Restorative dentistry focuses on addressing dental issues, including tooth decay, cracked or chipped teeth, missing teeth, and worn-down teeth. We offer several types of restorations to restore function and health to your teeth, including fillings, crowns, bridges, dentures, implants, root canals, and more.
If something is wrong inside your mouth, Dr. James Kiehl and the Southcoast Dental team will provide you with an accurate diagnosis and a personalized dental reconstruction plan in Wareham, MA. Our team always explains treatment options thoroughly so you can make an informed decision about the best course of action.
Severe tooth decay or cavities impacting eating and speaking
Missing teeth resulting in jawbone deterioration or bite collapse
Advanced gum disease that threatens oral health
Worn, cracked, or eroded teeth leading to reduced chewing efficiency
Misaligned or uneven bites are associated with TMJ dysfunction and pain
Full mouth reconstruction in Wareham, MA, isn’t foremost about how your smile looks—the goal of customized restorative treatment is to improve how your mouth functions daily. Proper chewing, speaking, and swallowing are essential for good nutrition, clear communication, and overall comfort. Therefore, when these functions are compromised, the effects can be felt throughout the entire body.
Untreated issues, such as missing teeth, bite misalignment, or gum disease, can limit what you eat, strain your jaw, and contribute to chronic oral inflammation that can affect systemic health concerns. A balanced bite helps distribute forces evenly, reducing stress on your jaw joints and muscles, which can help prevent TMJ dysfunction, headaches, and facial pain.
Crowns and bridges are a highly effective dental reconstruction option to restore function to weakened or broken teeth. At Southcoast Dental, we offer CEREC® crowns and bridges milled from a solid block of zirconia, thereby eliminating the need for messy impressions and temporary crowns. Each restoration is custom-crafted to fit comfortably and function naturally with your bite.
SureSmile® clear aligners offer a subtle and comfortable method for straightening your teeth without metal brackets or wires. The removable trays are designed for comfort and convenience while guiding your smile into proper alignment. Because they're nearly invisible and removable, you can properly brush and floss your teeth and eat the foods you love during treatment.
Dental implants in Wareham, MA, provide a permanent solution for tooth loss by replacing both the tooth crowns and roots. Whether you're missing one tooth or need a full-arch solution, implants offer unsurpassed versatility and longevity. After the implant posts fuse with your underlying bone, this advanced solution delivers exceptional stability, prevents bone loss, and mimics the appearance and feel of natural teeth.
Full dentures—often called complete dentures—replace an entire arch of missing teeth. They consist of natural-looking artificial teeth set in an acrylic base that's custom-shaded and contoured to blend in seamlessly with your gums. Partial dentures replace several missing teeth with false teeth secured to a discreet metal or acrylic framework that attaches comfortably to remaining natural teeth.
We understand dental pain can cause physical and emotional distress, and the thought of surgery can be daunting. Our team combines the latest techniques and technology with a compassionate touch to ensure safe, optimal, and reassuring oral surgery procedures. When it comes to tooth extractions, bone grafting, and dental implants, Dr. Kiehl goes above and beyond to deliver a gentle and seamless journey to renewed oral health.
Restorative dentistry at Southcoast Dental focuses on restoring teeth to a healthy condition. Cosmetic dentistry improves the appearance of your teeth.
Most of the time, if you have a damaged or missing tooth, you’ll need a restorative procedure. Dental insurance plans often cover all or part of restorative services, but they don’t typically cover cosmetic services because they’re considered optional.
Fillings go into a decayed area of your tooth, protecting it from further decay and restoring the function of the tooth.
A crown is a durable cap that covers and protects a severely damaged tooth. We can create a crown that looks and acts just like a normal tooth.
If you are missing teeth, we can make a metal bridge holding replacement teeth. It is anchored on crowns that cover the two teeth at the sides of the gap.
A dental implant is a metal rod or screw that acts like a tooth root in your jaw. After it is surgically positioned and allowed to heal, we can attach a replacement tooth or a bridge of teeth to the implant.
Full or partial dentures replace your missing teeth. The dentures are removable and customized to fit your mouth.
