Restorative Care

Creating Healthy Functioning Smiles

Restorative dentistry refers to the restoration of natural teeth that have been damaged, decayed, or lost. Restorations may include crowns, bridges, or dental implants. In addition to precision-crafted crowns and bridges, Dr. Michael Boldt is a restorative dentist that provides dental implant restorations to permanently replace missing teeth.

Crowns “Caps”

Crowns are dental restorations, also known as “caps,” or coverings that fit over teeth. Crowns are used to protect old fillings and fractured, chipped, or sensitive teeth. Crowns can improve the appearance of natural teeth that are malformed, poorly positioned, or discolored. Crowns are made of natural-looking porcelain. Sometimes a metal shell is used under the porcelain to provide additional strength.

Please visit Boldt Dental’s Patient Education Library to learn more about crowns.

Bridge

A bridge is the ideal way to replace missing teeth. A bridge is used when one or more teeth are lost and there are still healthy teeth on either side of the space. A bridge containing replacement teeth can be attached to two crowns placed over the two teeth on either side of a space.
