Restorative Services We Offer
From simple fillings to complex full mouth reconstruction, we provide a complete range of restorative treatments.
Dental Crowns
Dental crowns are custom-made caps that cover damaged or weakened teeth, restoring their shape, size, strength, and appearance. They're ideal for teeth with large cavities, cracks, root canal treatment, or severe wear.
Crown Options:
- Ceramic crowns: Natural-looking, tooth-colored restorations that blend seamlessly with your smile
- Gold crowns: Extremely durable and long-lasting, ideal for back molars
Crowns typically last 10-15 years or longer with proper care, making them an excellent long-term investment in your oral health.
Tooth-Colored Fillings
Modern composite resin fillings repair cavities and minor tooth damage with natural-looking results. Unlike old-fashioned silver amalgam fillings, tooth-colored fillings are virtually invisible and bond directly to your tooth structure.
Benefits of composite fillings:
- Mercury-free and biocompatible
- Match the exact shade of your natural teeth
- Preserve more of your natural tooth structure
- Strengthen teeth rather than just filling cavities
- Can repair chips, cracks, and gaps in addition to cavities
Dr. Cannady uses only the highest-quality composite materials that are durable, stain-resistant, and designed to last for many years.
Dental Bridges
A dental bridge is a fixed restoration that replaces one or more missing teeth by bridging the gap between adjacent natural teeth or dental implants. The bridge consists of artificial teeth (pontics) held in place by dental crowns on either side.
Bridges restore your ability to chew and speak properly, prevent remaining teeth from shifting out of position, and maintain your facial structure. They're a durable, natural-looking alternative to removable partial dentures.
Modern bridges are crafted from high-quality porcelain or ceramic materials that match your natural teeth perfectly. With proper care, bridges can last 10-15 years or more.
Full Mouth Reconstruction
For patients with extensive tooth damage, decay, or missing teeth throughout the mouth, full mouth reconstruction provides a comprehensive solution. This customized treatment plan combines multiple restorative procedures to completely rebuild your smile.
Full mouth reconstruction may include dental implants, crowns, bridges, veneers, and other treatments tailored to your specific needs. Dr. Cannady carefully designs each reconstruction to restore optimal function, health, and aesthetics.
Whether you've experienced severe decay, trauma, or years of dental neglect, full mouth reconstruction can transform your oral health and give you a beautiful, functional smile you'll be proud to show off.
Benefits of Restorative Dentistry
Restorative dental treatments provide far-reaching benefits for your oral health, appearance, and quality of life.
Restore Function
Damaged or missing teeth make it difficult to eat, chew, and speak properly. Restorative dentistry returns your mouth to full function, allowing you to enjoy all your favorite foods and communicate clearly.
Prevent Further Damage
Untreated cavities, cracks, and missing teeth lead to more serious problems over time. Restorative treatments stop the progression of damage and protect your remaining natural teeth from harm.
Improve Appearance
Modern restorative dentistry uses natural-looking materials that blend seamlessly with your smile. Crowns, fillings, and bridges are custom-crafted to match your teeth perfectly, enhancing your appearance while restoring function.
Eliminate Pain
Damaged teeth can cause chronic pain, sensitivity, and discomfort. Restorative treatments address the source of pain by repairing the tooth structure, eliminating infections, and protecting exposed nerves.
Boost Confidence
A healthy, complete smile gives you the confidence to eat, speak, laugh, and smile without worry or embarrassment. Restorative dentistry can dramatically improve your self-esteem and quality of life.
Save Money Long-Term
Addressing dental problems early with restorative treatment is much more affordable than waiting until major problems develop. Prevention and early intervention save you time, money, and discomfort down the road.
