There is a difference between ‘restitution’ and ‘restoration’.
‘Restoration‘ is the process of bringing an object back to its original state; the process of restoring something while ‘restitution‘ is (legal) a process of compensation for losses.

Another example of use: The man who injured my dog with his car tried to give me restitution by paying the veterinarian’s bill.
