Gain Back Fully Functional Teeth

If you need to address dental damage, your dentist can repair cavities with composite tooth fillings. They improve your smile’s strength and beauty, and tooth-colored composite blends into your smile in a way that metal fillings can’t.
For more extensive damage, you may need a dental crown. A custom-made crown will protect and restore a damaged tooth.
If infection gets inside your tooth, your dentist can treat it with root canal therapy. This treatment preserves your natural tooth while eliminating infection and pain.
To replace missing teeth, we offer:
- Dental Bridges – Replace missing teeth and restore function with a secure bridge.
- Dentures – Choose partial, full traditional, or implant dentures.
- Dental Implants – This gold standard for tooth replacement provides natural oral function.

Your dentist uses a biomimetic approach with our restorative procedures. We preserve as much of your natural tooth structure as possible. Our materials and techniques mimic your tooth’s beauty and durability.
Our team will make your visit as comfortable as possible. We’ll guide you through each step of the procedure. Your dentist will avoid any unnecessary drilling and protect as much of your healthy tooth as possible. While this technique minimizes discomfort, we offer sedation if you experience anxiety.
Once your treatment is complete, we’ll provide aftercare tips to maintain your restored teeth. With regular checkups and good oral hygiene, you’ll enjoy the benefits of your new smile for years to come.
Call 575-332-5352 for an appointment with your restorative dentist in Santa Teresa. You can also schedule online.
