Restorative Dentistry in Jamaica Plain, MA

If the structure or appearance of your natural tooth has been compromised, a dental crown may be the solution. Crowns completely cap the visible portion of your tooth and allow you to perform daily tasks like eating, speaking, and smiling with ease.

If you’re missing one or more teeth, dental bridges can be used to fill in the empty space. A bridge uses two dental crowns to attach to the teeth surrounding the space and the false teeth will fit perfectly into the gap.

A dental implant serves as a replacement tooth root that fuses with your natural jawbone. Once your implant has fully healed, a replacement tooth will be attached to the implant. Dental implants look, feel, and function like natural teeth. When properly taken care of, dental implants can be a lifelong solution.

Dentures can be used to replace a few missing teeth or an entire arch. They have gum-like acrylic bases with false (yet natural-looking) teeth attached. Full dentures are held in place with strong dental adhesives and partial dentures use discreet metal clips to attach to the remaining teeth.

Root canal treatment is a procedure that both relieves your pain and saves your natural tooth. The infected pulp of your tooth is removed, your root canal is cleaned, and your tooth is sealed to prevent further infection. While the stigma around root canal therapy can be a bit daunting, we promise to keep you as comfortable as possible throughout treatment.

In certain situations, teeth may need to be extracted. It is common to have wisdom teeth removed if they are erupting at an angle, creating crowding, or causing any tooth pain. Additionally, some teeth may be past the point of restoration and need an extraction before you can proceed with cosmetic enhancements. We can perform many extractions in our office without having to refer you to an oral surgeon outside of the office.
