Why Patients Choose Dental Solutions for Restorative Dentistry
Restorative dentistry is the work that brings a smile back to full function, and the right practice makes the difference between a quick fix and a lasting one. Three things set our dentist in Warsaw, IN, apart.
Dawson-Trained Precision
Dr. William B. Stofer trained at The Dawson Academy, one of the most prestigious continuing-education institutions in dentistry. That training shapes every crown, bridge, filling, and full-mouth reconstruction case at our Warsaw practice, with a focus on long-term function.
3D-Guided Implant Planning
A Vatech Green X scanner maps the jaw before any dental implant is placed. The scan supports precise placement and helps us answer candidacy questions even for patients with significant bone loss. We have the very first machine installed at a dental practice.
Comfort-First Sedation Options
Many restorative patients have been avoiding dental care because of anxiety. We offer oral conscious, nitrous oxide, and IV sedation so the procedure that fixes the smile feels easier than the wait that delayed it.
Restorative Dentistry Cost and Financing
Most restorative dentistry is considered medically necessary, so insurance plans typically provide coverage. Cosmetic-only treatments like veneers and Invisalign are the exception. Our Warsaw team files claims on your behalf to help you maximize your benefits and walks you through every out-of-pocket cost before treatment begins.
To cover out-of-pocket costs, Dental Solutions accepts Cherry® and CareCredit® financing with low-interest and interest-free options depending on your credit profile. We also offer in-house financing so you can spread payments across a comfortable timeline.
Restorative Procedures We Offer
Dr. William B. Stofer and Dr. Brock Spangle handle the full range of restorative work from a single Warsaw office, so the same team you trust for one procedure carries through to the next.
Dental Implants
Titanium posts placed in the jawbone replace tooth roots and provide a stable foundation for crowns, bridges, or dentures. Implants are the gold standard for replacing missing teeth and protecting long-term jaw health.
Dental Crowns
Crowns rebuild a weakened, cracked, or aesthetically flawed tooth, restoring full chewing function and a natural-looking smile. They sit on top of a natural tooth or anchor to an implant.
Dental Bridges
A bridge replaces multiple neighboring missing teeth with porcelain restorations supported by your natural teeth or by implants. Traditional bridges are an affordable, durable answer when implants are not the right fit.
Dentures
Traditional, partial, and implant-supported dentures replace missing teeth across an entire arch. Modern materials and digital planning let our dentures feel and look like your own teeth.
Tooth-Colored Fillings
Composite fillings restore teeth compromised by minor cavities or decay. The composite is color-matched to your natural teeth, so the fix strengthens the tooth without changing how it looks.
Bone Graft
Patients who lack the bone density for traditional implants can often qualify after a bone graft. The procedure builds up bone volume so implants can be placed at a future appointment.
Root Canals
When an infection reaches the inside of a tooth, root canal treatment clears the infection, seals the tooth, and caps it with a crown for protection. The treatment saves the tooth and stops the pain.

The Benefits of Timely Restorative Care
Restorative dentistry pays back the investment in three concrete ways for Warsaw patients.
Preserve Oral Health
Routine restorative care protects natural teeth from decay, infection, and the cascade of more costly problems that follow when small issues are left untreated.
Relieve Dental Pain
Cavities, cracks, chips, and infections can all cause real pain and make eating and speaking difficult. Restorative treatment relieves the pain and returns the tooth to full function.
Boost Confidence
Restoring damaged or missing teeth lets you smile, eat, and speak without the self-consciousness that dental concerns often bring with them.
Nervous About Dental Care? We Offer Sedation
Restorative work is often sought out by the patients who have been putting off dental care for years because of anxiety. Our Warsaw practice offers three sedation options so the visit is comfortable from the moment you sit down.
Oral conscious sedation, nitrous oxide, and IV sedation are each available depending on your medical history, the procedure, and how deeply you want to relax. Your treatment coordinator matches the right option to your needs at consultation.
"Helps me keep my dental health in check."
"Always enjoy coming to the dentist and Abby taking care of me. She's very knowledgeable and helps me keep my dental health in check."

Common Questions About Restorative Dentistry
What is the difference between restorative and cosmetic dentistry?
Restorative dentistry maintains or improves dental health and function. Cosmetic dentistry focuses on appearance through elective procedures like veneers, teeth whitening, and Invisalign. Many restorative treatments deliver cosmetic benefits as well, but health and function are the primary goal.
Will my insurance cover restorative dentistry?
Most restorative work is considered medically necessary and is at least partially covered by dental insurance. Our Warsaw team files claims on your behalf and walks you through your coverage and any out-of-pocket cost before treatment begins.
How long do restorative procedures take?
Timelines vary by procedure. A composite filling can usually be placed in a single visit. Crowns, bridges, implants, and dentures involve preparation, lab work, and placement, so plan for multiple visits across several weeks.
Can I receive sedation during my restorative procedure?
Yes. Dental Solutions offers oral conscious, nitrous oxide, and IV sedation. Your dentist will recommend the right level of sedation based on the procedure and your concerns.
How do I know if I need restorative dentistry?
If you have a missing tooth, persistent tooth pain, a cracked or damaged tooth, or have been told you are losing bone in the jaw, restorative dentistry can help. A consultation with Dr. Stofer or Dr. Spangle can confirm what your needs are and lay out the options.
