we can help restore your smile

Restorative dental treatment refers to procedures that aim to restore the function and appearance of damaged or missing teeth. These treatments can include fillings, crowns, bridges, and dental implants, which are designed to repair or replace teeth that have been affected by decay, injury, or natural wear and tear. Restorative dental treatment is essential for maintaining good oral health and preventing further damage to teeth, as well as restoring a patient's ability to speak and eat comfortably. By addressing dental issues early on with restorative treatments, patients can avoid more serious dental problems down the line and enjoy a healthier, more confident smile.

what to expect at your first appointment

  • Comprehensive Exam

    Your dentist will examine your x-rays, and will complete a chairside examination with you. They take the time to look thoroughly at your teeth, gums, and the surrounding tissues. They will discuss any conditions present at that time, using the x-rays and real-time photos or video to show you what may need attention.

  • We Provide options & Alternatives

    Your dentist will review the recommended treatment for any conditions that may be present, as well as provide alternative options. We understand that every patient situation is different, and we aim to provide the best options for you and your specific treatment outcome goals.

  • personalized treatment plan

    After discussing treatment recommendations and options, your dentist and yourself will decide what route to take, and plan accordingly. No matter what your timeline or your budget is, we are here to get you healthy!

  • Follow Up Appointment

    Sometimes patients come to their initial appointment with an urgent dental need that would be best treated at this same visit. We do everything we can to accommodate our patients if the schedule allows for both the office and patient. For non-emergency treatment that is needed, we will simply schedule you after your initial exam and cleaning at a time that is convenient for you.

treatment options

Restorative

  • Dental fillings are the restoration of choice for small to moderate cavities. The diseased part of the tooth is removed and an aesthetic dental composite is placed to make your tooth whole again.

  • Dental crowns are the restoration of choice for teeth with large cavities, cracks or breakages, and back teeth that have had a root canal. The broken or diseased part of the tooth is removed and repaired, and the tooth is reinforced with a custom-made tooth shaped cap.

  • A bridge is a tooth replacement option that uses crowns on the adjacent teeth to support an artificial tooth in between.

  • We provide simple root canal treatments and refer our more complex cases to one of our trusted root-canal specialists.

  • For teeth that have broken or decayed beyond repair, we can remove the tooth and help you decide which tooth-replacement option is best for you.

  • Dentures can help you continue to function and provide an aesthetic solution when all, or some, of your teeth are lost. Traditional dentures and partial dentures are removable. Snap-on full dentures are an excellent option for many patients who have lost their teeth - ask us if you are a candidate!

  • An implant is a permanent tooth-replacement option which functions very similar to a real tooth. In many cases, implants are the gold-standard to replace missing teeth.

  • We want to help make you comfortable. A problem-focused exam and x-rays will help us determine the best treatment for your urgent dental needs.
