Restorative Dentistry

Restorative dentistry is the art of re-establishing the health, function, and appearance of your teeth and smile. It involves rebuilding or replacing areas of the mouth that have been damaged by decay, trauma, or disease. In many cases, restoring the smile not only returns it to its natural state but can also improve your original function and appearance.
There are many reasons why restorative dental work might be needed: cavities, tooth decay, broken or fractured teeth, worn enamel, gum disease, or missing teeth. If you’re experiencing discomfort, trouble chewing, or simply feel self-conscious about your smile, restorative dentistry offers a long-lasting solution.
We are proud to provide today’s most innovative and patient-centered restorative services to bring your mouth back to health.
Composite Fillings
Fillings are used to repair decayed or broken tooth structure and restore it to its natural shape and function. We use tooth-colored composite material that is custom-matched to your natural shade—so your restoration blends seamlessly into your smile. It’s not just about appearance: a properly placed filling also ensures your bite feels natural and comfortable.
Our commitment to using the safest and most biocompatible materials reflects our standard of care.
Dental Crowns and Bridges
A dental crown—sometimes called a “cap”—is placed over a tooth to restore its shape, strength, and function. Crowns may be recommended to:
- Restore a broken or worn-down tooth
- Cover and support a tooth with a large filling
- Protect a weak or cracked tooth
- Cover a dental implant
- Improve cosmetic appearance
A dental bridge is used to replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring artificial teeth to the surrounding natural teeth or implants. Bridges restore chewing function, maintain the shape of your face, and help prevent your remaining teeth from shifting out of position.
Root Canal Therapy
At the center of each tooth is the pulp, also known as the nerve. Infection of the nerve can be caused by trauma, deep decay, cracks, chips, or repeated dental procedures. Root canal therapy (RCT) removes the infected pulp, relieves pain, and saves the natural tooth. Some teeth have multiple canals, and we take the time to carefully treat each one with precision and care.
Dentures
Dentures are removable appliances that replace missing teeth and help restore your smile’s appearance and function. Whether you’ve lost teeth due to gum disease, decay, or injury, replacing them benefits both your health and confidence.
We offer a range of options—including full, partial, immediate, and overdentures—and will help you choose what’s best for your unique needs.
Dental Implants
A dental implant is a titanium post that is surgically placed into the jawbone to replace a missing tooth root. Once healed, it is topped with a crown, bridge, or denture to restore full function and aesthetics.
Implants are one of the most durable and natural-looking solutions available. They help preserve bone structure, prevent shifting of nearby teeth, and restore your ability to chew, speak, and smile with confidence.
Extraction
Dental extractions are procedures to remove teeth that are damaged, decayed, or causing other oral health issues. Our standard of care is to remove the tooth/teeth and restore the bone and gum to a healthy state, where the area can be used to help you maintain your smile and your teeth to ideal function.
Full-Mouth Reconstruction
Full-mouth reconstruction combines multiple restorative procedures to rebuild the entire mouth—improving health, function, and appearance. This may involve replacing lost teeth, restoring broken ones, correcting the bite, and realigning the jaw.
This comprehensive approach is ideal for patients with extensive dental needs or those seeking a total transformation. Benefits include:
- Improved chewing and digestion
- Better jaw alignment and facial support
- Clearer speech and stronger bite
- A healthier, more confident smile
