Restorative Dentistry
Lacey, WA
 You don't have to live with damage, discoloration or gaps when it comes to your teeth. There is a procedure that is right for you and your unique situation. From bridges, to dentures, to implants, we can help or point you in the right direction.
Dental fillings are used to restore areas of your tooth affected by decay. Brian K. Rounds, DDS uses both amalgam (silver) and composite (tooth-colored) materials to "fill in" the surface of the tooth after all decay has been removed.
Dental crowns are custom-made, tooth-shaped caps that completely cover the visible portion of a damaged or weakened tooth above the gum line. They serve multiple purposes, including protecting weak teeth from breaking, restoring already broken teeth, covering dental implants, and improving the appearance of misshapen or discolored teeth.
A dental bridge is a fixed prosthetic device used to replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring artificial teeth to adjacent natural teeth or dental implants. Dental bridges can be made from various materials such as porcelain, metal, or a combination of both, and they serve multiple purposes including restoring the ability to chew and speak properly, maintaining facial shape, and preventing remaining teeth from shifting out of position.
Dental implants are the closest dental restoration to your original teeth. They are natural-looking and provide the functionality of a normal tooth. Sometimes when an implant is placed, it will fail, but that isn’t the end of the story for most patients. At Brian K. Rounds, DDS, we offer dental implant rehabilitation, which aims to give those patients who have had implant failures a second chance at successful dental implants.
A "root canal," or endodontic therapy, is a procedure available to save a tooth that is infected and would otherwise require extraction. There are many reasons that teeth can become infected, including: cavities, previous large fillings, crowns, cracks, and trauma. |
