by for your regular 6-month cleaning and checkup, you can prevent new cavities from forming in the first place.
Dental crowns can help revive your smile if you are struggling with cracked or broken teeth. These tooth-shaped caps serve as a protective layer for the natural root of your tooth while enhancing your bite’s functionality. If you have undergone a root canal or dental implant procedure, a crown can also improve the health of your tooth. With the option to choose from a range of materials, crowns are suitable for both restorative and cosmetic purposes, allowing you to smile with ease and confidence.
Toothaches can be a sign of a serious infection and cause significant discomfort. Fortunately, root canal therapy offers a solution to provide the relief you need and restore the health of your tooth. During a root canal procedure, the infected pulp of the tooth is removed, and the area is thoroughly cleaned and disinfected. Once the tooth has been properly treated, it can be restored with a filling or a dental crown to help maintain its structure.
Not only can root canal therapy alleviate the pain caused by the infection, but it can also prevent the need for a tooth extraction. By saving your natural tooth, you can smile with confidence and avoid more extensive and costly dental work down the line.
Dental extractions are always our last option – saving your smile is our number one priority. However, a problematic tooth can sometimes cause more trouble than it’s worth. Enso Dental Arts may recommend an extraction as the best way to get your oral health back on the right path. With gentle techniques and local anesthesia or sedation, decaying teeth can be removed to alleviate your discomfort or to make room for dental implants, a bridge, or another type of tooth replacement.
If you’re faced with the need for a tooth extraction or if you’re already missing a tooth, remember you’ve got plenty of options for a replacement. One top choice is dental implants. These do more than just fill in your smile – they also restore the strength of your bite and promote the overall health of your mouth. The best part? Dental implants are not only long-lasting and secure but can also slow, or even halt, bone loss by imitating the shape and function of your natural tooth roots.
There’s no need to keep covering up your mouth if a missing tooth is leaving a gap in your smile. With a dental bridge, the space left behind by one or several missing teeth can be permanently covered. The bridge is attached to your teeth on either side of the gap, so it won’t slide around when you eat or speak. Your bridge also won’t stand out from the rest of your smile – it can be color-matched to blend with your other teeth. Keep your teeth from shifting and reduce the risk of bone loss and problems with your bite by asking Dr. Hiruma and her team about a bridge.
Dentures are a removable, affordable solution that can complete your smile after missing one or all of your natural teeth. To ensure a natural look and feel, most dentures are made of a combination of acrylic and metal and are custom-crafted for a comfortable fit. Looking to see if dentures are right for you? Schedule a consultation to find out if a set of full or partial dentures can restore your bite.
After your dental implant has been affixed, your dentist will make the finishing touches by adding an implant crown! Dental crowns act as tooth “caps” that are fitted onto the implant. Your dentist will ensure the size and color of your implant crown matches with the rest of your other teeth, so you can have a seamless new smile.
If you’re missing a few teeth and are looking for a replacement option, Valplast dentures can complete your smile for a natural look. While traditional dentures often have a ridged, bulky feel, Valplast dentures are made from a flexible plastic material. This allows the denture to fit neatly into your mouth and blend in seamlessly with the rest of your smile.

Restorative dentistry focuses on repairing damaged teeth and restoring proper oral function, while cosmetic dentistry primarily aims to enhance the appearance of your smile. However, there’s significant overlap between these fields. Many of our restorative procedures have cosmetic benefits, and we approach all restorations with an artistic eye to ensure they’re both functional and aesthetically pleasing. For example, while a crown is primarily restorative (replacing damaged tooth structure), we ensure its color, shape, and size harmonize with your natural teeth.
The timeline for restorative procedures at Enso Dental Art varies depending on the treatment:
During your consultation at our Albertson office, we’ll provide a detailed timeline for your specific treatment plan.
At Enso Dental Art, patient comfort is our priority. We use local anesthesia for restorative procedures to ensure you don’t feel pain during treatment. For more complex procedures or patients with dental anxiety, we offer additional sedation options. Most patients experience minimal discomfort after procedures like fillings or crown preparations, which typically resolves within a few days and can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers. More extensive procedures like root canals or implant placement may cause more pronounced discomfort during recovery, but we provide detailed aftercare instructions and are always available to address any concerns during your healing process.
Restorative dentistry benefits patients of all ages who have:
Our Albertson team takes a comprehensive approach, considering both immediate concerns and long-term oral health when recommending restorative treatments.
The longevity of restorative treatments depends on several factors, including the type of restoration, materials used, your oral hygiene practices, and lifestyle habits. With proper care:
At Enso Dental Art, we use high-quality materials and precise techniques to maximize the lifespan of your restorations. Regular check-ups at our office allow us to monitor your restorative work and address any issues before they compromise longevity.
Absolutely! At Enso Dental Art, we approach restorative dentistry with an artistic perspective, ensuring that functional repairs also enhance your smile’s appearance. When we restore damaged or missing teeth, we carefully consider color matching, natural tooth morphology, and how restorations will harmonize with your facial features. Modern materials like tooth-colored composites and ceramic crowns allow us to create restorations that are virtually indistinguishable from natural teeth. Many patients at our Albertson practice are pleasantly surprised by how much their smile improves after necessary restorative work, often achieving cosmetic improvements without additional cosmetic procedures.
At our Albertson, NY location, the crown process typically involves two appointments:
Between appointments (usually 1-2 weeks), our dental lab creates your custom crown to our exact specifications, ensuring it matches your natural teeth and fits perfectly.
You might benefit from restorative dentistry if you experience:
During your comprehensive examination, we use advanced diagnostic tools including digital X-rays to identify problems that might not be visible or symptomatic yet. Early intervention often allows for more conservative and less expensive treatment options.
