With our comprehensive restorative care, you can take back your overall oral health so you can eat, laugh, and smile with confidence.
Dental Fillings
Cavities are one of the most common oral diseases, so it’s imperative we tackle them as soon as they begin to compromise the health and wellness of your teeth. When left untreated, they can cause serious discomfort and may require more invasive procedures to alleviate. Thanks to fillings, your dentist can halt the progression of tooth decay in a single visit. By stopping by for your regular 6-month cleaning and checkup, you can prevent new cavities from forming in the first place.
Root Canal Therapy
Toothaches can be a sign of a serious infection and cause significant discomfort. Fortunately, root canal therapy offers a solution to provide the relief you need and restore the health of your tooth. During a root canal procedure, the infected pulp of the tooth is removed, and the area is thoroughly cleaned and disinfected. Once the tooth has been properly treated, it can be restored with a filling or a dental crown to help maintain its structure. Not only can root canal therapy alleviate the pain caused by the infection, but it can also prevent the need for a tooth extraction. By saving your natural tooth, you can smile with confidence and avoid more extensive and costly dental work down the line.Dental Implants
If you’re faced with the need for a tooth extraction or if you’re already missing a tooth, remember you’ve got plenty of options for a replacement. One top choice is dental implants. They do more than just fill in your smile. They also restore the strength of your bite and promote the overall health of your mouth. The best part? Dental implants are not only long-lasting and secure but can also slow, or even halt, bone loss by imitating the shape and function of your natural tooth roots. Want to learn more?

When you’re missing more than a few teeth in a row, your oral wellness takes a hit — not to mention your confidence and overall health as well. With crowns and bridges, our team can restore your bite for the long run. Since crowns and bridges are affixed to your smile, they won’t move or shift, making them a great alternative to partial dentures. There’s also no invasive surgery involved, so you can skip the healing time and get back to smiling again.
Dentures
Dentures are a removable, affordable solution that can complete your smile after missing one or all of your natural teeth. To ensure a natural look and feel, most dentures are made of a combination of acrylic and metal and are custom-crafted for a comfortable fit. Looking to see if dentures in Columbia are right for you? Schedule a consultation to find out if a set of full or partial dentures can restore your bite. It’s about time you got back to living your life with a smile.
Implant-Retained Dentures
Tired of your dentures slipping and sliding around in your mouth? Implant-retained dentures, also called overdentures or snap-on dentures, can replace all of your teeth, just like traditional dentures. However, instead of relying on suction or adhesive, they are secured in place with several dental implants. These removable appliances make it easy to keep up with your oral hygiene, and are made from a combination of acrylic and metal materials for enhanced durability.
Implant Crowns
After your dental implant has been affixed, your dentist will make the finishing touches by adding an implant crown! Dental crowns act as tooth “caps” that are fitted onto the implant. Your dentist will ensure the size and color of your implant crown matches with the rest of your other teeth, so you can have a seamless new smile.
