- Dental SealantsDrs. Campbell and Sparks recommend dental sealants, which are very thin coatings used to fill in deep grooves and pits in teeth that can harbor bacteria. Sealants are applied to healthy chewing surfaces of the teeth to prevent decay and cavities, especially among children. According to the Centers for Disease Control, tooth decay affects more than half of children ages 6-8, and even older children and teens. By applying sealants, families can prevent decay and save on the costs associated with filling cavities. If you plan to get sealants, the CDC recommends doing so shortly after the molars have erupted from the gums, usually beginning around age 6.
- FillingsComposite fillings, also known as tooth-colored fillings, are dental restorations designed to blend well with teeth and appear more natural than dark amalgam fillings. Tooth-colored fillings can be used to repair chipped or broken teeth in addition to filling in decayed areas or cavities. Composite fillings are durable, require less tooth structure removal than amalgam or silver fillings and because they are aesthetically pleasing, can be used as a cosmetic bonding material to improve the appearance of front teeth.
- Resin CompositeDuring your visit, your gums and teeth will be anesthetized with a local anesthetic near the site of the filling. Next, your dentist will use an instrument to remove the damaged or decayed portion of your tooth. A gel is applied to clean out lingering debris or bacteria and the composite resin filling is inserted into the prepared tooth. The filling is then shaped and polished. The process is quick, easy and relatively pain-free.
- VeneersCeramic crowns are dental restorations used to replace or restore broken, worn or partially damaged teeth. Cosmetically, crowns improve the appearance of chipped, misshapen and heavily stained or discolored teeth. If you have an uneven smile or damaged teeth that make you feel self-conscious, dental crowns or veneers can restore your teeth and provide a beautiful and natural appearance.
- CrownsA dental implant and ceramic crown is an excellent option for replacing a single tooth. Dental implants are effective because unlike removable partials and tooth-retained bridges they do not require attachment to adjacent teeth. Dental implants help preserve and support healthy bone and are natural in appearance.
- BridgesAt Norman Smile Center, Drs. Campbell and Sparks are passionate about helping patients who are missing teeth restore and maintain healthy oral function. They offer advanced experience, technology, and techniques necessary to provide durable ceramic crowns and bridges that look and feel just like your natural teeth.

- Restorative DentistryYour teeth are yours for life and you ask a lot of them. Even with the best dental care and oral hygiene routine your teeth may need to be repaired or even replaced. Not repairing or replacing damaged or missing teeth can lead to significant damage down the road affecting many aspects of your oral health. Restorative dentistry ensures your mouth retains the proper structure, function and appearance.
- Root Canal TreatmentCeramic crowns are made of a tooth-colored ceramic material that is cemented over the tooth. It completely covers the tooth to protect its structure from further damage. They are also effective for restoring teeth that are worn, teeth that have had a root canal, or have had a cavity that is too large to be fixed with a composite filling.
- DenturesIf you want your dentures to last a long time, proper care is necessary. A few simple steps will keep your dentures healthy and fresh for years to come.
- Dental ImplantsDental implants offer a wide range of benefits for patients who are missing teeth, but in order for them to mimic proper jaw and teeth functionality; they must be placed carefully and correctly. Key factors that determine if you are a candidate for dental implants include: adequate natural bone density to support the implants, healthy gum tissue, and good overall health, to ensure proper healing. Dr. Campbell at Norman Smile Center is experienced in the biological, technical, and anatomical aspects of proper dental implant placement, using the most advanced imaging technology to develop the right placement plan for you.
