The basics

What Is Restorative Dentistry?

Restorative dentistry focuses on repairing or replacing damaged, decayed, or missing teeth to restore normal function and appearance. Unlike purely cosmetic procedures, restorative work addresses structural problems that affect your ability to eat, speak, and maintain oral health.

At Pines True Smile, restorative dentistry in Pembroke Pines covers everything from tooth-colored fillings and crowns to bridges, root canals, dentures, and dental implants — so most patients never need a referral for routine restorative work.

Filling or crown?

When Does a Tooth Need a Crown vs. a Filling?

The right restoration depends on how much healthy tooth structure remains.

OptionWhen it is usually recommended
FillingDecay involves less than half of the tooth, and the tooth is otherwise intact and structurally sound.
CrownDecay or damage involves more than half of the tooth, after a root canal, a cracked tooth at risk of fracturing, or a large failing old filling.
Inlay / onlayAn in-between option when decay is too large for a filling but a full crown would remove too much healthy tooth.
Dr. Kamran Kiani, DDS, dentist at Pines True Smile in Pembroke Pines
“Restorative dentistry is about giving teeth a second chance. Whether it is a simple filling or a full-mouth rebuild, our goal is always to preserve as much natural tooth as possible while restoring full function and confidence.”

Why Early Treatment Saves You Money

A small cavity treated with a $150–$300 filling today can become a $1,500 crown or a $1,000+ root canal if it is left untreated for 6–12 months. Untreated infections can spread to neighboring teeth and require multiple treatments.

Early intervention is always the most cost-effective choice — and it preserves more of your natural tooth structure.

FAQ

Restorative Dentistry in Pembroke Pines: FAQ

Straight answers to the questions we hear most. Don't see yours? Our team is happy to help.

Call (954) 703-2474
How long does a dental crown last?
A porcelain or zirconia crown typically lasts 10–20 years with proper care. Zirconia is very durable and often recommended for back teeth. Regular brushing, flossing, and 6-month check-ups extend crown lifespan. Night grinding significantly shortens crown life, so a nightguard is recommended for grinders.
Is a root canal painful?
Modern root canal therapy is no more uncomfortable than getting a filling. The area is fully numbed before Dr. Kiani begins, and the procedure relieves the throbbing pain caused by an infected tooth nerve. Mild soreness for 24–48 hours afterward is normal and managed with over-the-counter pain relievers.
How long does a root canal take?
A front tooth root canal takes about 45–60 minutes, and a molar takes about 60–90 minutes because of more complex root anatomy. Most root canals at Pines True Smile are completed in a single visit, with a permanent crown placed 1–2 weeks later.
Can a cracked tooth be saved?
It depends on the crack location and depth. A crack confined to the crown portion can often be saved with a crown, while a crack extending below the gum line or into the root typically requires extraction. The sooner a cracked tooth is treated, the better the outcome.
Does insurance cover dental crowns?
Most PPO plans classify crowns as major restorative and cover about 50% after the deductible. Some plans require a waiting period or documentation that a filling is not viable. Pines True Smile runs a pre-authorization check to confirm coverage before beginning crown treatment.
