While permanent teeth should ideally provide a lifetime of function, it doesn’t always end up that way for everyone. Teeth can become damaged and lost from an accident, decay, or gum disease. Since your smile starts out as a full set, even one missing tooth may affect the whole makeup of your mouth’s delicate balance.
When it’s time to restore damaged teeth or replace missing teeth, Dr. Omari Sheehy’s background in restorative dentistry can make the process highly efficient and effective. Contact our office today to learn more about our restorative services and schedule your next visit.

Composite fillings are a popular choice for repairing teeth affected by cavities or minor damage. Made from a durable, tooth-colored resin, composite fillings blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, making them an aesthetically pleasing option. They are also designed to bond directly to the tooth, providing extra strength and support while preserving as much of the natural tooth as possible.
Dental Crowns & Bridges
Dental crowns and bridges are restorative solutions for damaged or missing teeth. A crown is a cap that covers a damaged tooth, restoring its shape, size, and strength. Bridges, on the other hand, fill gaps left by missing teeth using crowns on either side of the gap for support. Both options improve oral function and appearance while protecting the integrity of your smile.
Root Canal Therapy
Root canal therapy is a treatment designed to save teeth that have become severely decayed or infected. During the procedure, the infected pulp is removed, and the tooth’s interior is cleaned and sealed to prevent further infection. A root canal can relieve pain, restore function, and preserve your natural tooth structure.
Full & Partial Dentures
Dentures are custom-made prosthetics that replace missing teeth, helping to restore your smile and improve your ability to speak and eat. Full dentures are used when all of the teeth in an arch are missing, while partial dentures replace several missing teeth and anchor to existing ones. Modern dentures are designed for a comfortable fit and natural appearance, allowing patients to speak, eat, and smile confidently.

Dental Implants
Dental implants are a long-lasting solution for replacing missing teeth. The implant consists of a titanium post surgically placed in the jawbone, which acts as an artificial tooth root. Once the post integrates with the bone, a crown is attached, creating a strong, natural-looking replacement tooth. Implants help maintain jawbone health and offer a permanent, stable alternative to dentures or bridges.
Dental Extractions
Dental extractions may be necessary when a tooth is severely damaged, decayed, or impacted. The procedure involves carefully removing the tooth to relieve pain, prevent infection, or make room for orthodontic treatment. While extractions are often a last resort, they can pave the way for improved oral health.
Wisdom Teeth Removal
Wisdom teeth removal is a common procedure to address impacted or problematic third molars. These teeth often lack adequate space to grow properly, leading to pain, overcrowding, or infection. Removing wisdom teeth can prevent future dental issues and ensure a healthier, more comfortable smile.
Bone Graft Procedures
Bone grafting is a technique used to rebuild and strengthen the jawbone, often in preparation for dental implants. When bone loss occurs due to tooth loss, trauma, or disease, grafting materials are added to encourage new bone growth. This procedure helps restore jawbone structure and ensures a stable foundation for future dental restorations.
