Restore Your Smile

Even with regular brushing, flossing, and dental check-ups, teeth are still susceptible to damage and decay. Dental issues, such as tooth decay, gum disease, and tooth loss, can have a significant impact on your overall oral health and quality of life. However, modern dental solutions are available to help combat these issues and restore your smile to its natural beauty and function.

If you're looking to restore the appearance and function of your teeth, Darcy A Wakefield Family Dentistry & Orthodontics is here to help. Our restorative dental solutions are designed to meet your unique needs, whether you need a simple filling or a complete smile makeover. Our practice is conveniently located in Cambridge OH, and we serve patients from the surrounding areas as well.

What are Dental Restorations?

Dental restorations are procedures that aim to restore the function and appearance of damaged or missing teeth. They include treatments such as fillings, crowns, bridges, and implants. Restorative dental solutions can help to improve your oral health and restore your confidence in your smile.

Who Needs Dental Restorations?

Anyone who has damaged or missing teeth can benefit from restorative dental solutions. They can help to improve your ability to chew and speak, prevent further damage to your teeth, and restore the appearance of your smile. Some of the most common reasons for needing restorative dental solutions include tooth decay, injury, and wear and tear.

Restorative Dental Solutions

Composite fillings are a type of dental restoration that are used to repair teeth that have been damaged by decay, trauma, or other issues. They are made from a tooth-colored resin material that blends in with the natural color of your teeth, providing a more aesthetically pleasing result than traditional amalgam fillings. Composite fillings are a durable and long-lasting solution for restoring damaged or decayed teeth.The process of getting a composite filling typically involves numbing the affected tooth with a local anesthetic, removing any decay or damage, and filling the cavity with the composite resin material. Dr. Wakefield will ensure that the filling is properly shaped and polished to create a comfortable and natural-looking result.
Dental crowns are a type of dental restoration that are used to repair and protect teeth that have been severely damaged or weakened. They are custom-made to fit over the entire tooth, covering it from the gum line up to the biting surface. Dental crowns can be made from a variety of materials, including porcelain, ceramic, and metal. Porcelain and ceramic crowns are popular because they can be color-matched to the natural color of your teeth, providing a more natural-looking restoration. Metal crowns are often used on back teeth due to their durability.
Dental bridges are a restorative dental solution that may be recommended for patients who are missing one or more teeth. They are designed to fill in the gap created by missing teeth, restoring the function of your teeth and improving the appearance of your smile. Bridges consist of two or more dental crowns that are attached to the teeth on either side of the gap, with a false tooth (or teeth) in the middle to fill the space. The false tooth is called a pontic, and it can be made from a variety of materials, including porcelain, ceramic, or gold.
Dental implants are designed to function as a permanent replacement for the root of a missing tooth and are typically made of titanium or a titanium alloy. The implant is surgically placed into the jawbone, where it fuses with the bone over time through a process called osseointegration. Once the implant has fully integrated with the jawbone, an abutment is placed on top of the implant, which serves as the foundation for a dental crown, bridge, or denture. Dental implants are considered to be one of the most effective and durable solutions for replacing missing teeth, as they provide a long-lasting, natural-looking, and functional replacement for a missing tooth. They can also help to prevent bone loss in the jaw and provide support for adjacent teeth, which can help to prevent further tooth loss and maintain optimal oral health.
