It’s never too late to restore optimal dental health. Compass Dental Group has experienced, compassionate dentists who help patients of all ages address their dental problems, even when those problems are complex. Please call our Maryville office today to schedule an evaluation and learn how we can help you achieve a healthy, beautiful smile!
Damaged teeth need support.
Porcelain dental crowns are natural-looking restorations.
Dental crowns protect teeth that have been weakened by advanced decay, infection, or trauma. At Compass Dental Group, we provide tooth-colored porcelain crowns that restore teeth without detracting from the appearance of your smile. Here are just some of the things crowns can do:
- Protect compromised teeth
- Reinforce teeth after root canals
- Complete dental implant restorations
- Act as anchors for a dental bridge or partial dentures
Using CEREC technology, we can create your dental restoration in a single visit. Only a few steps are required to complete the process, including taking digital impressions of your teeth and selecting a color that matches your natural enamel shade.

SMILE WITH CONFIDENCE ONCE AGAIN
Missing teeth affect dental function.
Porcelain bridges can restore your smile.
Missing teeth are not only visually unappealing, but they can also cause oral health issues such as bite misalignment. A porcelain dental bridge replaces these missing teeth in a comfortable, natural-looking way.
Dental bridges work by filling in the gaps left by missing teeth. They consist of crowns on each end, which are anchored to the teeth on either side of the space, and the replacement tooth (or teeth) in the middle. The result is a beautiful, durable replacement that allows you to bite, chew, and smile normally.
Other advantages include:
- Long-term solution to discomfort caused by missing teeth
- Reduced risk of periodontal disease, jaw pain, and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder
Compass Dental Group fits you with bridges that look and feel like your own teeth. You’ll love the difference in your confidence.
Losing teeth affects your bite and self-esteem.
Dental implants let you smile with confidence.
The loss of a tooth can be devastating, not just in terms of the way you look but also due to side effects that can prevent you from smiling freely. Dental implants can help prevent health consequences associated with missing teeth, such as:
- Shifting teeth
- Chewing problems
- Bite misalignment
- Bone loss
- Jaw pain
A biocompatible titanium implant replaces the tooth root, while the porcelain crown replaces the visible portion of the tooth for a result that looks and feels like the real thing.
Tooth loss impacts your life on many levels.
Dentures are a comfortable, convenient solution.
Missing teeth can have devastating effects on your everyday life, from a lack of confidence to an inability to properly eat, speak, or bite. Our skilled dentists at Compass Dental Group can restore your smile and get you back to living life to the fullest!
Dentures are the most tried-and-true method for replacing missing teeth. Partial dentures are a great option if you still have some healthy teeth in place. These remaining teeth lend extra support to the denture and help prevent it from shifting. If the entire arch must be replaced, traditional dentures are the way to go. Both kinds of dentures are removable and fit over your gums to restore function and present a bright, healthy smile.
TMD affects your quality of life.
Botox therapy comfortably relieves jaw tension.
Traditionally, doctors used Botox to diminish aging signs such as wrinkles and frown lines. In recent years, Botox injections have become a popular treatment for more troublesome issues such as temporomandibular joint disorder, or TMD, which can include headaches, clenching, and grinding, or bruxism.
Botox injections often provide substantial relief for people suffering from soreness related to TMD. Botox allows your facial muscles to perform daily activities such as chewing, speaking, and swallowing while reducing their ability to grind and clench, making it a convenient, effective option for relieving TMD pain. To determine if you are a candidate for Botox therapy, contact our office today to schedule an evaluation.
