Restorative Dental Treatments Include:
Dental Implants: Dental implants restore one or more missing teeth. Tooth implants provide the same anchoring support of a natural tooth root, and are topped by an artificial tooth that looks, feels, and acts like your surrounding teeth. Dental implants are some of the most successful restorative and cosmetic dental procedures.

Porcelain Crowns: Porcelain dental crowns are artificial teeth that are precisely shaped and colored to match your natural teeth. Crowns, also known as “caps,” restore functionality to severely damaged or broken teeth. Each dental crown is made of a durable porcelain material that offers chewing support and protection from further tooth decay when placed over the existing damaged tooth.

Dental Veneers: Porcelain veneers are thin, tooth-like ceramic shells that adhere to the front of your teeth. Veneers restore misaligned, cracked, chipped, and discolored teeth. Prepless veneers offer the same aesthetic results, but require less preparatory shaving of the natural tooth enamel.

Dental Bonding: Dental bonding is a fast and effective way to repair teeth that are damaged or unsightly. Dental bonding is an ideal restorative solution for teeth that are chipped, cracked, or broken. The tooth bonding procedure starts with the preparation of the tooth by creating a rough surface for the bonding material to attach to. Then, the enamel-like resin is adhered and sculpted to the broken tooth, covering and sealing the chip or crack. Finally, your dentist will precisely sculpt the tooth to the proper shape and size. A tooth repaired with dental bonding will look and function just like a natural tooth.
Dental Bridges: Dental bridges are a common restoration procedure used to fill the space of one or more missing teeth. Whether supported by a dental implant or an attached crown, a dental bridge restores functionality and appearance to your smile. They help maintain the natural shape of your face, prevent neighboring teeth from shifting, and make everyday tasks like chewing and speaking easier. With proper care, dental bridges can last many years, providing a durable and aesthetically pleasing solution to missing teeth.
Prosthodontics: Prosthodontics is a dental field that focuses on the creation and fitting of artificial replacements of the teeth and mouth. Dental implants, porcelain veneers, bridges, and dental crowns are all prosthodontic procedures used to restore functionality to the mouth.
Dental Fillings: As one of the most common restorative procedures, dental fillings repair spaces left by decay or cracks in teeth. Routine dental checkups are important so that Dr. Hovden, DDS, can detect and restore these slightly damaged teeth.
