restorative Dentistry

As the name suggests, restorative dentistry is an area of dentistry that’s focused on restoring the health of your mouth. Primarily, this type of dental care involves repairing decayed, damaged, or infected teeth. As a conservative dentist, Dr. Mistry is always looking for ways to repair your natural teeth, rather than pulling them and replacing them.
‍
However, tooth replacement is also a major part of restorative dentistry. Whether your tooth is unhealthy and needs to be pulled, or you’ve already lost one or more teeth, Dr. Mistry can help you explore your options for replacing your missing tooth.

We offer a full suite of restorative dental treatments at Brightside Family Dental. This includes dental fillings, dental crowns, and root canals for damaged, decayed, and infected teeth. We also provide tooth extractions, and tooth replacements with dentures, dental bridges, and dental implants.
‍
Whether you’ve got a single decayed or infected tooth, or you have serious oral health problems and need full mouth rehabilitation, Dr. Mistry is here to help. And at Brightside Family Dental, we offer expert care in a judgment-free environment. Our only goals are to restore your smile, eliminate your pain, and get your oral health back on track.

Yes. When medically necessary, most restorative dentistry procedures are covered by insurance. However, coverage for these procedures can vary depending on your policy. For this reason, it’s a good idea to consult with your insurer to learn more about your coverage limits. 
‍
We work with most insurances at Brightside Family Dental, including GEHA, Cigna, Delta Dental, BlueCross BlueShield, MetLife, and more. If you don’t have insurance, we also offer an in-house membership that gives you 10% off any needed restorative treatment.

Restorative treatment doesn’t hurt. And in fact, getting restorative treatment can provide you with relief from your pain. For example, if you have a toothache due to a tooth infection, getting root canal therapy and a dental crown will eliminate the infection and your toothache, too. 
‍
We’re dedicated to your comfort at our office, too. Dr. Mistry provides gentle care, and he will numb your mouth thoroughly to make sure that you don’t feel any pain during your procedure. We also offer sedation dentistry in Chapel Hill. Whether you have dental anxiety, you’re nervous, or you’re just looking to relax during your appointment, sedation at Brightside Family Dental can help.
