Reconstructive dentistry reclaims the beauty, health of your one-of-a-kind smile in Alpharetta, GA
Like “smile makeovers,” reconstructive dentistry applies to those procedures where no two treatment plans look the same. The procedures that Bella Hanono Family Dentistry uses to reveal your healthiest and most attractive smile can vary considerably from person to person. But all full-mouth reconstructions start with a visit to our office in Alpharetta, GA.
The consultation
During your appointment, Dr. Hanono examines your teeth and gums. She determines if, for instance, you are holding on to teeth that may need to be extracted. Of course, extractions are a last resort procedure. But they may be necessary to restore oral health if a tooth cannot be preserved with nonsurgical root canal therapy. Be prepared to discuss what you like about your smile, as well as what you do not like. There is considerable art and science applied toward reconstructive dentistry; your unique treatment plan is as much about what we find using our diagnostics as it is about your personal preferences, goals, and lifestyle. And some treatments are primarily cosmetic in nature, whereas others are restorative (with an improved appearance as a nice “side effect”).
Options to rebuild your one-of-a-kind smile
Patients in need of restorative dentistry may have broken, decayed teeth and diseased gums. These problems can present in the smile as pitted, discolored areas, puffy or swollen gums, teeth that look “long” as the gum tissue recedes, or as irregularly shaped teeth and surfaces. We partner with our patients to restore the appearance, functionality, comfort, and health of their smile – before disease, decay, or other oral problems altered how you look and how you feel.
We can also make your smile better than it was before. If you were always bothered by a big gap between your teeth, we may recommend porcelain or composite veneers to cover up the space. For more extensive spacing issues, orthodontic treatments such as Invisalign® or modern braces with tooth-colored brackets and wires, may be in order. If you always wanted whiter teeth, professional bleaching treatments can instantly amp up the brilliance and vitality of your smile.
Additional options that are as functionally sound and durable as they are natural in appearance, include:
- Tooth-colored fillings
- Inlays, onlays, and full-coverage porcelain crowns
- Bridges
- Partial dentures
- Complete dentures
- Dental implants to support a single tooth, several teeth, or an entire arch of upper and/or lower teeth
We look forward to reconstructing a brilliant smile that promotes lasting well-being. Contact us to schedule your consultation.
