What is Restorative Dentistry?
Restorative dentistry involves various treatments to address dental issues such as decay, damage, or missing teeth. Our primary goal is to restore your child’s teeth to optimal health by repairing cavities with fillings, strengthening weakened teeth with crowns, replacing missing teeth with implants or bridges, or providing custom-fit dentures for enhanced functionality.
Types of Dental Restorations We Offer
Fillings
When decay affects a tooth, our tooth-colored fillings offer a seamless solution. We prioritize preserving healthy tooth structure while effectively removing decay and restoring the tooth’s integrity, ensuring a natural appearance and long-term durability.
Crowns
Extensively damaged or weakened teeth may require crowns. These custom-fitted caps restore the tooth’s shape, strength, and functionality. Our pediatric-friendly crowns ensure durability and aesthetics, safeguarding your child’s smile.
Bridges
For missing teeth, bridges serve as a stable and functional replacement. These artificial teeth bridge the gap, anchored securely to adjacent natural teeth, restoring chewing ability and maintaining proper alignment.
Implants
Dental implants are a permanent solution for missing teeth. They mimic natural teeth in appearance and function, promoting stability and preventing bone loss, ensuring a confident and natural smile for your child.
Dentures
Customized dentures provide an effective solution for multiple missing teeth. Our team ensures a comfortable fit, allowing your child to speak, eat, and smile confidently.
Common Dental Issues Addressed At Texas Little Teeth
At Texas Little Teeth, we address several common dental issues that affect children’s oral health:
Tooth Decay
Tooth decay, often caused by plaque buildup and poor oral hygiene, can lead to cavities. Our approach involves gentle yet thorough cavity treatment, restoring affected teeth with minimally invasive techniques, and preventing further decay through education on proper oral care practices.
Cracked or Chipped Teeth
Accidents or injuries can result in cracked or chipped teeth, impacting appearance and functionality. Our restorative procedures aim to repair these teeth, ensuring they regain their strength and aesthetics to maintain your child’s confidence in their smile.
Missing Teeth
Missing teeth can affect speech, chewing, and self-esteem. Whether caused by injury or decay, our tailored solutions offer effective replacements to restore functionality and improve your child’s overall oral health and confidence.
Gum Disease
Gum disease, if left untreated, can lead to serious oral health issues. Our preventive measures and treatments focus on maintaining healthy gums, ensuring your child’s oral health remains optimal.
