Cracked, Chipped, or Worn Teeth? We Fix That
Life happens. Maybe you bit down on something hard or grind your teeth in your sleep. Cracks and chips don’t just affect how your smile looks—they can also lead to pain or infection. The dentist repairs these issues using high-quality materials that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.
Restorative Dentistry in Pulaski: What It Covers
Our restorative treatments rebuild damaged or missing teeth’s look, strength, and function. They include various procedures to address everything from simple cavities to full-mouth reconstruction.
- Tooth-colored fillings
- Dental crowns and bridges
- Dental implants
- Dentures and partials
- Root canal therapy
- Full-mouth restorations
Fillings That Look Like Real Teeth
The dentist uses composite resin for fillings that match your natural tooth shade—the material bonds to your enamel, creating a tight seal that stops decay from spreading. Unlike silver fillings, these restorations blend in and support the tooth’s structure.
When a Crown Is the Right Call
Crowns protect a weak or broken tooth when a filling won’t work. The dentist preps the tooth and places a custom crown that restores shape and function. Crowns also top off implants or anchor bridges when replacing missing teeth.
Replace One or More Teeth with Bridges
A bridge may be the answer if you’re missing one or more teeth in a row. The dentist places crowns on healthy teeth on either side and connects them with artificial teeth. This restores your bite, improves your smile, and prevents teeth from shifting out of place.
Dental Implants for Long-Term Tooth Replacement
Implants replace both the root and the visible part of a missing tooth. The dentist surgically places a titanium post into the jaw, then tops it with a crown once healed. Implants provide stability, prevent bone loss, and feel like natural teeth.
Dentures That Fit and Stay Put
Dentures replace multiple or all missing teeth. Whether full or partial, the dentist designs dentures to fit comfortably and look natural. Today’s dentures stay secure, let you eat better, and support your facial shape.
Root Canals Without the Stress
Infected or severely decayed teeth can cause intense pain. A root canal lets the dentist remove the infection and save the tooth. We use precise techniques to clean, seal, and restore the tooth with a crown so it functions like normal.
Signs You May Need Restorative Dental Work
Some problems hide beneath the surface, while others appear more obvious. You should consider restorative treatment if you notice:
- Tooth pain or sensitivity
- Cracks, chips, or discoloration
- Loose or missing teeth
- Old fillings that have worn down
- Swelling or tenderness around the gums
What to Expect at Your Visit
The dentist will begin with a full exam and digital X-rays to assess your needs. Then we discuss treatment options and map out a step-by-step plan. We walk you through every step so you always know what’s happening next.
