Our Restorative Dentistry Treatments

Dentures

Dentures are a custom-made, removable option for replacing missing teeth.

  • Full dentures replace all teeth in the upper or lower jaw.
  • Partial dentures fill gaps when some natural teeth remain.
  • Modern materials provide a comfortable and natural-looking fit.

Dental Implants

Dental implants offer a permanent, fixed solution to missing teeth.

  • A titanium post is placed in the jawbone, acting as a replacement root.
  • A custom crown is fitted on top for a natural appearance.
  • Implants prevent bone loss and maintain jaw structure.

Dental Bridges

A dental bridge is used to replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring to adjacent teeth.

  • Fixed in place, unlike dentures.
  • Restores function and prevents shifting of remaining teeth.
  • Made from durable, natural-looking materials.

Am I a Candidate for Restorative Dentistry?

You may benefit from restorative dentistry if you:

  • Have missing, broken, or severely decayed teeth.
  • Experience difficulty chewing or speaking due to tooth loss.
  • Want a long-term solution for a healthier smile.

At Heathwood Dental Practice, we tailor each treatment to your specific needs to ensure the best functional and aesthetic outcome.

Restorative Dentistry FAQs

How long do dental implants last?

With good care, implants can last a lifetime, though the crown may need replacing after 10-15 years.

Are dentures comfortable to wear?

Modern dentures are designed for comfort and stability, though an adjustment period is normal.

Can I eat normally with a dental bridge?

Yes! A bridge allows you to chew and speak naturally, just like real teeth.
