Service description
Restoring Your Smile's Health and Integrity
When a tooth is compromised by decay, damage, or fracture, it affects not only your smile's appearance but also its fundamental health and function. Restorative dentistry focuses on repairing and saving your natural teeth, preventing future problems, and bringing your smile back to full strength. At Union Dental, we utilize modern materials and a meticulous approach to deliver restorative treatments that are built to last.

We believe in using the best materials for the job, ensuring strength and excellent aesthetics for your crowns. We will always provide you with a transparent assessment of your situation and recommend a solution based on durability and what is truly best for your health—not just the quickest fix. This commitment to quality ensures your restored smile is both beautiful and resilient.
Our process
Our Restorative Dentistry Services
We offer a full suite of services to repair damaged teeth and rebuild your smile. Your treatment will always begin with a thorough examination to determine the most appropriate solution for your specific needs.
Dental Crowns & Bridges
Dental Crowns: A crown is a custom-made cap that covers the entire tooth, restoring its shape, size, strength, and appearance. We recommend crowns for teeth that are significantly decayed, fractured, or have undergone root canal therapy. We offer a variety of high-quality materials to meet your specific needs.
Dental Bridges: A bridge is used to replace one or more missing teeth by "bridging" the gap with a prosthetic tooth, which is anchored by crowns on the adjacent natural teeth.
Tooth-Colored Fillings
For minor to moderate tooth decay, a tooth-colored filling is an excellent solution. We use modern composite resin to fill the cavity, matching the material to your natural tooth shade for a seamless repair that is both durable and aesthetically pleasing.
Dental Sealants
As a proactive restorative measure, we can apply dental sealants to the chewing surfaces of your molars. This thin, protective layer seals the deep grooves and pits where bacteria can hide, helping to prevent decay from ever starting.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
The best treatment depends largely on the size and extent of the tooth decay or fracture. While smaller issues can often be resolved with a filling, larger areas of damage typically require the full coverage and protection of a dental crown. A definitive answer always requires an in-office examination by one of our dentists.
With proper care and regular dental checkups, modern restorations can last for many years. We use high-quality, durable materials to maximize the lifespan of our restorative work.
A dental bridge is a fixed prosthetic device used to replace one or more missing teeth. It typically consists of one or more artificial teeth (pontics) held in place by dental crowns that are cemented onto the natural teeth on either side of the gap.
