Welcome to Montgomery Dental Associates & Implantology Center in Rockville, MD, where Dr. Mark Hagigi and our dedicated team are committed to restoring the health and function of your teeth. Restorative dentistry is dental care of which the main objective is to restore the health and function of your teeth. Restorative treatments are usually used when patients have sustained damage to their teeth caused by dental decay or trauma, and they are also used to replace missing teeth. Some of the most common dental restoration treatments include dental bridges, dental crowns, dental fillings, dental implants, and dentures. In addition to restoring the function and utility of damaged or missing teeth, restorative treatments also serve as cosmetic enhancements, specifically for treatments that replace natural teeth in their entirety.
Our Restorative Dentistry Services
At Montgomery Dental Associates & Implantology Center, we offer a range of restorative dentistry services to meet your unique needs. Our dentist and team collaborate with each patient to find the correct restorative treatment to repair their smiles. Treatments may combine one or more procedures, depending on the individual patient’s needs. Restorative dentistry is an excellent way to help ensure your teeth remain healthy and your smile bright and beautiful. Most restorative treatments can be completed in only one dental visit, but some are more extensive and require more appointments to complete.
Dental Crowns
Dental crowns are custom-made caps that cover a damaged or decayed tooth. They restore the tooth’s shape, size, and strength, and improve its appearance. Crowns are an ideal solution for teeth that are cracked, worn down, or have large fillings.
Dental Bridge
A dental bridge is used to replace one or more missing teeth. It consists of two or more crowns for the teeth on either side of the gap and a false tooth in between. Bridges help restore your smile and maintain the shape of your face.
Dentures & Partials
Dentures and partials are removable appliances that replace missing teeth and surrounding tissues. Full dentures are used when all teeth are missing, while partials are used when some natural teeth remain. They help improve chewing, speech, and provide support for facial muscles.
TMJ Treatment
TMJ treatment addresses issues with the temporomandibular joint, which connects your jaw to your skull. Symptoms of TMJ disorders include jaw pain, headaches, and difficulty chewing. Our treatments aim to relieve pain and restore normal jaw function.
Periodontal Disease Therapy
Periodontal disease therapy is essential for treating gum disease, which can lead to tooth loss if left untreated. Our therapy includes deep cleaning, scaling, and root planing to remove plaque and tartar from below the gum line and promote healthy gums.
Dental Implants
Dental implants are a permanent solution for missing teeth. They consist of a titanium post that is surgically placed into the jawbone and a crown that looks and functions like a natural tooth. We offer various types of implants, including:
- Single Tooth Implants: Ideal for replacing a single missing tooth.
- Multiple Teeth Implants: Used when several teeth are missing.
- All-on-Four Implants: A full arch replacement using only four implants.
Root Canals
Root canals are a common restorative dentistry procedure used to save a tooth that is severely infected or decayed. During a root canal, the infected pulp inside the tooth is removed, and the inside of the tooth is cleaned and sealed. This procedure helps alleviate pain and prevents the infection from spreading to other teeth. Root canals are an effective way to preserve your natural tooth and maintain your smile’s integrity.
Full Mouth Reconstruction
Full mouth reconstruction is a comprehensive treatment plan that addresses multiple dental issues to restore the function and appearance of your entire mouth. This process may involve a combination of restorative procedures such as crowns, bridges, implants, and veneers. Full mouth reconstruction is tailored to each patient’s specific needs, ensuring that all aspects of oral health are addressed. Whether you have extensive damage, missing teeth, or bite alignment issues, full mouth reconstruction can help you achieve a healthy, functional, and aesthetically pleasing smile.
