Missing or broken teeth can cause teeth shifting or toothaches while gum disease and other disorders can cause tension headaches and discomfort. Our team will help you restore your dental health with the following services:

Dental Implants

The premier option for tooth replacement, dental implants give patients the opportunity to fully restore their tooth all the way down to the tooth roots. Dental implants require a surgical procedure to place a titanium post underneath your soft tissue.

Once the post has healed, it fuses together with your jawbone and is topped off with a custom dental crown. Patients love dental implants because they require no dietary restrictions and do not compromise their surrounding teeth.

Dental Bridge

Dental bridges are a minimally-invasive procedure used to help fill in the gaps left behind by missing teeth. Bridges use the support of your surrounding remaining teeth to hold a prosthetic tooth in the gap so that your smile is restored aesthetically and functionally without the need for a surgical procedure.

Dental Crown

If your tooth is severely cracked or chipped, a dental crown can be put in its place to protect the foundational core of your tooth. This helps patients avoid the need for tooth extraction.

The dental crown is created custom to your smile to blend in seamlessly with your other teeth. It sits on top of your damaged tooth to protect it from further damage.

Dentures & Partials

For patients looking to replace a full arch of teeth, we offer dentures & partials. Our team will take thorough dental impressions of your soft tissues to ensure a snug fit and comfortable daily wear.

Periodontal Disease Treatment

Gum disease is one of the most common dental concerns we treat in our office. It occurs when plaque and tartar buildup begin eating away at your gum line and cause inflammation and infection.

To combat gum disease, we offer periodontal disease treatment to help rid your gums of excess bacteria and restore your dental health.

FAQs

What is the strongest dental restoration?

Zirconia is the strongest material used for dental restorations. Zirconia is white ceramic, however, it is opaque rather than translucent like your natural tooth enamel.

How long do restored teeth last?

In general dental restorations last anywhere from 10 years to a lifetime. This varies based on the type of restoration, your oral care routine, and your diet. 

When is it too late to replace missing teeth?

It is never too late to replace a missing tooth thanks to modern treatment options. Early treatment is always preferable because the length of time a lost tooth is untreated can have an impact on your appearance and your oral health, however, it is never too late to replace a missing tooth. 

What should you do after a tooth restoration?

After surgery, try rinsing with salt for 24 to 48 hours. This will aid in the healing of the surgical site. After gently cleaning your teeth for a few days, you may resume regular brushing and flossing.

Do you need anesthesia for tooth restoration?

Other than routine cleanings and x-rays, almost every dental procedure is aided by the use of dental anesthesia. Luckily, this means that pain at the dentist is mostly a thing of the past. Anesthesia can be as extensive or as mild as necessary to accommodate the needs of the patient.

What is not included in restorative dental care?

Restorative dentistry involves operations like fillings, bridges, and implants. Restorative dentistry does not apply to procedures that are regarded as cosmetic, such as porcelain veneers, teeth whitening, tooth bonding, etc.
