Adult Crown Restorations
The process itself is relatively straightforward, and there are many situations where an adult crown restoration is necessary. These include tooth decay, as well as cracked or chipped teeth.
Crown restorations involve placing a porcelain or metal based ‘cap’ around the top of a damaged tooth. Preparation of the tooth may involve removal of decay followed by building the tooth back up with a filling material before shaping for the crown. Following an initial appointment to prepare the tooth and take impressions, a crown will be made for you at the dental laboratory. The final crown will be placed permanently at a subsequent appointment.
If you have a damaged or decayed tooth and would like to speak with an experienced local dentist in Glenpool, we would be happy to discuss your options and provide you with an overview of the crown restoration process.

Wisdom Teeth Extractions
If you are starting to develop problems with your wisdom teeth, this can be due to a number of reasons. Wisdom teeth have a tendency to grow at strange angles, and in some cases, there isn’t enough room in the mouth for them to develop and grow properly. Without the proper space to grow, this can cause nearby teeth to become crowded, with a potential for damage. Sometimes, they will only emerge partially, causing a nuisance passageway that can become a hotspot for infection and bacteria.
Wisdom teeth can also become impacted, and in this situation, they are essentially trapped within the jaw. This, again, is another situation that can result in infection or cause damage to surrounding roots.
If you need to discuss wisdom teeth extractions, the team at Glenpool Dentistry can help you decide on the best course of treatment for your individual situation. Oral conscious sedation is available and typically suggested in the line of treatment.
Prosthesis Treatments
Dentures & Partials
While it is ideal to retain natural teeth for as long as possible, there are many situations and reasons why patients might need to consider dentures or partials. Thankfully, due to the evolution of dentistry, full and partial dentures are both comfortable and discreet.
If you suffer from damaged or painful teeth, dentures could be a viable solution that can help you combat these issues while retaining a beautiful smile. If you are missing teeth, but still have some natural teeth that are healthy, a partial denture could give you a cost-effective solution to replacing missing teeth and restoring function.
If you are considering a partial or full denture, the team at Glenpool Dentistry can help you work through a range of options. It’s important to receive tailored guidance in order to help you make the best decision for your individual needs. We’re here to help you get clarity on the best solution for your future oral health.
