Achieve a Perfect Smile with Cutting-Edge Restorative Dental Treatments
A healthy, beautiful smile is crucial to your overall well-being and oral health. In addition to allowing you to chew food, speak properly, and interact with others, a restored smile also gives you back the confidence you need. If you’re missing one or more of your natural teeth, Drs. Jamie Richard and Christina VerSchave with Dentistry at Golden Ridge have a customized solution for you.
How Restorative Dentistry Improves Overall Oral Health
When you’re missing one or more teeth, it affects more than just your smile. Any of these complications can occur.
- When a tooth is missing, the adjacent teeth are more susceptible to decay, creating additional costly and painful dental issues.
- People with missing teeth have an increased risk of gum disease, which can eventually result in additional tooth loss.
- The remaining teeth can shift, causing misalignment and crooked teeth.
- One of the most problematic complications of missing even one tooth is potential bone loss in the jaw.

Tooth-Colored Restorations: Natural-Looking Crowns and Fillings
If your dentist can save your natural tooth, it can often be restored using crowns and fillings. Crowns and fillings give you an aesthetically pleasing and discreet option for repairing teeth that have been damaged and need to be restored. Today’s crowns are made with either resin or porcelain, which look beautiful alongside natural teeth. Best of all, crowns can protect and even strengthen teeth that have become weakened or decayed. Tooth-colored fillings offer discretion when you need a cavity filled, a much more natural-looking fix than the metal crowns of the past.
Dental Implants: A Permanent Solution for One or More Missing Teeth
A dental implant is an excellent solution if you miss just one tooth. Dental implants function nearly identically to natural teeth, so you will not notice any difference in how your tooth functions. A dental implant has a titanium post, a metal abutment, and a porcelain crown. The titanium post is embedded into the jawbone, fusing with the jaw to become a part of your bone structure. It takes a few months for the post to heal and fuse. Then, it’s topped with an abutment and porcelain crown. Additionally, dental implants can be used to support dentures, bridges, and partials.
