Restorative dental care renews the form and function of the smile. If you have damaged teeth, weakened tooth enamel, or missing teeth, we will recommend restorative dentistry services in our Dallas, TX, office. Restorative care can create a more even smile, add structure to the tooth enamel, and even address bite problems like TMD. Our office also provides general dental services to new and existing patients.
Restorative Dentistry in Dallas, TX
Our restorative treatments can restore the function and health of your smile. Restorative dental care can include these treatments:
Dental Crown
A dental crown protects weakened and damaged teeth. We use porcelain crowns that we color-match to the shape and shade of natural teeth. Crowns act like caps to protect teeth, secure bridges, and cover dental implants.
Dental Implants
Implants are lasting restorations made of titanium metal. We place dental implants in the jawbone to replace teeth at the root. One or more dental implants can secure dental crowns, bridges, and dentures.
TMJ Nightguard
A night guard, or occlusal guard, is a retainer fabricated by the lab to fit perfectly to your upper teeth. This device is becoming increasingly common, as many people clench or grind their teeth at night, during stressful or focused periods, or even when working out.
The hard retainer not only helps protect your teeth from wearing down and cracking over time, but it also extends the life of your existing fillings and crowns, as you protect the edges of the fillings or porcelain from wearing thin. They can also provide relief from tight jaws and facial muscles.
Dental Bridges
A dental bridge is a natural-looking dental appliance that can replace a section of missing teeth as an alternative to implants. It is two crowns on either side of a space, with a fake tooth in the middle. Because they are custom-made, bridges are barely noticeable and can restore the natural contour of teeth and the proper bite relationship between upper and lower teeth.
Complete and Partial Dentures
Full and partial dentures are removable appliances that can replace missing arches or missing sections of teeth. They are custom-made and fitted properly to not only esthetically restore your smile but also to function with eating, speaking, and the anatomical profile of the face.
