Restorative Dentistry

LeFleur Dental Group

When you smile, you’re not just showing your teeth. You’re revealing who you are. But if you’re self-conscious about your teeth, you may hold back that outgoing, confident side of you. Here’s where our restorative dentistry in Jackson comes in.

Overview

Restorative dentistry is a dental specialty that deals with diagnosing and managing teeth that are either damaged, worn down, or missing. These problems can occur due to everyday wear and tear, aging, decay, or accidents. In restorative dentistry, a combination of techniques, tools, and procedures help restore, repair, or replace any damage to the teeth, gums, or surrounding tissues.

At LeFleur Dental Group, we understand that your smile is essential to your personal and professional life. That’s why our restorative dentistry services can transform your smile and give you newfound confidence. Schedule a consultation today with Dr. William Mayfield, Dr. Gay Crosby, or Dr. Mickey Crosby. They’ll help you take a closer look at restorative dentistry, how it can fix your dental problems, and help you regain your smile’s full potential.

When You Might Need Restorative Dentistry

LeFleur Dental Group offers a wide range of restorative dentistry procedures, including dental crowns, bridges, and dental fillings.

There are several scenarios where restorative dentistry can help you regain your dental health and confidence. For example, you might need dental fillings or crowns if you have chipped or broken teeth, cracks or cavities, or tooth decay. For missing teeth, you might need bridges. Restorative dentistry can also be helpful for people who are experiencing gum disease or other conditions that affect the oral tissues.

The Benefits of Restorative Dentistry

Restorative dentistry offers several benefits beyond restoring your teeth’ functionality and aesthetics. These benefits include:

Improved speech and confidence:

Restorative dentistry can help you speak, eat, and smile confidently by giving you a healthy, functional smile.

Enhanced oral health:

When your teeth and gums are healthy, your oral health and well-being improve.

Natural-looking smile:

At LeFleur Dental Group, we use modern techniques and high-quality materials in our restorative procedures, which give you a natural-looking, healthy, and beautiful smile that will last for years.

What to Expect During Your Restorative Dentistry Procedure

The procedure for restorative dentistry will depend on the type of treatment you need. Most treatments will start with a comprehensive dental examination, during which we’ll evaluate your current dental health, take x-rays and scans, and recommend the best course of treatment.

The first dental crown step involves preparing the affected tooth by removing any decay or damage. Then, we will take an impression of the tooth to create a custom-fit crown. A temporary crown is placed on the tooth while the permanent crown is fabricated. Finally, the permanent crown is cemented into place, restoring the function and appearance of the tooth.

We’ll remove the decayed or damaged tooth matter for dental fillings, then fill the cavity with a dental composite resin that matches your natural tooth color.
