Bring back your healthy, strong smile with top restorative dentistry treatments in Woburn! Dr. Oliver Austria and our compassionate team at Radiant Dentistry of Woburn specialize in restorative dentistry services designed to repair or replace teeth that are damaged, decayed, or missing. From dental crowns to dental implants, our modern dental restorations are designed to revive the full function, comfort, and natural beauty of your smile.
Whether you're dealing with a simple cavity or need a more comprehensive solution for multiple missing teeth, we focus on long-lasting solutions that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. Our top restorative dentistry treatments in Woburn, MA include:
Dental Implants
We're proud to offer permanent dental implants, the most advanced and natural-looking solution for replacing missing teeth. A dental implant is essentially an artificial tooth root, typically made of biocompatible titanium, that is surgically placed into the jawbone. The implant then fuses with your bone over several months in a process called osseointegration. This creates a strong, stable foundation, much like a natural tooth root.
Once the fusion is complete, a small connector piece called an abutment is attached to the implant, extending slightly above the gum line. A custom-made, lifelike dental crown (or a bridge or denture) is then securely placed on top of the abutment. This entire process results in a replacement tooth that looks, feels, and functions just like your natural teeth.
All-on-4 Implants
With All-on-4® dental implants, an entire arch of prosthetic teeth is permanently secured onto just four (or sometimes more, like 6 or 8) precisely placed dental implants. These implants are strategically angled to maximize contact with existing bone, often minimizing or eliminating the need for bone grafting. The All-on-4 approach typically provides a fully functional, non-removable set of teeth, often in a single day, giving you the closest possible feel to natural teeth and helping to prevent further bone loss in the jaw. Dr. Austria will thoroughly evaluate your bone health and discuss which type of implant-supported denture is the most suitable and beneficial for your unique needs and lifestyle.
Removable Dentures
As a removable, cost-effective alternative to dental implants, Radiant Dentistry of Woburn offers partial and complete removable dentures. Removable dentures offer a flexible and effective method of replacing missing teeth to restore the function and appearance of the smile. We custom-design each denture for a natural look and comfortable feel! Our top denture options include:
- Complete removable dentures, designed to replace all teeth on the upper arch, lower arch, or both
- Partial removable dentures, designed to replace just a few missing teeth
- Immediate dentures, placed immediately after dental extractions, so you won't have to worry about being without teeth while your gums heal
Implant-Retained Dentures
At Radiant Dentistry of Woburn, implant-retained dentures offer the added strength of permanent dental implants for a strong, secure fit. Unlike conventional dentures that rest solely on your gums and can sometimes slip and cause discomfort, implant-supported dentures are securely anchored by a small number of strategically placed dental implants in the jawbone. Biocompatible titanium implants act as artificial tooth roots, providing a firm foundation for your denture. This added stability means you can eat, speak, and smile with greater confidence, enjoying a wider variety of foods and eliminating the need for messy denture adhesives.
Dental Bridges
Dental bridges offer a solution for missing teeth by literally "bridging" the gap created by missing teeth. A dental bridge consists of one or more artificial teeth (called pontics) that are held in place by dental crowns on the natural teeth or implants on either side of the gap. Dr. Oliver Austria designs custom bridges that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, helping you regain your ability to chew, speak, and smile with confidence, while also preventing your remaining teeth from shifting into the empty space.
We offer several types of dental bridges, including traditional dental bridges, Maryland bonded bridges, Cantilever bridges, and implant-supported bridges. Offering enhanced stability and longevity, an implant-supported bridge is anchored by dental implants instead of relying on natural teeth for support. This eliminates the need to alter healthy adjacent teeth and helps preserve bone density in the jaw.
Dental Crowns
At Radiant Dentistry of Woburn, dental crowns allow Dr. Oliver Austria to restore damaged or weakened teeth. Also called tooth "caps," dental crowns are custom-made coverings that fit entirely over the top of a compromised tooth, from the gum line up. They're essential for protecting a weak tooth from breaking, holding parts of a cracked tooth together, or restoring a tooth that's severely worn down or has a large filling. Crowns are also commonly used after a root canal to protect the treated tooth or as the final restoration on a dental implant.
Each dental crown is custom-crafted to match the shape, size, and color of your natural teeth. Our dental crowns are made with durable materials like ceramic, Zirconia, and BruxZir. Dr. Austria will discuss which type of crown material is best suited for your specific tooth, bite, and aesthetic goals, for beautiful, long-lasting results!
Dental Fillings
We offer high-quality dental fillings to effectively repair teeth affected by cavities, minor cracks, or chips. We understand that early intervention is key to preserving your natural smile, which is why we utilize durable, tooth-colored composite fillings that blend seamlessly with your existing teeth for restored strength and function.
