Restorative Dentistry
When general dental maintenance fails and dental problems ensue, it’s time to turn to restorative procedures to restore teeth to health. Some restorative procedures keep teeth from having to be extracted altogether. Other procedures are necessary to replace teeth that have already been extracted. Crowns and veneers are one of the main treatment options for people that have a tooth that is damaged or discolored. A crown or veneer is a tooth colored device that slips over a damaged tooth and looks just like a healthy tooth. Our dentist in Brentwood recommends this treatment in many instances. It’s simple and very effective.
For people that have already lost teeth, dental bridges, implants or dentures are all good treatment options. Dentures can be full or partial. Full dentures replace a mouth full of missing teeth with fully functioning, beautifully realistic teeth that allow a person to eat and speak normally again. Dentures are one of our most popular requests and our Brentwood restorative dentist finds it very rewarding to help people get the most realistic, fine-fitting dentures available in modern dentistry. Implants are another popular replacement device. Our dentist is highly skilled at doing dental implant procedures so that patients walk out of the office with super-strong new implants that look and work just like real teeth. It’s not even possible to tell the difference between an implant and a real tooth.
If your teeth are damaged by diseases, due to a trauma or any other reason, contact our Brentwood restorative dentist. Our dentist will be able to repair any damage, or replace a badly damaged tooth.
Brentwood Restorative Dentist
When possible our restorative dentist in Brentwood will attempt to save a tooth through a procedure called a root canal. During the procedure, our dentist will thoroughly clean out the inside of the tooth, removing the pulp, deadening the nerve, and sealing the tooth at the end of the procedure so that no more bacteria can enter the canal. This means that a person is able to keep their tooth, remain infection free, and never experience pain in the tooth again.
No matter how well teeth are taken care of, things can go wrong. When that happens, you can always turn to our office for help. Our Brentwood dentist will evaluate your teeth, take X-rays, and discuss the best treatment options for you.
Our restorative dentist in Brentwood focuses on bringing the teeth and gums back to complete health and making sure they are immune to further damage.
