Repairing and Restoring Your Smile
OUR APPROACH TO RESTORATIVE DENTAL CARE
Phipps Dental Practice provides a range of restorative treatments to help improve and restore your smile. Our gentle team takes a patient-centered approach and genuinely cares about our patients. We make sure you are comfortable throughout all treatments, and that includes complex restorations and full mouth reconstructions. Restorative dentistry addresses all sorts of dental issues, from extensive decay to missing teeth. Here at Phipps, we use the latest techniques to provide faster treatment, increased comfort, and smoother recovery. Your oral health is in good hands.
Inlays and Onlays
Strong, Natural-Looking Restorations
Inlays and onlays are popular restorative techniques to treat moderate to severe decay or damage. Inlays fit within the natural contours of the tooth’s chewing surface to provide reinforcement and much-need stability. Onlays extend over one or more affected cusps for extra protection.
These treatments require two appointments. With proper oral hygiene and regular dental checkups, they can last for many years without further treatment.
Dental Crowns & Bridges
CUSTOM MADE FOR A PERFECT FIT
A crown is a permanently cemented restoration that fits over the entirety of the tooth to provide strength and protection against future damage. With the help of the iTero digital scanner, our team will take precise images of your tooth so we can create a crown that fits well and complements your existing smile. Our material of choice for crowns is porcelain, which is known for its durability and natural-looking sheen, and we will color-match it to blend beautifully with your smile.
Dental bridges are several crowns fused together to span a space left by one or more missing teeth. The crowns on either end fit over the teeth on either side of the gap and hold the prosthetic tooth (or teeth) in the middle. Crowns and bridges look and feel natural and are a popular restorative technique with dentists and patients alike.
Dental Implants
A SOLID FOUNDATION FOR YOUR NEW SMILE
Dental implants are a popular option for replacing missing teeth because the end result looks and feels just like your natural teeth. We use cone-beam digital imaging to create a 3D rendering of the bones, tissue, and teeth, allowing for a comprehensive evaluation of any issues. This advanced imaging technology ensures our team can develop the most effective treatment plan for you, and it facilitates precise and successful implant placement. The small titanium screws integrate with the jawbone over time and act as the new “tooth roots.” We then fabricate and cement prosthetic teeth directly over the implants to fill the gaps and complete your smile.
Nightguards
CUSTOM APPLIANCES FOR A GOOD NIGHT’S SLEEP
Bruxism, or teeth grinding, can cause a host of problems, from tooth wear and jaw discomfort to painful headaches. Thankfully, you can combat these symptoms by wearing a custom nightguard to protect your teeth while you sleep. Nightguards help relieve jaw tension and reduce the chance of tooth damage by forcing the jaw muscles to relax. Using digital impressions, we can create these specialized appliances at Phipps Dental Practice and help you get back to sleeping peacefully.
Dentures
RESTORING FUNCTION AND BEAUTY
Partial dentures and full dentures are ideal solutions for patients who have lost some or all of their teeth, respectively. Failure to address missing teeth can lead to difficulty chewing and speaking, which can in turn cause you to avoid activities you once enjoyed. We ensure dentures fit snugly in the mouth to restore proper function and allow for confident, comfortable eating and speaking so you can live a healthy life. Dentures also help you avoid developing sunken cheeks and jowls, which can result over time if you have multiple missing teeth. The improvement in appearance that dentures offer can be a great boost to your confidence and self-esteem.
If you’re looking for added stability, implant-supported dentures are a great option. In this instance, dentures attach to surgically placed dental implants. This prevents the dentures from slipping, and they feel more natural than traditional dentures.
Full Mouth Restoration
FOR A TOTAL SMILE TRANSFORMATION
Patients who have extensive damage or complex oral health issues may need a full mouth restoration. Indications might include severe tooth decay, gum disease, or extensive tooth loss. Failure to treat these kinds of issues can significantly affect overall health and well-being. A full mouth restoration involves using a combination of treatments, such as crowns, bridges, and dental implants, to restore function and aesthetics. With a full mouth restoration, you can regain a healthy and beautiful smile at the same time.
Sedation
FOR A COMFORTABLE, RELAXED APPOINTMENT
Sedation options are available to help patients stay calm and relaxed. We have oral sedation and nitrous oxide available. Both options are safe and effective and can help nervous patients to improve their experience when receiving necessary dental care.
