Bring Back Your Beautiful Smile with Restorative Dentistry in Wichita Falls
If you have chipped, cracked, or decayed teeth, you probably have a smile you’re not eager to show the world. They can make you feel self-conscious and always have a second thought when it comes to attending social situations. Worst of all, they can actually affect the functionality of your teeth, making it difficult to do every day things like eat and speak. Fortunately, Dr. Shelly Strohman and our team can perform a variety of restorative procedures that can fix your teeth and bring back your confident smile. Read on to learn more about how we can help, and contact our office today to get the treatment you need.
Partial Dentures
Dentures have been used for generations because they are one of the most effective and reliable ways to replace missing teeth. Modern day dentures still consist of a gum-colored acrylic base attached to prosthetic teeth, but they are dramatically more comfortable and natural-looking than ones from the past.
We can use a partial denture to replace multiple missing teeth. We’ll make sure you get the exact look and feel you want so you can talk, eat, and smile with ease.
Dental Crowns
A broken or decayed tooth can’t heal itself. However, with a well-made dental crown, we can restore the tooth’s shape and function while also protecting it from further harm. A dental crown is made to completely cover the tooth, and it can be customized to ensure that it is the right shape and size for your smile. One of the key advantages of dental crowns is that they’re very versatile, meaning they can be used in all sorts of situations.
Tooth-Colored Fillings
One of the most common restorative treatments performed by our team is a tooth-colored filling to repair a tooth that has been affected by decay. Made of a composite resin material, these fillings match the existing color of your teeth and form a strong and practically seamless bond to the remaining tooth structure. This makes them much more aesthetically pleasing than traditional amalgam fillings, and they even require less of your tooth to be removed while being placed. All in all, you get the best of both strength and beauty with just one treatment.
Teeth Extractions
Our goal at Strohman Dental is always to protect and preserve your natural teeth, but sometimes, a tooth can become so damaged that the best thing to do is simply remove it. It may also be necessary to remove baby teeth to make way for incoming permanent teeth. We understand this can make many patients nervous, so you can trust that we’ll only extract teeth as a last resort. Thanks to modern dental techniques, technology, and sedation practices, we can make your extraction virtually painless.
Dental Bridges
Are you missing one to several teeth in a row? If so, one of the best ways to address this specific situation is with dental bridges. These prosthetics are designed to fill in gaps in the smile by resting atop healthy nearby teeth for support. Our team will design your bridges to match your unique smile, that way they can blend seamlessly with the rest of your pearly whites. We also have different kinds of these prosthetics, and we’ll be glad to walk you through your options so that you can regain your natural bite.
