Restorative Dentistry

Missing teeth can affect more than just your appearance — they can impact your confidence, your bite, and your overall oral health. Implant crowns and bridges are a long-lasting solution that look, feel, and function just like natural teeth. By filling in the gaps, they help restore balance to your bite, prevent shifting of surrounding teeth, and support the structure of your face. Whether you’re missing one tooth or several, dental implants can give you back a strong, healthy, and confident smile you’ll be proud to show off.

A crown is a type of dental restoration that covers or "caps" a damaged tooth. It's like putting a protective shell over a tooth that’s been weakened by decay, a large filling, or a crack. It’s designed to fit perfectly over the tooth and can be made from materials like porcelain, ceramic, or metal.

A bridge is used to replace one or more missing teeth. It works by anchoring a false tooth (or teeth) in the gap where the missing tooth used to be. The false tooth is held in place by crowns on the teeth next to the gap. This "bridges" the space, restores your bite, and improves the look of your smile.

Both crowns and bridges are fixed in place, meaning they are cemented onto your teeth and are not removable like dentures. They help restore function, making it easier to chew and speak, while also protecting your remaining teeth. With the advents in dental technology we can now eliminate the traditional impressions with the "goopey" material and scan digitally your mouth in office to assure the best precision fit for years to come.

Full Dentures restore function and aesthetics when no natural teeth are left. They provide full arch support for chewing and speaking but rely solely on the gums for stability. Without tooth anchorage the stability of dentures is sometimes compromised without dental implant support.

Partial Dentures are a restorative option for when some natural teeth are still healthy. They not only restore missing teeth but also help prevent the remaining teeth from shifting. Since partials are supported by both your natural teeth and the gums, they tend to offer more stability than full dentures.

Fillings and sealants are common dental treatments used to protect and restore teeth. Fillings are used to repair cavities or damaged teeth by filling the affected area with a durable material, such as composite resin or amalgam, to restore the tooth's structure and function. Sealants, on the other hand, are a preventive measure, involving the application of a thin, protective coating to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth, creating a barrier that helps prevent cavities by keeping out food particles and bacteria.

Or full mouth rehab for short is a comprehensive dental treatment plan designed to restore the health, function, and aesthetics of your entire mouth. This process involves a combination of dental procedures, such as crowns, bridges, veneers, implants, and sometimes orthodontics, to address issues like damaged or missing teeth, bite problems, and gum disease. Full mouth rehab is personalized to each patient, ensuring that their smile is fully restored to optimal condition, improving not just appearance but also overall oral health and quality of life.

An overdenture or overpartial is a type of denture that securely attaches to implants or your remaining natural teeth. Unlike traditional dentures that just sit on your gums, these are “snapped in” for extra stability and comfort.

Think of it as a removable denture with a strong foundation. It doesn’t wobble when you talk or eat, and it’s easier to keep clean. If you’ve struggled with loose dentures or are missing several teeth, this may be the perfect upgrade.

Benefits of Overdentures & Over Partials:

More Secure Fit: They won’t shift or pop out while eating or talking.

Improved Chewing Power: Enjoy a wider variety of foods again.

Better Speech: Speak clearly and confidently.

Preserve Jawbone & Facial Structure: Implants help prevent bone loss that makes your face look sunken over time.

Comfortable & Natural-Looking: Designed to feel and look like real teeth.

Hybrid Dentures (Teeth That Don’t Come Out)

Hybrid dentures are permanent teeth secured to implants — no glue, no slipping, and no taking them out at night. They’re often called “teeth in a day” because you can leave surgery with a full, fixed smile.

Compared to snap-on overdentures, hybrids stay in place and feel more like natural teeth. If you’re ready for a secure, long-term solution, hybrid dentures are the gold standard.
