Restoring the smile and keeping it looking great is important to Dr. Christopher Lim at Hillside Dental in the Las Vegas area. He understands that many patients want to repair the function and health of the smile while also ensuring it looks beautiful. This is why he offers restorative cosmetic dentistry to patients in the community. This may include some of the following services:
Replacing teeth can be done economically with dentures. Full and partial dentures are available at Hillside Dental and can be used for most any patient. Partial dentures are fabricated with metal and acrylic framework while full dentures are made strictly of acrylic. They are made to look natural, fit great, and allow patients to speak and eat with confidence.
A crown can be used in many circumstances. Some patients have them placed over teeth that are broken or weak, while other patients have them complete a dental implant to act as a tooth replacement. They are fabricated from porcelain and look just like natural teeth when created by our quality dental laboratory.
Bridges are porcelain restorations that Dr. Christopher Lim may use to replace one or more teeth in a row. They use the surrounding teeth for support and can be a wonderful option for individuals who are seeking an affordable approach to restorative dentistry.
When problems arise within a tooth, some patients may require root canal therapy, also referred to as endodontic therapy. This procedure removes the inner portion of the tooth, called the dental pulp, and then seals it off to keep bacteria from reentering. Often, a dentist will also place a dental crown over the tooth as an extra layer of protection.
Dr. Christopher Lim of Hillside Dental can also replace older dental work so it looks its absolute best. This includes replacing bridges, crowns, fillings, and other treatments that have been done in the past. At Hillside Dental, we offer a wide range of treatments that can help patients through the process of repairing their smile while making it appear its absolute best.
