A Quick Rundown On Restorations

Restorative dentistry provides patients with a way to regain oral health, while making repairs to physical damage. Without it, you would only have the option to avoid problems (with preventive care) or to suffer from oral health that continues to decline once a concern arises. Fortunately, we offer a variety of restorations that we can quickly employ to stop an oral disease or disorder, restore your daily function, improve your comfort, and bring you back to the initial state of oral health you once enjoyed.

Available Restorative Treatments

  • Dental Fillings. You will need a dental filling if you suffer from tooth decay. Why? Ignoring the problem may lead to breakage or infection. A filling will remove the decayed tissue, fill the opening, and restore your tooth.
  • Dental Crowns. Perhaps your tooth is extremely weak or you just received a root canal treatment. For teeth that need extra support or full coverage, we offer a hollow, artificial tooth called a dental crown.
  • Dental Bridge. Patients missing one tooth or up to three teeth in their mouth (teeth that rest side-by-side) may turn to a bridge to complete their smiles. This fixed prosthetic is composed of a series of dental crowns and pontics color-matched to your surrounding teeth.
  • Dentures. Whether you are missing all of your teeth or have suffered severe tooth loss, we offer dentures – removable prosthetics – to quickly and effectively restore your ability to chew, speak, and feel proud of your smile.
  • Root Canal Therapy. Root canal therapy removes damaged, infected tooth tissue and saves your tooth.
  • Tooth Extraction. Sometimes, restorative treatments cannot effectively save your tooth. Fortunately, we can remove the tooth with a tooth extraction, which creates a clean foundation for a beautiful replacement.
  • Dental Implants. About those open spaces in your smile – a dental implant will replace an entire tooth. You see, the implant restores your tooth’s roots. Once your tissues heal, the implant will then support a dental crown. Or, you can replace multiple teeth by choosing other implant-retained prosthetics, such as dentures.
