When something goes wrong with a tooth — decay, a crack, infection, or loss — the quality and cost of your restorative care depends significantly on how much can be handled in-house versus referred out. At Thrive Dental & Orthodontics in Dallas, we perform the majority of restorative procedures in-house at our office on the corner of Frankford and Preston Road. We use the Medit intraoral scanner for all procedures requiring a model of your teeth — no impressions, no putty, no gagging. Same-day temporary crowns and bridges so you leave your preparation appointment with a restoration already in place. And your digital X-rays displayed on the TVs in your treatment room so you see exactly what we see and understand your treatment clearly.

When decay is caught early at a dental cleaning and exam, a tooth-colored composite filling is the quickest and most conservative fix. Composite bonds directly to tooth structure, matches your natural color, and requires less removal of healthy tooth than older silver fillings. Most filling appointments take 30–45 minutes with Netflix on the two TVs in your treatment room throughout — comfort headphones, pillow and blanket available.
When a tooth has too much decay for a filling, a significant crack, or needs protection after a root canal, a dental crown restores it fully. We use the Medit intraoral scanner for all crown procedures — no impressions. Same-day temporary crowns are placed before you leave your preparation appointment so your tooth is protected from day one. Permanent crowns are fabricated from premium Emax porcelain for front teeth and Zirconia for back teeth at high-quality partner labs. Full details on our Dallas dental crowns page.
We perform most root canals in-house at our Dallas location — significantly less expensive than specialist endodontist rates and available same day in most cases. Your digital X-rays are shown on the treatment room TV before treatment begins so you see the clinical picture clearly. The nearest pharmacy is just minutes from our Frankford and Preston Road office for any post-procedure prescriptions. Full details on our Dallas root canal page.
When a tooth cannot be saved, extraction is performed in-house with nitrous oxide available for anxious patients. We offer bone grafting at the time of extraction to preserve jaw height and volume during healing — significantly expanding future restoration options. Full details on our Dallas tooth extraction page.
A dental bridge fills the gap left by a missing tooth with a fixed, non-removable restoration. We use the Medit scanner for all bridge fabrication — no impressions — and place same-day temporary bridges so you’re never without a restoration during fabrication. Permanent bridges are fabricated in premium Emax or Zirconia ceramic. Full details on our Dallas dental bridge page.
For patients missing most or all of their teeth, we offer full dentures, partial dentures, and immediate dentures at our Dallas location. Immediate dentures are placed the same day as extractions so patients never go without teeth during healing.
Most restorative problems begin with untreated gum disease. Restorative work placed on a foundation of unhealthy gum tissue won’t last — which is why our Dallas team addresses underlying gum health before placing any restoration. Deep dental cleanings and periodontal maintenance are part of our restorative process when needed.
Restorative dentistry at our Dallas office starts with a thorough evaluation — your digital X-rays and intraoral photos displayed on the treatment room TV before any discussion begins. You see exactly what we see. From there we build a treatment plan in priority order: what needs attention now for health and pain reasons, what should be addressed soon, and what can be safely monitored.
We provide a complete cost breakdown before any treatment begins — what your insurance covers, your out-of-pocket estimate, and what payment options are available. No surprises, no pressure. For patients who need significant work across multiple teeth, we phase treatment over time — managing both the clinical sequence and the financial reality of larger restorative cases.
For patients returning after a long gap in dental care, the approach is the same as always: honest assessment, clear priorities, no judgment.
Restorative appointments are often longer than routine visits — which is exactly why we’ve invested in the treatment environment at our Dallas office. Every operatory has two TVs — one above the chair and one at eye level — with Netflix throughout. Comfort headphones in every room. A pillow and blanket when you want them. A warm towel at the end of every procedure.
Nitrous oxide is available for patients who need extra support during extractions, root canals, or more involved procedures. Local anesthetic is thorough and complete before any work begins — we check in throughout and add more immediately if needed.
Our chandelier lobby has complimentary coffee, tea, and water for family members waiting during longer restorative appointments. And your digital X-rays on the treatment room TV at every appointment mean you’re never in the dark about what’s happening or why.
The nearest pharmacy is just minutes from our Frankford and Preston Road office for any prescriptions needed after restorative procedures.
Most dental insurance plans cover restorative procedures at 50–80% after the deductible. Fillings typically fall at the basic restorative tier — 70–80% coverage. Crowns, root canals, and bridges are usually major restorative — 50–70% coverage. Dentures vary by plan.
Our team verifies your specific benefits before treatment begins and provides a written estimate of your out-of-pocket before anything starts. We accept 18+ PPO plans at our Dallas location. FSA and HSA payment is accepted. Cherry financing spreads larger restorative costs into flexible monthly installments. Our Healthy Smiles Discount Plan at $89/year provides discounted rates on all restorative services — $49/year for each additional family member. Visit our insurance page for the full carrier list.
Restorative dentistry repairs or replaces damaged, decayed, or missing teeth — restoring function, structural integrity, and health. Cosmetic dentistry focuses on improving appearance. Many procedures serve both purposes. At our Dallas office, cosmetic dentistry and restorative care are both available under the same roof — so a plan addressing both goals is completely seamless to coordinate
