Restorative dentistry focuses on repairing damage to your oral health. Whether it’s an untreated cavity, a tooth infection, or one or more missing teeth, Dr. Jack Swartout and the team at our office are here to help you get your smile back. With restorative dentistry in Brownsburg from our team, you can get out of pain, prevent further complications, and restore the appearance of your smile after tooth loss or damage.
Dental fillings are the best way to treat cavities. In the filling process, Dr. Swartout will clean up your tooth, remove decayed material, and fill your tooth with an inert metal or tooth-colored composite substance. This filling replaces the damaged material, restores your tooth’s appearance and integrity, and prevents further complications, such as tooth infections.

Root canal therapy is needed to treat infected teeth. Teeth become infected when the delicate “pulp” inside your tooth becomes exposed to oral bacteria. This can happen due to an untreated cavity that eats away at your tooth, or due to oral trauma like breaking a tooth in an accident.
In root canal treatment, Dr. Swartout will clean out the inside of your tooth, fill it, and then cap it with a dental crown. This removes the source of the infection and protects your tooth. You’ll be able to get out of pain, and keep your tooth for years to come.

A dental crown is a hollow false tooth crafted from tooth-like porcelain materials. Dental crowns are designed to completely cover up damaged teeth and protect them, so they're a great option if you have a large cavity, after root canal therapy, or to repair broken and damaged teeth.

Dental bridges use two dental crowns that attach to healthy teeth on either side of a gap in your smile that’s caused by a missing tooth. Between these crowns, one or more false teeth (pontics) are suspended. This “bridges” the gap, and replaces the missing teeth. Bridges are often used to replace one or two adjacent missing teeth.
We offer both partial and full dentures at Swartout Dental. Partial dentures consist of a metal-and-wire prosthetic that contains one or multiple false teeth. These dentures snap onto your remaining healthy teeth to hold your false teeth in place.
Full dentures are a bit different. They replace the upper, lower, or both rows of teeth. Full dentures require the removal of any remaining teeth, so they are only recommended if you have extensive oral health issues.
Is Restorative Dentistry Covered By Insurance?
Yes. In most cases, restorative dentistry is covered by insurance up to your policy’s applicable limits. However, every insurer and every policy is different. If you’re not sure what your insurance company will cover, we recommend consulting with them directly, or checking your policy for details about covered restorative dentistry procedures.
