Restorative Dentistry in Palmdale and Lancaster, CA
-
Dental Bridges
Dental bridges are used to replace one or multiple consecutive missing teeth. A traditional dental bridge is removable and supported by natural teeth topped with dental crowns. You can also get a fixed dental bridge supported by two dental implants instead of natural teeth. -
Dental Crowns
Dental crowns are one of the most versatile treatment options a dentist has. They can repair damaged teeth, stabilize a tooth after a root canal, and serve as the most common final restoration for a dental implant. -
Dental Implants
Premier Dental Care and Implant Centers in Palmdale and Lancaster, CA, offer comprehensive services for the placement of all types of dental implants. Dr. Naguib is a leading local dentist for implant dentistry and a member of the American Academy of Implant Dentistry (AAID). Dental implants are the gold standard for replacing missing teeth. The base of an implant is a titanium post that’s placed in the jawbone and fuses with it. An abutment is used to attach the implant to a final restoration. Implants can support a dental crown, fixed bridge, or permanent denture. -
Dentures and Partials
Partial dentures replace a row of missing teeth, while full dentures replace an entire arch of missing teeth. Traditional dentures are removable and adhere to the gums with denture adhesive. Implant dentures use dental implants to secure a fixed denture. -
Inlays and Onlays
Inlays and onlays are for situations that require more than a dental filling but not a full dental crown. They treat damage or decay on larger areas of the tooth’s surface. Onlays are used to take care of large stretches of the tooth’s surface, while inlays are used between the tooth's cusps. -
Periodontal Therapy
Gum disease is one of the most common dental issues in adults today. What starts as mild inflammation of the gum tissue becomes an infection that creates pockets in the gums and can even lead to tooth loss. We treat mild forms of the disease with techniques like scaling and root planing. For severe cases, we typically recommend grafting or other surgical procedures. -
TMJ Treatment
Temporomandibular joint disorders impact the jaw joint and its function. You may notice symptoms such as jaw pain, headaches, cracking and popping sounds, and an inability to fully open your jaw. We help determine the root cause of your specific TMJ case and create a treatment plan to address it.
Patient Review
I just love love love this dental office. I came in just randomly because I had bad tooth pain and losing teeth as well! This place hooked me up. I have NEVER in my life been to such a wonderful dentist office. Dr Naguib is by far THE BEST! The office staff is THE BOMB! So friendly and so welcoming! They are definitely MY GIRLS! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Restorative Dental FAQs
Do you want to know more about restorative dentistry? Read answers to common questions patients have about restoring their smile:
Why is it important to restore missing teeth?
Patients who have one or more missing teeth are prone to problems such as:
- Difficulty eating
- Speech issues
- Tooth decay
- Gum disease
- Further bone loss
If you have just lost a permanent tooth or are losing teeth due to a dental infection, please contact one of our dental offices. We will help you find the best option to restore your smile.
Am I a candidate for dental implant treatment?
Most patients are good candidates for dental implants, an implant-secured dental bridge, or a denture. We will examine your smile before dental implant treatment to determine whether you require gum disease treatment or bone grafting.
The best candidates for dental implant treatment have healthy teeth or gums and enough bone tissue to support the dental implant posts. However, we can recommend treatments to ensure your candidacy for restorative treatment.
Do implant-secured dental bridges and dentures last longer than removable options?
Yes, dental implants provide strength and stability to dental bridges and dentures. Because implants fuse with the jawbone, they provide a strong foundation for dental prosthetics. Dental implants that support bridges and dentures last longer than their removable counterparts.
What is the main cause of TMJ?
There is no one main cause for TMJ disorder. TMJ problems can stem from many factors. Some main causes are facial or jaw trauma, arthritis, bruxism, stress, and teeth misalignment. There are also times when the case of a patient’s TMJ disorder is unclear. It’s important to consult with a dental professional or specialist if you’re experiencing TMJ-related symptoms.
Is it too late to save my gums?
It is never too late to start saving your gums. You should visit a periodontist or dentist to start a treatment plan. Gingivitis is a reversible form of gum disease that a periodontist or dentist can cure. And even though there is no direct cure for advanced gum disease, a periodontist can put you on a more extensive treatment plan to help you manage it. Additionally, brushing and flossing your teeth twice and using an antibacterial mouthwash can help prevent further gum issues.
How long do an inlay and an onlay last?
An inlay and onlay typically last anywhere from 10 to 30 years. The longevity will also depend on the materials the dental technician used to make them, your oral hygiene habits, and the location of the restoration in your mouth. Additionally, these treatments allow your dentist to remove less healthy tooth structure than traditional fillings. Inlays and onlays treatment offers better support for surrounding teeth. You should maintain good oral hygiene and attend regular dental checkups and cleanings to increase your lifespan.
