Customized Solutions for Every Smile
No two smiles are alike. Dr. Nord takes the time to diagnose your specific needs and recommend the most conservative treatment option that provides long-lasting results. Our restorative services include:
Tooth-Colored Fillings
Gone are the days of noticeable metal fillings. We use durable composite resins that are color-matched to your natural tooth shade. These fillings bond directly to your tooth, preserving more natural structure while seamlessly repairing cavities and minor chips.
Dental Crowns
When a tooth is cracked, heavily decayed, or weakened by a root canal, a dental crown provides 360-degree protection. Our crowns are custom-crafted to blend perfectly with your smile, aiming to restore both the strength and appearance of your natural tooth.
Dental Bridges
A dental bridge is a time-tested solution for replacing one or more missing teeth in a row. By anchoring to neighboring healthy teeth (or implants), a bridge literally “bridges the gap” in your smile, preventing other teeth from shifting and restoring your ability to chew properly.
Implant Restoration
Dental implants are considered the gold standard for tooth replacement. According to the American Dental Association, they offer the most natural-looking and long-lasting solution for missing teeth. While specialists place the implant post, Dr. Nord expertly designs and places the final restoration (the crown, bridge, or denture) that attaches to the implant, giving you a replacement tooth that functions just like the real thing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does restorative dentistry hurt?
We do everything possible to ensure your comfort. We use effective local anesthesia to numb the area completely before we begin. Dr. Nord is known for her gentle technique, and we offer amenities to help you relax during your procedure.
How long do crowns and fillings last?
With proper care, composite fillings typically last 7-10 years, while crowns can last 15 years or more. The longevity of your restoration depends largely on your oral hygiene habits. Brushing, flossing, and regular cleanings are essential for protecting your investment.
Do you accept insurance for these procedures?
Yes. Most dental insurance plans cover a significant portion of restorative procedures (often 50-80%). We are happy to file claims on your behalf and will provide you with a detailed cost estimate before beginning any treatment.
