Restorative Dentistry

You appear more likable, courteous, and competent to others when you smile, studies show. But as important as your smile is to how others see you, it is even more important to your self-image.

Our talented team at Lakeside Dentistry understand this. Our restorative dentists can repair your damaged teeth and replace your missing ones. But more important, they make you feel better about yourself!

Restorative Services at Lakeside Dentistry

Our restorative dentistry services include:

  • Tooth fillings. For teeth with cavities, our dentists will remove decay and place a sturdy filling to keep your teeth healthy.
  • Root canals. We remove infected material from the sensitive interior of your teeth, then seal your teeth to keep out further decay. Dr. Gores has decades of experience with this procedure and can make it as comfortable as possible for you.
  • Dental crowns and bridges. Metal-free dental crowns can repair and protect damaged teeth, while a dental bridge fills the gap left by a missing tooth.
    Inlays and onlays. Often called “partial crowns,” these can be used to repair deep cavities.
  • Dental veneers. Applied to your teeth, these thin, versatile restorations conceal many flaws, including chips, minor cracks, and more.
  • Dental implants. These versatile restorations can replace missing teeth and tooth roots by serving as a foundation for dental crowns, dental bridges, or dentures.

Dr. Lucy Meyer is a member of the American Dental Association, Minnesota Dental Association, and other local dental societies.
