Restorative Dentistry in Fairfax, VA
One doctor, one plan for every tooth that needs work
200+ 5-star patient reviews
Metropolitan Dental Centre offers restorative dentistry in Fairfax, VA, including crowns, bridges, dentures, and implants. Dr. Caitlin Hulver creates personalized plans at our fee-for-service practice, now accepting new patients.
You've probably fixed this tooth before. Let's plan the whole mouth.
One filling, one crown, and one patch at a time can leave you chasing the same problems. Dr. Hulver looks at the whole mouth first, then recommends the smallest amount of dentistry that gets your teeth working again. She doesn't treat a tooth in isolation from the bite around it.
Our patients get three things from that approach:
90 minutes with Dr. Hulver: every new patient gets a dedicated 90-minute visit with her, including photos and x-rays reviewed on screen in plain language.
200+ 5-star reviews: patients describe the care in their own words further down this page.
3 financing options: CareCredit, Cherry, and Proceed Finance are all available, and the team files insurance claims for you.
Dr. Hulver's clinical focus includes dental implants, cosmetic dentistry, laser dentistry, and comprehensive dentistry. Read more about Dr. Caitlin Hulver and her training.
Restorative treatments at Metropolitan Dental Centre
Dental Crowns
A dental crown is a cap that protects a damaged or weakened tooth and restores it to full function. Dr. Hulver offers porcelain and zirconia crowns that look natural next to your other teeth.
Dental Bridges
A dental bridge replaces one or more missing teeth and keeps your bite stable. It also stops the shifting that often follows tooth loss.
Dentures
Dentures replace missing teeth with a removable set that fits your mouth. We take the time to fit them properly so you can eat and smile with confidence again.
Dental Implants
A dental implant is a replacement root that holds a new tooth in your jaw. Implants are one of Dr. Hulver's clinical focus areas, and she talks through whether an implant, a bridge, or a denture fits your mouth before you decide.
Fillings and Full-Mouth Plans
Dr. Hulver places fillings during general dentistry visits when a tooth needs a small repair. When several teeth need attention, our Full-Mouth Rehabilitation work treats them as one connected plan, with function first and beauty always.
What happens at your first restorative visit
Your first visit is a dedicated 90-minute appointment with Dr. Hulver, so you won't feel rushed. Here's how the 90-minute new patient visit works:
Interview
Dr. Hulver asks about your dental history, your goals, and your past dental experiences.
Assessment
She reviews your photos and x-rays with you on screen, in plain language.
Cleaning
The hygienist cleans your teeth the same day when scheduling allows.
Next steps
You leave with clear recommendations before you walk out.
Restorative dentistry cost, insurance, and financing in Fairfax
Metropolitan Dental Centre is a fee-for-service practice, which means Dr. Hulver recommends the care that's right for you, not what an insurance plan will approve. We file claims on your behalf, and many out-of-network plans still offer reimbursement.
You can pay by cash, check, or credit card. Financing runs through CareCredit, Cherry, and Proceed Finance. Our VIP Membership is an in-house plan with preventive care and meaningful savings on treatment, without the limitations of traditional insurance.
