Restorative Dentistry
Our restorative dentistry services at a glance.
Healthy teeth are the most beautiful teeth! Poor hygiene, disease, genetics, and normal wear-and-tear are just a few reasons teeth can become damaged or unhealthy. As one of the top dentists in Columbia, SC, Dr. Griffin offers innovative services to restore smiles back to tip-top shape.
Our restorative dentistry services include:
The purpose of a dental implant is to replace the root of the tooth artificially. By doing this, the dental implant prevents bone loss and gum shrinkage that can occur when a tooth is missing.
Dr. Griffin is trained and experienced in performing the entire dental implant procedure. In most cases, this allows him to treat each patient from start to finish, rather than referring them out to a specialist. Because Dr. Griffin can control the entire process, patients experience better results with fewer appointments. That means fewer trips to the dentist!
Missing teeth may not only cause you to feel insecure, but may lead to countless oral health issues like TMD, poor bite, periodontal disease, and problems with chewing and speaking.
A bridge effectively repairs strength, function, and beauty after tooth loss. A dental bridge is composed of a series of dental crowns, suspended in the space left behind by a missing tooth or teeth, and firmly bonded to the remaining adjacent teeth.
Full mouth rehabilitation is a complex series of cosmetic, restorative, and sometimes neuromuscular treatments used to help you dramatically improve your smile. Dr. Griffin has the training, experience, and compassion needed to give you a beautiful, fully-functional, and healthy smile you can be proud of!
To see what full mouth rehabilitation can do for you, we invite you to take a look at our Smile Gallery and review the stunning results of our actual patients.
Gone are the days of unsightly metal; Dr. Griffin chooses to use metal-free fillings. If you suspect your tooth may need a filling, you’ll be pleased to know we only offer the strongest, most eye-pleasing materials available.
Metal-free fillings are composed of tooth-colored resin materials, allowing the restoration to blend naturally with the rest of your tooth and go unnoticed by others.
