RESTORATIVE DENTISTRY
Restorative dentistry is the field of dental care that focuses on repairing and restoring teeth that have been damaged or lost. This can include treatments such as crowns, bridges, dentures, and more! Restorative dentistry can help to improve the function and appearance of your teeth, and it can also help to prevent further damage from occurring.
PORCELAIN CROWNS & BRIDGES
Dental crowns and bridges are two common types of dental restorations used to improve the function and appearance of the smile. A dental crown is a durable cap that is placed over a damaged or decayed tooth to restore its function and appearance. A bridge is a custom-made prosthetic utilized to fill in the gap created by one or more missing teeth in a subsequent section.
FULL & PARTIAL DENTURES
We take a custom approach to denture design and fabrication, working closely with our patients to ensure that the final product fits, looks, and functions exactly as desired. Full dentures are designed to replace all of the missing teeth in the upper or lower arch. Typically, these prosthetics are secured using either suction or dental adhesive. Partial dentures are utilized in cases of one or more missing teeth along the dental arch. These appliances are held in place using metal clasps that clip onto adjacent teeth for support.
INLAYS & ONLAYS
Inlays and onlays are restorations used to repair a tooth following decay formation along the chewing surfaces. Inlays are used to restore the tooth when decay has affected areas between the cusps. These are the deep pits located at the center surface of the tooth. Onlays restore areas of decay that have affected one or more cusps along the tooth surface. These are the raised, pointed areas along the top of the tooth.
FULL-MOUTH RECONSTRUCTION
The goal of full mouth reconstruction is to restore the health and function of the mouth while also creating a natural, complementary appearance. It is typically done over the course of multiple visits and can often require a significant amount of work to complete. The process looks different for every patient and is personalized to fit any particular needs or areas of concern.
