Restorations
Offered since 1991
Bethesda Dental Care offers a full range of dental restorations in Bethesda to rebuild your smile’s health, function, and appearance. Dr. Herman provides personalized solutions—from tooth-colored fillings and crowns to bridges and dentures—so you can eat comfortably, speak clearly, and smile confidently again.
Tooth-Colored Fillings
When cavities or small cracks threaten your teeth, we repair them with composite resin fillings that match your tooth color. These fillings bond tightly to your enamel and blend in naturally, so no one will notice you’ve had a cavity filled. The procedure is quick and routine: Dr. Herman will gently remove the decay and place the durable, tooth-colored resin, restoring strength to your tooth while keeping your smile metal-free.
Natural-Looking Crowns
For teeth with more extensive damage or after root canal therapy, a crown provides full-coverage protection. We offer beautiful porcelain crowns that are custom-crafted to mimic the shape and shade of your surrounding teeth. Thanks to our one-visit crown technology, you can often get your permanent crown in a single appointment, sparing you the hassle of temporary crowns. A well-fitted crown will reinforce your tooth for the long term and look as natural as can be.
Fixed Bridges
If you’re missing a tooth (or a couple in a row), a dental bridge is a reliable way to fill the gap. A bridge uses the healthy teeth on either side of the space as anchors for one or more artificial teeth in between. Our bridges are made of high-quality, lifelike materials to restore your ability to chew and smile confidently. With a fixed bridge, you won’t have to worry about neighboring teeth shifting, and you’ll regain a complete smile without a removable appliance.
Complete & Partial Dentures
For patients who have lost many or all of their teeth, we offer custom dentures to bring back your smile. A complete denture replaces a full arch of teeth, while a partial denture clasps onto remaining teeth to fill in multiple gaps. We take great care in designing dentures that fit comfortably and look natural. For added stability, we can also incorporate dental implants to secure your dentures, giving you more biting power and confidence.
Rebuilding Function & Confidence
Our restorative treatments are all about helping you enjoy life with a full set of healthy teeth again. By repairing or replacing problematic teeth, we enable you to bite and chew without pain, savor your favorite foods, and speak clearly. Just as importantly, we restore the appearance of your smile, boosting your confidence in social and professional settings. Life is simply better when you have strong, reliable teeth!
Personalized Care & Options
Every patient’s situation is unique, and we believe you deserve a say in your treatment. Dr. Herman will explain all the viable restorative options for your case—whether it’s different materials, techniques, or alternatives like implants. We take a conservative, honest approach, recommending only what’s necessary to achieve lasting oral health. You’ll never feel pressured; instead, we empower you with information and respect your decisions. Our goal is to work with you to find the solution that best fits your needs, budget, and lifestyle.
