RESTORATIVE DENTISTRY IN BALTIMORE COUNTY
With our restorative dentistry services, we aim to keep you on track with the fully functional smile of your dreams. Baltimore Dental Co. will provide high-quality restorations while maintaining absolute comfort. When it comes to your restorative needs, we are here to provide solutions that support your whole-body health.
BPA-FREE METAL-FREE DENTAL FILLINGS
Long-term whole-body health is important to us! This is why we exclusively place BPA-free, metal-free fillings and crowns. BPA-free fillings are beneficial because they eliminate exposure to bisphenol A (BPA), a chemical that has been associated with various health risks. Using BPA- free restoration materials reduces the risk of these adverse health outcomes, ensuring a safer option for our patients. Additionally, BPA-free materials provide comparable durability and effectiveness in dental restorations, making them a prudent choice for both health and functionality.
DENTAL CROWNS
Dental crowns are a great solution for patients who have experienced considerable dental damage. Deep chips or cracks cause more than just cosmetic concerns and will eventually affect the functionality of your smile. To help with this, your affected tooth can be modified and replaced with a prosthetic cap, known as a dental crown. Patients love our dental crowns because they offer a simple solution to a difficult situation. To learn more about the dental crown process, see Dental Crowns.
DENTAL BRIDGES
Dental bridges are an alternative approach to tooth replacement. They use the support of your surrounding teeth to hold a prosthetic tooth in place of the missing tooth. Though dental bridges are a great option for tooth replacement, they do come with restrictions and oral hygiene requirements that must be taken into consideration when determining what is best for your long- term health. To learn more about the dental bridge process, see Dental Bridges.
DENTAL IMPLANTS
Dental implants are the premier option when it comes to single tooth or multiple teeth replacement. This restorative option allows patients to replace missing teeth with a crown that is supported by a titanium post. A dental implant will completely restore your missing tooth’s look, feel, and functionality.
Dr. Romay brings an additional year of dental education specifically focused on prosthodontic training to Baltimore Dental Co. This allows her to provide advanced treatment techniques and outstanding results to her patients. To learn more about how the dental implant process can help you achieve a healthy, functional smile, see Dental Implants.
DENTURES AND PARTIALS
A denture or partial prosthetic is an excellent option to consider when you are facing multiple missing teeth. They are an alternative treatment to implants or used as provisional teeth replacements while waiting for definitive restorations. If you are considering this restorative treatment option, learn more on our Dentures and Partials Page.
RESTORATIVE DENTISTRY FAQS
Baltimore Dental Co. helps patients return functionality and aesthetic to their smile. If you suffer from complex dental problems, we can help you regain your oral health. To learn more about restorative dental care, read through our frequently asked questions about restorative dentistry.
WHAT SHOULD I DO AFTER TOOTH RESTORATION?
Your only restrictions after most restorations will be related to the local anesthesia. While numb, it is very easy to bite your check or tongue without realizing. This tissue damage can be quite uncomfortable once the anesthesia has subsided, so it is best to avoid chewing until the anesthesia has subsided.
HOW LONG WILL I BE NUMB?
The length of time that you will be numb depends on the type of dental anesthesia, location of delivery, and how quickly your body metabolizes. If you are concerned about being numb, let us know. We offer our patients a reversal agent that will have you quickly feeling back to normal!

MY TEETH ARE BAD. SHOULD I JUST GET DENTURES?
The short answer is, probably not. Natural teeth are unparalleled and once they have been removed, the jawbone is not stimulated to remain in place. This will cause the bone to recede which will result in a low ridge. The ridge is the area in the mouth that a denture hugs and if it is too short, the denture will rock and move.
In specific scenarios, dentures can be a great option. If you are considering dentures, know that you have many options. When meeting the Baltimore Dental Co. team, we will review all your treatment options so that you can make the most beneficial decision concerning your dental health.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PARTIALS AND DENTURES?
A full denture is a plate the replaces all the teeth on either the top or the bottom arch. A partial denture will replace the missing teeth while leaving room for the natural teeth that are still present. Both partial and full dentures can be made with different materials and are cared for in similar ways. In order to know which type of appliance is best for you, schedule an appointment with us!
