Restorative Dentistry Services at North Alabama Smiles

At North Alabama Smiles, our dedicated team offers the following restorative dental services: 

  • Crowns

When a tooth is damaged due to severe decay or a crack or fracture, it can be strengthened with a crown. The tooth's surface is reduced in a crown placement procedure, and the restoration is attached over the top. The crown looks and functions just like your natural tooth while the root remains in place.

  • Bridges

A dental bridge comprises one or several false teeth. The bridge is held in position by crowns placed over the existing teeth on either side or by dental implants. The bridge rests on the gum line but does not include a root.

  • Dentures

Dentures are a cost-effective replacement option for entire arches of missing teeth. Removable dentures can be fixed to the gums with adhesives while implant-supported dentures are held in position by dental implants placed in the jawbone.

  • Bonding

Bonding is used for repairing chipped, fractured, or broken teeth. The process includes reconstructing the missing portion of enamel by shaping and bonding composite materials to the natural tooth.

  • Veneers

Veneers help conceal broken, chipped, discolored, crooked, or misshapen teeth.  They are thin, transparent porcelain shells that are attached to the tooth surface to improve its appearance.

  • Fillings

This option is used to fill in the decayed portions of your teeth after cavity treatment and prevent the future development of cavities.
