Restorative Dentistry
The Life-Changing Benefits of Restorative Dentistry
Improved Oral Health
If you have tooth decay or gum disease, your oral health is at risk. These issues can cause pain, discomfort, and quickly spread to surrounding teeth and gums. Restorative dentistry repairs your teeth and prevents dental problems from progressing.
Restored Function
Damaged or missing teeth can make daily tasks like eating or speaking a challenge. Do you avoid certain foods or have trouble enunciating words? With restorative care, our dentist can fill gaps in your smile and strengthen natural teeth so you no longer have to worry.
Higher Self-Esteem
While the health benefits of restorative dentistry are clear, patients can also enjoy a higher level of self-esteem after receiving treatment. By addressing missing or damaged teeth, many patients achieve a healthier-looking smile that makes them feel more confident.

I am so pleased with my implants. Dr. Collier is excellent and has great bedside manner. His staff and his assistants are awesome. He wanted everything to be perfect even if that meant having an extra visit. I was very impressed with his credentials when I was doing my research for an implant specialist and I’m glad that I chose Southern Dental Implant Center.

Nervous about the Dentist? We Offer Sedation Dentistry
Oral Conscious Sedation
Oral conscious sedation involves taking a pill before the procedure to induce a dreamlike state. Patients will need someone to drive them to our Cordova office and back home, as the drowsiness will last a few hours.
IV Sedation
For IV sedation, medication is administered directly into the bloodstream to induce a deep state of relaxation. Patients have no recollection of their treatment. Dr. Collier is trained and certified to safely administer this type of anesthesia.

Dental Implants and Smile XZ
Dental implants are the most trusted and reliable tooth replacement solution to date. Implants are inserted into the jaw and mimic tooth roots, acting as a strong foundation for a crown, denture, or bridge. With proper care and maintenance, dental implants can last a lifetime. Dr. Collier is specially trained to place implants and can perform any preparatory procedures needed, such as a bone graft or a sinus lift.
Dentures
For people who have lost most of their teeth or an entire arch of teeth, our Cordova practice offers full, partial, and implant-supported dentures. Dentures restore a patient's ability to chew and speak with confidence, in addition to preventing sagging of the lips and cheeks by maintaining the natural contours of the face and jaw. When attached to dental implants, dentures also help prevent the extensive bone loss associated with missing teeth.
Dental Crowns
Dental crowns are a versatile dental solution that can address a range of issues such as a broken or chipped tooth, or provide protection after root canal therapy. Crowns act as caps over the tooth, sealing it from bacteria and providing structural support. Our crowns are made from the same stunning material as our porcelain to ensure natural-looking results that are indistinguishable from your real teeth.
Dental Bridges
If you're missing one or more consecutive teeth, a dental bridge may be the restorative option for you. Dental bridges include one or more artificial teeth attached to the adjacent teeth with porcelain dental crowns. Dental bridges can correct problems with chewing and speaking while increasing your bite strength. In addition to traditional bridges, we can also use dental implants for unbeatably sturdy results.
Dental Fillings
Dental fillings are the most common and most conservative procedure in restorative dentistry. Fillings are used to address cavities and prevent decay from spreading to the rest of the tooth or to surrounding teeth. Our dentist uses tooth-colored fillings to match the color of your teeth for seamless results. It is crucial to get a filling as soon as possible, as extensive decay can lead to the need for a root canal in the future.
