Restorative Dentistry in Framingham, MA

Renew your smile and oral function by repairing and replacing damaged or missing teeth.

Why Restorative Dentistry Matters

Over time, decay, trauma, or wear can damage teeth, affecting chewing, speech, and overall oral health. Restorative dentistry restores tooth structure, protects surrounding tissues, and helps prevent further damage.

At Atlantis Dental, we aim to combine function and aesthetics — repairing your smile in a way that looks natural and lasts long.

What Restorative Dentistry Services We Offer

Here’s a closer look at the restorative dental treatments available at our Framingham office:

Dental Fillings

Our office uses strong, tooth-colored materials to restore teeth affected by decay or damage. Dental fillings help:

Seal cavities to prevent further decay
Restore the natural shape and function of your tooth
Provide a durable, long-lasting solution
Blend seamlessly with your existing smile

Dental Crowns

For teeth that are broken, weakened, or have large fillings, crowns offer complete protection. With dental crowns, we:

Cover and strengthen the entire visible portion of the tooth
Protect the tooth from fracture or further damage
Restore proper bite and function
Use natural-looking materials for a seamless finish

Bridges

If you’re missing one or more teeth, bridges can fill the gap and restore your smile. Dental bridges:

Replace missing teeth without the need for surgery
Anchor to healthy adjacent teeth for stability
Restore your bite, speech, and facial symmetry
Are custom-designed for comfort and aesthetics

Full & Partial Dentures

For patients missing several or all teeth, dentures provide a functional and aesthetic solution. At Atlantis Dental, our dentures:

Restore your ability to chew and speak comfortably
Support facial muscles to maintain natural appearance
Are custom-crafted for a secure and comfortable fit
Can be designed as full or partial depending on your needs

Home Care Education & Support

You play a vital role in your oral health. We help by:

Teaching proper brushing, flossing, and interdental cleaning
Suggesting the best toothbrushes, floss, picks, water flossers, mouth rinses, etc.
Recommending night guards if you grind or clench your teeth
Advising on nutrition, sugar intake, and acidic foods
Working with you on quitting tobacco or vaping (which greatly harm gums and teeth)

How Often Should You Visit?

Generally healthy patients: Every 6 months (twice per year)
Higher risk patients (history of gum disease, implants, complicated restorations, smoking): Every 3 to 4 months
Post–deep cleaning / periodontal treatment: Maintenance cleanings often every 3 months to prevent relapse

Your dentist will tailor a schedule based on your condition, risk factors, and past dental history.

Frequently Asked
Questions

Restorative Dentistry FAQs — Atlantis Dental, Framingham MA

Do restorations like crowns and fillings last forever?

No — though high-quality restorations can last many years, they may wear or fail over time. Proper care and periodic checks help extend their lifespan.

Is getting a crown painful?

With proper anesthesia, getting a crown is comfortable. You may feel sensitivity afterward, but it should subside; we’ll guide you on how to manage it.

Can a bridge damage adjacent teeth?

No — when done properly, a bridge uses adjacent teeth as support, but careful planning ensures minimal impact. Good oral hygiene helps protect those supporting teeth.

Is it better to replace missing teeth with implants rather than bridges or dentures?

Yes — implants replicate both tooth root and crown, preserving bone and preventing shifting. Bridges and dentures are effective alternatives but may not offer the same long-term benefits.
