Get the complete, functional smile you deserve with restorative dentistry at Prickly Pear Family Dental! Dr. McKenney and her team understand the impact damaged or lost teeth can have on your health and confidence. To help you reclaim your ability to speak, smile and eat with confidence and ease, our team offers top restorative dentistry services in Prescott, AZ and beyond.
Our advanced dental restorations include:
Dental Fillings
Dental fillings can be used to fix cavities and correct other minor problems with your teeth, including minor chips or fractures. To repair a cavity or a chipped tooth, our team offers tooth-colored fillings designed to blend with the rest of your natural smile.
Dental Bridges
At Prickly Pear Family Dental, we offer several ways to replace missing teeth. Dental bridges offer a budget-friendly alternative to dental implants or dentures. A bridge can replace a single missing tooth, or several teeth in a row. Each dental bridge uses one or more prosthetic teeth that become permanently fixed in the mouth to "bridge" the gap in your smile.
Each dental bridge may be secured by dental crowns or implants to ensure your results last!
Same-Day Dental Crowns
At our dental office in Prescott, AZ, we use CEREC technology to offer same-day dental crowns for our patients. This means you can repair minor tooth damage and decay with a durable dental crown on the very same day as your dentist appointment! CEREC allows our team to create durable, custom-made dental crowns that seal and repair damaged teeth.
Dental Implants
To permanently restore your smile from tooth loss, Dr. McKenney offers dental implants that replace missing teeth from top to bottom, including the tooth root. To place each dental implant, our dentist implants a titanium post within the jawbone. This encourages healthy jaw bone growth around the implant, promoting a strong jawbone and sturdy replacement teeth. Your implant will be topped with a replacement tooth that is custom-shaded to match your smile.
Using guided implant placement, Dr. McKenney replaces lost teeth with enhanced precision. Dental implants are designed to look, feel, and function just like your natural teeth. They're also designed to last for life!
Most patients are good candidates for dental implants, but if the gums or jaws are not strong or healthy enough to support a dental implant, Dr. McKenney may recommend a gum or bone graft surgery. At your implant consultation, our dentist will take time to go over your health history and cover all the information you need to move forward with your tooth replacement procedure with dental implants.
Full and Partial Dentures
Prickly Pear Family Dental offers full and partial removable dentures to patients who have experienced tooth loss. We create custom-made dentures for comfortable, natural-looking smile restoration.
While partial dentures are designed to replace several missing teeth, complete dentures can replace all teeth on the upper and/or lower arches. Unlike dental implants, full and partial dentures are not permanent and can be removed when it's time to go to sleep.
Root Canal Therapy
Root canal therapy can be performed to remove infected areas of the soft, inner section of the tooth known as the pulp. Infections within the pulp can be painful and damaging when left untreated. Root canal treatment can save the tooth and allow for proper healing and strengthening of the tooth.
Dr. McKenney works to detect when root canal therapy is needed early on before infection has the chance to spread.
After treatment of the infection, the tooth will be sealed with a strong, natural-looking dental crown. Prickly Pear Family Dental uses CEREC technology to provide patients with same-day dental crowns, custom restorations that are crafted in-house on the very same day as your root canal treatment.
Dental Inlays & Onlays
For patients with a cavity or tooth damage that is too big for a filling, but not large enough for a crown, Dr. McKenney offers dental inlays and onlays. These restorations are custom-made to restore the shape and health of the damaged tooth. Each inlay or onlay is custom-made from durable materials like composite resin, ceramic, and gold, designed to blend in with the structure of your natural tooth.
At your dental exam, our team will determine the best inlay or onlay restoration for you based on the location of the tooth damage.
