Patient CareWhat is Operative Dentistry? Operative Dentistry is the art and science of the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of defects of the teeth that do not require full coverage restorations for correction. Such treatment should result in the restoration of proper tooth form, function, and esthetics while maintaining the physiologic integrity of the teeth in harmonious relationship with the adjacent hard and soft tissues, all of which should enhance the general health and welfare of the patient. You can learn more about the discipline of Operative Dentistry through the Academy of Operative Dentistry.
