Restorative Care at Our Norwood Office

Teeth wear down. They crack, and sometimes they have to come out. Restorative dentistry deals with all of it, from a filling placed in a single visit to implant treatment planned over several months.

Preservation is key. Keep what nature gave us, and enhance and fix only what is needed.Dr. Monika Kaceli

In practice, Dr. Kaceli looks for the smallest repair that will hold up. A tooth that can be saved usually is, and when one can't be, you will hear about every replacement option before choosing.

Ways to Replace Missing Teeth in Norwood

If you have lost one tooth or several, there is more than one way forward. A bridge uses the teeth beside the gap for support. A partial or full denture replaces several teeth at once. A dental implant replaces the root as well as the part of the tooth you see.

Implants also make combined options possible. Our Norwood office offers implant-retained crowns for a single tooth, implant-retained bridges for several teeth in a row, and implant-supported dentures that are held in place by implants instead of resting only on the gums.

Planning With CBCT 3D Imaging

The Norwood office has CBCT 3D cone-beam imaging. The scanner rotates around your head for about 30 seconds during a regular visit and gives Dr. Kaceli a 360-degree view of your teeth and jaw. For implant cases, that view helps with planning and placement accuracy.

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, tell us before any imaging. Parents should also talk with Dr. Kaceli before a child has a 3D scan.

Comfort and Scheduling for Longer Visits

Some restorative appointments run longer than a cleaning. Every treatment room in our Norwood office has a flat-screen TV, and sedation is available for patients who feel anxious. Ask which option fits your treatment.

We see patients the third Friday and third Saturday of each month, which helps if you can't take a weekday off for a longer appointment. Call (781) 762-6688 to find a time that works.

Why Choose Kaceli Dental Studio in Norwood?

Norwood is where Dr. Kaceli opened her first practice, after spending time in the town and falling for its people. Patients come to us from Norwood, Westwood, Dover and Needham.

Periodontist Dr. Milagros Serrano, DDS, is part of our team. Her focus includes dental implants, bone augmentation and soft tissue grafting, so the gum and bone work some restorations need first can be handled within the practice. Financing through Cherry and Sunbit is available, and you can complete our new patient forms online before your first visit.

Frequently Asked Questions About Restorative Dentistry

Which restorative treatments do you offer in Norwood?
Tooth-colored fillings, crowns, bridges, full and partial dentures, and dental implants. We also offer implant-retained crowns, implant-retained bridges and implant-supported dentures.
Is an implant always the best way to replace a tooth?
Not always. The right choice depends on your bone, your gum health, the teeth next to the gap, your timeline and your budget. For some patients a bridge or denture is the better fit. Read more about dental implants in Norwood.
Can I be sedated for restorative work?
Most restorative treatment is done with local anesthetic. Sedation is also available, and the Norwood office offers nitrous oxide and oral conscious sedation for procedures such as extractions. Tell us if you feel nervous and Dr. Kaceli will talk through what suits your visit.
Why would I need a 3D scan?
A CBCT scan shows bone and structures that a flat X-ray can't. It is most often used when planning dental implants. Dr. Kaceli will only recommend one when it helps with your treatment.
Can you replace my old silver fillings?
Yes. Many patients choose to replace old silver fillings because of how they look or because they have started to wear out. Dr. Kaceli will check them and advise whether replacing them makes sense. See our page on tooth-colored fillings.
