What Is Restorative Dentistry?
Restorative dentistry is the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of oral diseases to restore a person's mouth to full functionality and aesthetic look.
The most common restorative dentistry includes dental crowns, bridgework, esthetic fillings, dentures, veneers, and more!
Your dentist may suggest a treatment plan to restore teeth that are decayed, chipped, cracked, discolored, or even missing. Teeth that are affected by any of these developmental or trauma-related defects can qualify for restorative care. Several options are available depending on the need, whether it's a filling, crown, implant, or bridge.
Take control of your smile
Dental Fillings
By using tooth-colored, composite resin, we'll fill in chips, cracks, or even severe decay to restore optimal strength and seamless beauty to your smile.
Crowns
A dental crown restores a tooth's shape, size, and strength. It fully encases the visible portion of your tooth or dental implant.
Root Canal
A Root Canal is needed when the tooth nerve or pulp becomes severely infected. The process involves removing the pulp, cleaning the canal, and sealing it to save the tooth.
Dental Implants
Dental implants are designed to provide a foundation for replacement teeth that look, feel and function like natural teeth for those with missing or damaged teeth.
TMJ
The temporomandibular joint disorder is used to describe symptoms related to facial pain, limited jaw movements, chipped or broken teeth clicking or popping in the jaw.
Dentures
Dentures can fit uncomfortably if the jaw has irregularities and lacks the dentures' support. To help your dentures fit more comfortably, you may require denture filing or bone grafts to correct jaw irregularities.
Emergency Care
If you have pain or an emergency, call (509) 960-6020. Every attempt will be made to see you on the same day or promptly.
