Repair a Damaged Smile with Restorative Dentistry

If you are missing teeth, our dentist in Lutcher, LA, can place BioHorizons® titanium dental implants to help restore your smile with unmatched strength. Implants are tiny metal posts surgically embedded in the jaw to serve as artificial tooth roots. After the implants have fused with the surrounding bone, they can provide a lifetime of support for dental crowns, bridges, and dentures. For patients with extensive tooth loss, we can use the All-on-4® technique to support a complete or partial denture with just four strategically placed implants.

We offer ClearCorrect™invisible braces for patients who want to achieve straight teeth without the use of uncomfortable brackets and wires. With ClearCorrect™, patients wear a set of clear plastic trays that have been custom-made to gradually align their teeth. Since the aligners are made of smooth, transparent plastic, they will be comfortable and virtually invisible to others. In addition to being discreet, ClearCorrect™ invisible braces are removable, allowing you to enjoy your favorite foods and continue your normal oral hygiene routines.

If you have a badly decayed tooth or a wisdom tooth that is likely to be impacted, Dr. Phillips can perform surgical tooth extractions to preserve your oral health. Furthermore, patients who do not qualify for dental implants because of insufficient jawbone density can undergo a bone graft or sinus lift procedure to improve their candidacy. At many other practices, patients are referred to an outside specialist for surgical treatments.
