Restorative Dentistry FAQ

Common Questions

01 What restorative dental services do you offer?

We provide tooth-colored fillings, dental crowns, bridges, full and partial dentures, and dental implants. Our team can address single-tooth repairs as well as complete full-mouth reconstructions, all tailored to your bite, esthetic goals and long-term oral health.

02 Can you fix a broken or cracked tooth?

Yes. Treatment depends on how deep the damage goes. Small chips may need a tooth-colored filling or bonding, while larger fractures often require a crown. If the nerve is involved, a root canal followed by a crown is typically recommended. Call (706) 635-2218 for prompt evaluation.

03 How long do restorations last?

Tooth-colored fillings typically last 7 to 10 years, crowns and bridges 10 to 15 years or longer, and implants can last a lifetime with proper care. Daily brushing, flossing and regular cleanings at our East Ellijay office help your restorations last as long as possible.

04 Are dental implants right for me?

Implants are an excellent option for most healthy adults missing one or more teeth. Your dentist evaluates bone volume, gum health and overall medical status before recommending placement. For patients lacking adequate bone, we discuss alternatives or bone-grafting options at consultation.

05 Do you offer financing for restorative treatment?

Yes. We accept most major dental insurance plans, are in-network with Delta Dental, and offer financing through CareCredit and Cherry. Our team helps you understand benefits and out-of-pocket costs before treatment begins.

06 How long does treatment take?

Fillings are usually completed in one visit. Crowns and bridges typically require two visits over two to three weeks. Implant treatment involves placement followed by a healing period of three to six months before the final crown is delivered.
