Restorative Dentistry in Louisville

Cavities are common, but that doesn't mean they should go overlooked. They can cause discomfort and pain, leaving you unable to enjoy the foods you love. When left untreated, cavities only become worse and may require more invasive procedures to alleviate. Fortunately, dental fillings can repair and stop the progression of tooth decay in a single visit. And by returning to the dentist every six months for regular cleanings and checkups, you can prevent new cavities from forming altogether!

Restore your cracked and damaged teeth with dental crowns, which are tooth-shaped "caps" that protect your tooth's natural root and revitalize the function of your bite. As one of the most versatile restorative dental procedures, dental crowns can also be used to cover up a tooth after receiving a root canal or to cap a dental implant. Since dental crowns can be made from many materials, they are ideal for a variety of restorative and cosmetic applications, so you can smile with confidence.

If a missing tooth is leaving a gap in your smile, a partial denture isn't your only option! A dental bridge can cover the space left behind by one, or several, missing teeth. It's permanently attached to your teeth on either side of the gap, so it won't slide around when you eat or speak. Plus, your bridge can be color-matched to blend seamlessly with the rest of your grin. Dental bridges can help keep your teeth from shifting, reducing the risk of bone loss and problems with your bite. Schedule a consultation today to see if a dental bridge can help you complete your smile!

If you're missing one or all of your natural teeth, dentures are a removable, affordable solution that can complete your grin and restore your confidence. Most dentures are made of a combination of acrylic and metal and are custom-crafted for a comfortable fit and natural look. Schedule a consultation to find out if a set of full or partial dentures can restore your bite so you can get back to living your life with a smile.

Dental implants can be a bit of a confusing procedure. That's because it comes in two parts: the implant and the dental crown. The main thing to remember is that one cannot go without the other. Implants are needed to replace a tooth's root, while dental crowns, bridges, or dentures replace the part you can actually see (your smile). To restore your smile to its full potential and beauty, implant restorations are essential. You deserve to have a set of teeth that you feel comfortable in and we are experts in keeping you smiling for decades to come.
