Restorative Dentistry
Restorative dental procedures accomplish three goals: 1) They repair damaged teeth or replace missing ones with
natural, tooth-colored restorations; 2) They return proper function to that area of the mouth; and 3) They improve the aesthetic
appeal of your smile. We offer a full range of treatment options, including:
Dental Crowns
Bridges
Tooth Colored Fillings
Inlays and Onlays
Implant Restoration
Full Mouth Restoration
Dental Crowns
Porcelain dental crowns applied in our office are an excellent way to repair damaged teeth while maintaining
a natural looking appearance. Porcelain crowns - a custom designed cap that is bonded snugly onto the tooth - are identical
to your natural teeth in both color and luster. If you have damaged teeth or old metal-based crowns and would like to learn
more about our porcelain dental crowns, please contact us .
Bridges
If missing teeth or gaps between your teeth make it difficult to chew, or if they leave you feeling awkward
about your appearance, a dental bridge might be just the solution. Dental bridges are composed of natural-looking synthetic
replacements for missing teeth. Almost indistinguishable from natural teeth, the dental bridges we use are composed of tooth-colored
porcelain and attach to crowns or implants. Dental restorations with bridges can restore both a comfortable bite and a beautiful,
full-toothed smile.
Tooth-Colored Fillings
Modern dental materials allow our dentists to repair your cavities with durable, safe, tooth-colored fillings.
These new filling materials are formed from long-lasting, composite resins and plastics and provide for restorations that
are more natural-looking than those of even 10 years ago. To find out more about these resilient and attractive fillings,
contact us today.
Inlays and Onlays
An inlay is the preferred treatment when tooth decay or damage lies within the cusp tips of the tooth. An onlay
is the appropriate remedy if the extent of damage is greater. An onlay repairs damage that is affecting the entire chewing
surface of one or more tooth cusp tips. Inlays and onlays both preserve healthy tooth structure and strength. Depending on
your dental needs, the material for both types of restorations can be either tooth colored or gold.
Implant
Restoration
A dental implant is a metal anchor that is placed into the jawbone. It acts to secure a synthetic tooth or
a set of synthetic teeth. Dental implants are an excellent long-term solution for missing or broken teeth.
Full Mouth Restoration
Sometimes, restoring a full, healthy smile requires a comprehensive approach. This includes considering such
factors as asymmetry, facial architecture, stains, gum and bone structure, lip line, and occlusion. In the case of accidents,
poor overall dental health or less than desirable teeth structure and size, a full mouth restoration might be the best solution.
