Get Back Your Healthy Smile With Restorative Dental Care

By visiting Oelwein Dental Associates, you’ll benefit from our research-backed treatment techniques and modern dental technology. When you come in for your appointment, we use digital X-rays to quickly get images of your mouth and do a thorough exam. It helps us determine the best path to restore your smile.

If you need restorations made, we’ll capture impressions of your teeth with our digital scanner. No more messy goop! We can also make your dental crown in the office with our CEREC machine. That means you get your crown in one visit and won’t need to wear a temporary.

Your dentist may recommend one or several restorative dental services:

Tooth Fillings – Our non-metal composite fillings blend in easily with your other teeth. They are mercury-free to protect your oral and overall health.
Root Canals – We’ll remove the infected portion of your tooth with a root canal procedure. It helps you avoid an extraction.
Dental Crowns – A crown can repair your tooth damaged by a large cavity or an injury.
Inlays or Onlays – These partial crowns can fix damage that is too severe for a filling but doesn’t need a crown.
Dental Bridges – Replace one or several teeth with a dental bridge. Instead of anchoring it to nearby teeth, we can secure it to implants.
Dentures –We have partial or full-arch dentures. You can secure them to implants for better oral function and a stronger bite. Implants will also keep you from losing bone in your jaw.

If you are interested in implants, you can trust your smile in the hands of Dr. Adam. A Fellow in the International Congress of Oral Implantologists, he has extensive experience in this procedure. He teaches continuing education courses to other dentists interested in implant placement.

Common Questions About Restorative Dentistry

What does restorative dentistry include?

Any time you have a tooth that suffers damage from decay, infection, injury, or another type of trauma, restorative dentistry can repair it so you can save the tooth from further damage or extraction. Restorative treatment includes any service designed to relieve pain and help you regain oral function, like tooth fillings, root canals, crowns, bridges, inlays or onlays, dentures and dental implants.

How long do dental crowns and bridges last?

Dental crowns and bridges are a fantastic investment in your smile. Most of our patients can expect their new crown or bridge to last at least five to seven years after placement. However, these restorations can last longer, especially if you take care not to chew hard, gummy, or sticky foods.

Who might need dentures?

If you’ve lost all or nearly all your teeth, you might be a good candidate for dentures. Dentures can replace either full arches or partial arches of teeth with lifelike artificial teeth. You’ll enjoy a beautiful smile again, plus you’ll have a wider selection of delicious and nutritious foods you can indulge in.
