Advanced Care From a Chicago Restorative Dentist

Repairing damaged
teeth and restoring how your smile works

When a tooth is cracked, decayed, or worn down, it affects more than appearance. It can change the way you chew, speak, and feel about your smile.

As your Chicago restorative dentist, Dr. Anthony King repairs damaged and missing teeth and rebuilds function so that everyday routines feel comfortable again. Care is planned around what your smile truly needs, with each step explained clearly before treatment begins.

Common Questions

What does a Chicago restorative dentist treat?

A Chicago restorative dentist repairs teeth that are decayed, cracked, worn, or missing. At Private Dental Services, that includes fillings, crowns, bridges, same-day crowns, and more comprehensive treatment for complex cases.

How long do crowns and fillings last?

With good home care and regular checkups, tooth-colored fillings and crowns can last many years. Materials like porcelain and zirconia are chosen for durability, and we review each restoration at your routine visits.

Can a damaged tooth be saved instead of replaced?

Often, yes. Dr. King’s approach is to repair a tooth whenever it is possible to do so. If a tooth cannot be saved, we will explain replacement options, including bridges and implants.

What if my tooth pain is urgent?

If you are dealing with a broken tooth, swelling, or sudden sensitivity, our team offers same-day appointments whenever possible. See our emergency care options for what to do next.

Do you also straighten teeth?

Yes. Alongside restorative care, we provide orthodontic treatment for teens and adults. During an evaluation, we can discuss how restorative and orthodontic care might work together.

Restorative treatments we provide

Restorative dentistry covers the procedures that repair teeth and replace what is missing. At our Chicago office, treatment is planned with digital scans and imaging so restorations fit precisely and last.

Dental implants

For a tooth that is missing rather than damaged, a dental implant replaces it from the root up. A small titanium post is placed in the jaw to act as an artificial tooth root, then restored with a custom crown that looks and functions like a natural tooth — a stable, long-term solution that does not rely on the neighboring teeth.

Full arch reconstruction

When most or all of the teeth in an arch are missing, worn, or failing, treatment can be combined into a single comprehensive plan. Full arch reconstruction rebuilds the smile step by step to restore comfortable function and a natural appearance.

Same-day crowns

Using digital scanning and in-office fabrication, certain crowns can be designed and placed in a single visit. This is made possible by the same digital workflow we use throughout the practice, which removes the need for traditional impressions and temporary crowns in many cases.

Tooth-colored fillings

When decay is removed, the tooth is restored with a tooth-colored composite filling that blends with the surrounding enamel. This restores the tooth’s structure while keeping its natural appearance.

Dental crowns

A crown covers and protects a tooth that is cracked, heavily decayed, or weakened after a large restoration. We use durable materials such as porcelain and zirconia so the crown holds up to normal chewing forces while matching your natural teeth.

Bridges

A dental bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by anchoring a replacement tooth to the teeth on either side of the gap, restoring your ability to chew and speak.

Rebuilding more complex cases

When several teeth are damaged or missing, restorative treatment may be combined into a larger plan. For patients missing one or more teeth, dental implants offer a stable, long-term replacement, and more extensive cases may be addressed through full-arch restoration.

PATIENT STORIES
 

Don’t just take our word for it

"

“Dr. King has been my dentist since 2021. He’s friendly with his staff and patients. I don’t get the assembly line feeling I used to get at some large practices. I have also not felt pressured for any unnecessary dental work. The hygienists are kind, professional, and capable. I have sensitive teeth, and all of them agreed to use hand tools during my cleaning at my request.”

“I can’t say enough great things about Private Dental Services. Everyone has been fantastic. I’ve been coming here for 10+ years, and my entire family is now at this office. It feels like a family because they really know how to take care of you and make sure all of your needs are met. They really know what they’re doing and also care a lot about the quality of their care.”

–Tonya P.

“I was afraid of the dentist, especially of needles. From our first appointment until today, I’m completely confident and relaxed with Dr. King's dentistry work (He is the best, in my opinion). I call him MacGyver… he can fix most everything dental. He will fix if possible, before replacing (that’s cost-effective!) He and his daughter work in unison to accomplish your dental needs.”
