Restorative Dentistry
Teeth are a critical component of your overall health and happiness. Many people enjoy smiling when their teeth look their best. At the same time, damaged teeth can cause discomfort and pain, besides impacting your enthusiasm to smile. Our Choo Choo City Dentistry team can help with the correct restorative dentistry treatments to put your oral health and smile aesthetics back on track.
What Is Restorative Dentistry?
Restorative dentistry comprises dental solutions that repair or replace teeth and reinstate the function and appearance of your teeth. Services may include fillings, dental crowns, bridges, dental implants, or even dentures. Regardless of your dental issue, our dentist, Dr. Quinn, will help plan a customized treatment plan that will work for you.
Restorative Dentistry Services
- Dental Fillings
Teeth can develop holes on their surface when attacked by decay. Dental fillings can fill in the hole after the decay is cleaned out. Regular dental checkups can identify the decay before it advances further. Today’s dental fillings are composed of composite resin materials that match your natural tooth.
- Dental Crowns
Crowns are tooth-shaped devices that shield a tooth with profound decay or other issues like a crack, chip, or fracture. They help reinstate the appearance and function of an impaired tooth. In addition, the crowns can conceal misshapen teeth or cover a dental implant.
- Dental Bridge
A dental bridge may be the apt solution when you miss one or more teeth. They consist of prosthetic teeth to replace the missing ones and then crowns at both ends to support the false teeth. They are a durable solution to fix missing teeth and are more economical than dental implants.
- Dentures & Partials
Patients missing many teeth can significantly benefit from dentures. They are prosthetic teeth attached to a plastic base that resembles your gum tissue. Dentures can restore your ability to eat, speak, and smile with absolute confidence by filling in the gaps left by your missing teeth. Dentures also prevent the neighboring teeth from shifting out of position. Our team can help you enjoy all of the benefits of a comfortable, natural-looking denture.
- Dental Implant Restorations
Dental implant restorations help replace the missing tooth gap permanently. The implant comprises a titanium screw that is surgically placed in the missing tooth socket and acts as a tooth root. In due course, the implant fuses with surrounding bone providing a solid base for the dental crown. A connector piece called the abutment is then placed to secure the dental crown.
- Dental Flippers
Flippers can help restore one or more missing teeth, just like a temporary partial denture. It fills up the gap left by the missing teeth until a more permanent replacement is placed.
