Restore Your Smile

Restore Your Smile

When a tooth is broken, missing, or worn down, restorative dentistry brings back the function and look of a healthy smile — usually in fewer visits than you'd expect.

Restorative care is what we do when something is already wrong — a cracked molar, a missing tooth, a filling that's failed, a smile that no longer chews comfortably. The goal isn't cosmetic perfection. It's getting your mouth back to doing its job: chewing, speaking, and resting without pain.

At our Scottsville office on West River Road, Dr. Azevedo and Dr. Lee handle most restorative work in-house — including implants, root canals, crowns, and dentures. That means fewer trips up to Charlottesville or Lynchburg, and one team that knows your full history.

Every plan starts with a careful look at the whole picture: what's bothering you, what's hidden on the x-rays, and what fits your budget and timeline. You'll leave the consult knowing exactly what's recommended, what it costs, and what your options are.

Why it matters

  • ✓Most procedures completed in-house — implants, root canals, crowns, dentures
  • ✓Two experienced dentists collaborating on complex cases
  • ✓Tooth-colored, natural-looking materials wherever possible
  • ✓Clear pricing and financing options discussed before any work begins

Questions we hear

How long does a typical restorative case take?+
It depends on the procedure. A filling is one visit. A crown is usually two. A full implant case can span a few months as the bone heals. We'll lay out the full timeline at your consult so there are no surprises.
Will I need to be referred to a specialist?+
Usually no. Dr. Azevedo and Dr. Lee complete most restorative work — including root canals and implant placement — in our Scottsville office. If a case truly needs a specialist, we'll tell you upfront and coordinate the referral.
What if I can't afford everything at once?+
We'll prioritize what needs to happen now versus what can wait, and walk through payment plans, CareCredit, and the Virginia Dental Club. The goal is a plan you can actually follow through on.
