Our Restorative Dentistry Services
Fillings
Dental fillings are a common dental procedure used to treat cavities or tooth decay. They involve removing the decayed portion of the tooth and filling the space with a material to restore the tooth’s shape and function. The most common materials used for dental fillings are composite resin (a tooth-colored material), gold, and porcelain. The choice of filling material depends on factors such as the location and extent of the decay, cost, and personal preference.
Extractions
Extractions are always our last option — saving your smile is our number one priority. However, a problematic tooth is sometimes more trouble than it’s worth. Your doctor may recommend an extraction as the best way to get your oral health back on the right path. With gentle techniques, and local anesthesia or sedation, decaying teeth can be removed to alleviate your discomfort or to make room for dental implants, a bridge, or another type of tooth replacement. It can also be done to remove impacted wisdom teeth or to create space for orthodontic treatment.
Dental Implants
Dental implants are artificial tooth roots that are placed into the jawbone to support a replacement tooth or bridge. They are typically made of titanium and are surgically placed into the jawbone. Once the implant is in place, a crown or bridge can be attached to it, providing a natural-looking and functional tooth replacement. Dental implants are a popular option for people who have lost one or more teeth due to injury, decay, or other reasons. They offer a long-lasting solution that can improve both the appearance and function of the mouth.
Dentures
Dentures are a removable, affordable solution that can complete your smile after missing one or all of your natural teeth. To ensure a natural look and feel, most dentures are made of a combination of acrylic and metal and are custom-crafted for a comfortable fit. Looking to see if dentures are right for you? Schedule a consultation to find out if a set of full or partial dentures can restore your bite. It’s about time you got back to living your life with a smile.
Root Canal Therapy
A root canal is a dental procedure that is performed to treat an infected or damaged tooth due to extensive decay or fracture. During a root canal, the dentist removes the infected pulp from the tooth and cleans the inside of the tooth before sealing it with a filling or crown. This procedure is done to save the tooth from extraction and alleviate pain or discomfort.
Dental Crowns
A dental crown, also known as a dental cap, is a type of dental restoration that completely covers a damaged tooth or implant. It is typically made of porcelain, ceramic, or metal and is used to restore the shape, size, strength, and appearance of a tooth. Dental crowns are often recommended for teeth that are severely decayed, cracked, or weakened, or for teeth that have undergone root canal treatment. The procedure involves removing a portion of the tooth’s outer structure to create space for the crown, taking impressions or digital scans of the tooth, and then placing a temporary crown while the permanent crown is being fabricated in a dental laboratory. Once the permanent crown is ready, it is cemented onto the tooth using dental adhesive. Dental crowns can last for many years with proper care and oral hygiene.
