RESTORATIVE DENTISTRY

Saving a natural tooth is often preferred when possible. Treatments like crowns or root canal therapy can restore function and relieve pain. However, if a tooth is severely damaged or infected, extraction may be the healthier choice. We’ll explain your options clearly so you can make an informed decision.

Modern dental crowns are designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. We match the shape, size, and color carefully so your restoration looks natural and feels comfortable when you smile or speak.

A dental implant replaces a missing tooth by anchoring directly into the jawbone. A dental bridge relies on neighboring teeth for support. Implants help preserve bone and don’t require altering adjacent teeth. Bridges may be a good option in some cases, and we’ll help you compare benefits during your visit.

Dental implants have a high success rate, but as with any procedure, there are risks. These may include infection, implant failure, or healing issues, especially if gum disease or certain health conditions are present. We carefully evaluate your oral and overall health to minimize risks and ensure implant treatment is appropriate.

Dental implants are designed to be a long-term solution. With proper care, the implant post itself can last decades or even a lifetime. The crown attached to the implant may need to be replaced over time due to normal wear. However, routine checkups and good oral hygiene can help extend its lifespan.

You may need restorative treatment if you’re experiencing tooth pain, difficulty chewing, sensitivity, or have visible damage such as cracks, large fillings, or missing teeth. Even if discomfort is mild, these issues can worsen over time. A dental exam allows us to identify the cause and recommend the right solution.
