Your Smile, Restored
Germantown Restorative Dentistry
Life gets busy, and our restorative services make it easy to repair damage, restore function, and bring your smile back to health.
Repair, Rebuild, and Renew Your Smile
At Germantown Smiles, we know how overwhelming dental concerns can feel, which is why we focus on creating a calm, supportive experience with solutions that can bring your natural smile back to its best.
Whether you’re feeling self-conscious about your teeth or dealing with discomfort or pressure, we offer thoughtful, effective care. Our restorative options include tooth colored fillings, inlays/onlays, crowns, bridges, implants restorations, partials and dentures.
Dr. Nishel Patel and our team will carefully evaluate your overall oral health and specific problem areas, then recommend personalized treatments designed to improve function, enhance comfort, and help you feel confident about your smile again.
Our Restorative Dentistry treatments include:
Tooth-Colored Fillings
A tooth filling repairs cavities, cracks, or chips, restoring a tooth’s shape and function while preventing pain and infection. Fillings can be composite or glass ionomer, and are placed by removing damaged areas and filling them to blend naturally with your teeth.
Crowns
Porcelain dental crowns from our cosmetic dentists strengthen and protect damaged teeth, and are often used to treat cracked teeth, gross decay or after root canal treatment. Crowns cover the entire tooth for a natural look and fit. After shaping the tooth, we do a digital scan and have a lab craft a custom, color-matched crown. Once bonded, it feels just like your natural tooth.
Bridges
A dental bridge is a natural-looking, long-lasting way to replace missing teeth. Using custom artificial teeth supported by nearby teeth or implants, it restores your smile, improves function, and prevents shifting. Designed for comfort and aesthetics, it blends in seamlessly and helps maintain oral health and confidence.
Full Mouth Restorations
Do you have a number of problems affecting your teeth? If so, a full mouth restoration may be a good option for your needs. This customized procedure combines a variety of treatments designed to improve multiple concerns and enhance both the function and appearance of your teeth.
Dentures & Partials
Through the use of dentures and partials, larger sections of missing teeth can be replaced and restored with natural-looking false teeth. Partials work to replace large sections of missing teeth, including an entire row and are removable. We also offer removable dentures to replace a full mouth of missing teeth.
Root Canal Therapy
A root canal treats an infected tooth pulp—the soft, nerve-filled core of a tooth—to relieve pain and prevent infection. Symptoms include severe tooth pain, sensitivity, swollen gums, discoloration, or recurring gum bumps. Treatment involves cleaning out the infected pulp, sealing the canals, and restoring the tooth with a crown.
Dental Implant Restorations
A dental implant restoration provides a stable, natural-looking solution for replacing missing teeth, whether you need a single screw-retained crown, multiple implants to support a bridge, or full-arch options like implant-retained partials and dentures.
Benefits of Restorative Dentistry
Restorative dentistry lets you chew and speak comfortably, protect your teeth, and restore a natural, confident smile.
