Restorative Dentistry in Virginia Beach, VA

We know that you take good care of your teeth at home with daily brushing and flossing. And at Smile by Design in Virginia Beach, VA, Dr. Stephanie Santos and Dr. Vanita Folck and their staff of dental hygienists and assistant take really, really good care of your teeth in the office. But despite all of these good efforts, there usually comes a time when some type of restorative dentistry is necessary. For those times, you can count on Smiles by Design to have the restorative treatment you need.

Tooth Colored Fillings

Dental cavities are probably the most common oral condition requiring a restorative treatment. At Smile by Design, we repair cavities with tooth-colored fillings. Made of dental porcelain and composite materials, these fillings are not only natural-looking, they are strong and durable, too. Moreover, they require less tooth prep, so you retain more of your natural tooth structure with a tooth-colored filling.

Dental Implants

Whether you are missing teeth because of serious decay or traumatic injury, it’s important to replace those teeth. Dental implants are a lifelike tooth replacement, because they not only replace the crown of a missing tooth, but the root as well. As such, dental implants help you avoid the bone deterioration that can happen when a tooth root is missing. Dental implants can also be strategically placed along the arch to securely hold a partial or full denture in place.

Other Kinds of Tooth Restoration

A crown is a tooth restoration that fully encapsulates a tooth to protect it from further damage. At Smile by Design, we offer CEREC one-visit crowns, so you only need to make one appointment. For teeth that are chipped or cracked, there is cosmetic bonding, which uses composite materials to restore a tooth’s appearance and function. Likewise, inlays and onlays use these materials to repair the chewing surface of your molars.
