Restorative Dentistry Services
While preventive dentistry is all about keeping your mouth and teeth healthy, and cosmetic dentistry is about restoring the appearance of your smile, restorative dentistry centers around replacing or fixing damaged and missing teeth and providing you with a healthy, revitalized oral situation.
Restorative dentistry services focus more on the function of your mouth, but many of these advanced services and technologies can also improve the appearance of your smile. Missing or damaged teeth can make it challenging to go about your daily life. You may have problems with things like eating or even speaking.
Luckily, restorative dentistry treatments at Torrey Dental will help you feel better and make your mouth healthy again. We provide a comprehensive range of restorative dentistry options, including crowns, dental implants, bridges, and more. Call today to learn more or to set up an appointment at our Pullman office!

Dental Fillings
When you get a cavity removed, a dental filling restores the tooth and fills up the small hole left behind.
At Torrey Dental, we ensure patient comfort during this process by using alloy-free fillings that are minimally invasive. We also use rubber dams during your treatment to ensure your tongue stays out of the way and that the process is as simple and clean as possible.
Dental Implants
Dental implants are the longest-lasting and most permanent option to replace missing or damaged teeth. While the process is a bit lengthier than other tooth restorations, dental implants can last a lifetime, bolster your jawbone health, and look and function just like your regular teeth.
Dental Crowns
A dental crown is a great option to restore the function and appearance of a damaged tooth. The dental crown is a cap that sits on top of your natural tooth (and that looks and feels like your natural teeth) to fix the shape and appearance of a damaged or worn down tooth. Dental crowns are a good option when you have minor to moderate damage on a tooth. These are often used in conjunction with dental implants to replace a fully missing or knocked-out tooth.
Dental Bridges
A dental bridge can restore a missing tooth. The bridge contains an artificial tooth. The apparatus attaches to the adjoining teeth, creating a bridge for the replacement tooth.
Dental bridges may be permanent or removable; however, they aren’t as permanent as dental implants, though they can be an affordable, lasting option for many patients.
Root Canal Therapy
At Torrey Dental, we offer root canal therapy for the anterior teeth to remove tooth infections or abscesses and restore your oral health. While we don’t do root canal therapy for molars, we will partner and work with specialists when needed to ensure you get the relief and care you deserve.
Implant-Supported Dentures
Implant-supported dentures are an alternative to traditional dentures. With implant dentures, as few as four dental implants can support an entire arch of teeth so you can restore most or all of your teeth with minimal dental implants. This process is known as the All-on-X procedure.
We also provide removable and conventional implants, as those may be a better option for some patients.
Emergency Dental Services
Dental emergencies can happen anytime—and usually when it’s most inconvenient. If you’re dealing with sudden pain, a mouth injury, or other emergency dental situations, we can help.
Give us a call when you’re having a dental emergency for prompt assistance!
