Reconstructive Dentistry: Restoring Function, Health, and Beauty to Your Smile in the Upper East Side

Do you have multiple or complex dental issues that require comprehensive care? At Dental Partners of Fifth Avenue, located in the Upper East Side, New York City, our skilled team of general dentists and specialists offers advanced reconstructive dentistry services. Led by Drs. Gross and Kaplan, and collaborating with our in-house periodontist, endodontist, and ceramist, we develop personalized treatment plans to address significant structural damage, missing teeth, and functional problems, ultimately restoring your mouth to optimal health and aesthetics.

What is Reconstructive Dentistry?

Reconstructive dentistry is a specialized field of dentistry focused on rebuilding and restoring the function and appearance of your mouth when teeth are damaged, missing, or have significant structural issues. It goes beyond basic restorative work by addressing complex problems that affect your bite, chewing ability, and overall oral health. Our approach in NYC seamlessly blends restorative and cosmetic dentistry, combining the science of functional rehabilitation with the art of creating a beautiful, natural-looking smile.

During a thorough consultation, our experienced dentists will assess your individual situation and determine if reconstructive dentistry is the most appropriate path to achieving your oral health goals.

How Does Reconstructive Dentistry Work?

Reconstructive dentistry involves a comprehensive and carefully planned approach, often utilizing a combination of different restorative and cosmetic procedures. The process typically includes:

  1. Comprehensive Consultation: A detailed evaluation of your oral health, including your dental history, current condition, and treatment goals. This may involve imaging such as X-rays and 3D scans.
  2. Team Collaboration: Our general dentists work closely with our specialists (periodontist, endodontist, ceramist) to develop a unified and customized treatment plan.
  3. Treatment Options: Depending on your specific needs, your reconstructive plan may include one or more of the following:
  4.  
    • Dental Crowns: To repair and protect damaged teeth.
    • Porcelain Veneers: To improve the aesthetic appearance of your smile.
    • Dental Bridge Work: To replace one or more missing teeth.
    • Dental Implant Surgery: A long-lasting solution for replacing missing teeth.
    • Removable Restorations (Dentures and Partial Dentures): To replace missing teeth.
    • Onlays and Inlays: To restore damaged or decayed back teeth.
    •  
  5. Coordinated Treatment: All procedures are carefully scheduled to minimize your time in our office and ensure a smooth and efficient treatment process.
  6. Focus on Function and Aesthetics: Our goal is to restore the proper functioning of your teeth and jaw while simultaneously creating a beautiful and natural-looking smile.
  7. Potential Adjunctive Treatments: In some cases, treatments from other specialties like periodontics (gum health) or orthodontics (teeth alignment) may be integrated for the best possible outcome.
