Restorative Dentists in Towson, MD
Dr. Ousborne and Dr. Esterson have a wide breadth of knowledge when it comes to restorative dentistry. They have expanded our restorative dentistry services to ensure we can help all of our patients revitalize their smiles following dental damage or tooth loss. Together, they will help you come up with a restorative dentistry treatment plan that best meets your needs. The following are potential restorative dentistry services that we offer in our Towson, MD dentist office:
Dental Bridges
Dental bridges are a quick, cost-effective, and minimally invasive approach to replacing one or more missing teeth. Utilizing the support of your surrounding teeth, the bridgework is held securely in place of the missing teeth.
Dental Crowns
Dental crowns are prosthetic caps designed to fit over the foundational core of your natural tooth. They are a great option for patients who have experienced a severe chip or crack within their smile. The dental crown aesthetically and functionally replaces the damaged tooth while allowing patients to avoid the need for a tooth extraction.
Dental Implants
Dental implants are the premier option when it comes to tooth replacement. Involving a surgically implanted titanium post, a dental implant replaces the tooth-roots of your natural tooth. This means less bone loss, fewer dietary restrictions, and reduced long-term maintenance needs. Patients love dental implants because they are the closest tooth restoration option that mimics all aspects of a natural tooth.
Dentures & Partials
If you are missing many teeth or a full arch of teeth custom dentures and partials fit snugly and securely within your hard and soft tissues. We also offer implant-supported dentures and partials for a more secure fit.
Periodontal Disease Treatment
Gum disease is an extremely common dental concern. When left untreated, gum disease can cause many negative effects on your smile. To help our patients restore their smiles following gum disease, we offer periodontal disease treatment plans including scaling and root planing to help save your soft tissues from the harmful bacteria associated with gum disease.
TMJ Treatment
Jaw pain, tension headaches, and facial soreness are all symptoms of a TMJ disorder. To help patients manage their TMJ disorders, we offer TMJ treatment plans which include oral appliance therapy. With oral appliance therapy, patients can reduce the amount of unwanted tension in their jaw joints and restore their peace-of-mind.
