Restorative Dentistry
Restorative dentistry focuses on repairing and rebuilding damaged or missing teeth to restore your oral function, appearance, and health. It includes treatments such as fillings, crowns, bridges, implants, and other procedures that help you maintain a healthy, functional, and beautiful smile.
Composite Fillings
Harmful bacteria on teeth can cause decay, which if left untreated, may lead to pain or infection. Composite fillings, made of a natural-looking tooth-colored resin that is both strong and durable, provide a safe and effective way to repair decayed teeth and help prevent additional damage. During the procedure, we carefully remove the decayed tissue and then place the composite filling to restore the tooth’s strength and appearance.
Dental Crowns
At Neal Family Dentistry, we understand that over time, teeth can weaken and become more prone to decay, cracks, or discoloration. A dental crown is an excellent solution to restore both the strength and appearance of a damaged tooth, offering lasting protection and functionality.
​
Crowns are versatile and can be used to reinforce a fragile tooth, hold together a crack, cover and support decayed or broken teeth, or improve the look of severely discolored teeth. They are also commonly used in conjunction with root canal treatments, dental implants, or as a base for bridges. Crafted from porcelain to blend naturally with your smile, crowns require standard oral hygiene practices and regular dental checkups to help ensure their longevity for many years.
Dental Implants
At Neal Family Dentistry, we assess each patient's unique needs and collaborate with trusted specialists to provide comprehensive dental implant solutions. Whether used with crowns for individual tooth replacement or to secure dentures, we work closely with specialists to ensure you receive the most effective and comfortable care tailored to your goals and oral health.
Bridges
At Neal Family Dentistry, we offer dental bridges as a reliable way to replace one or more missing teeth. This restorations work by crowning neighboring teeth to serve as anchors for the replacement, helping to maintain proper structure and prevent neighboring teeth from shifting into gaps.
​
Replacing missing teeth with a bridge is important to prevent changes to your mouth and jaw that can make eating, speaking, and other functions difficult. We ensure your dental bridge is custom-crafted to match the color, size, and shape of your natural teeth, using strong, durable materials designed to last for many years with proper care. If you're considering tooth replacement, contact us to schedule a consultation so we can help you achieve a healthy, functional smile.
Dentures
At Neal Family Dentistry, we offer dentures as a comfortable and effective solution for replacing one or more missing teeth, restoring both function and appearance. Complete dentures are used to replace an entire upper or lower arch, while partial dentures fill in gaps when some natural teeth remain—helping to prevent adjacent teeth from shifting. To keep your dentures in good condition, clean them regularly with a soft-bristle toothbrush and a gentle, non-abrasive cleanser, and attend your routine dental checkups. Dentures generally last between 5 to 10 years and may need refitting or replacement as you age. Dr. Neal and our team are here to help evaluate your needs and assist you in restoring your smile with confidence.
