You have always taken very good care of your teeth and gums. Every morning and every night, you brush and floss. You schedule twice yearly dental checkups at Hill Avenue Dental in Superior, WI, so we can help you have a healthy smile. Yet despite all of this good care, you now find yourself needing to “fix a problem.” Whether you need to rebuild a tooth that has decay or replace a tooth that has been knocked out, Dr. Doug Clark, Jr. and Dr. Doug Clark III have the restorative dentistry treatment to rejuvenate your smile.
Perhaps the most frequently performed restorative treatment in dentistry is repairing a cavity with a filling. At Hill Avenue Dental, our dentists use tooth-colored composite resin materials when filling a cavity. This material offers several advantages. First and most obvious is that the filling blends in seamlessly with the color of your natural teeth; no one will see a darker spot in your smile. Secondly, a filling with composite resin necessitates less tooth preparation, which means that more of your tooth’s original structure is preserved. Once restored, your tooth will be as strong as one of your natural teeth.
Restoration for Missing Teeth
Whether you have missing teeth because of severe tooth decay, advanced gum disease or a traumatic injury, replacing those teeth is imperative for your oral health as well as your general health. Dental implants are the only tooth replacement that restore a tooth from root to crown. With minor oral surgery, one of our dentists implants a titanium post in your jaw. This acts similarly to the root of a tooth, anchoring the restorative crown and stimulating bone tissue, so there is no loss of bone density or sagging facial muscles.
