Restore Your Bite: Expert TMJ & Restorative Dentistry in Plymouth, MA

Restoring Your Chewing Ability: Comprehensive Care in Plymouth, MA

At Plymouth Center for Dental Health and Wellness, we understand how frustrating and limiting it can be to live with missing or worn teeth, as well as issues related to TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorders. Your ability to chew comfortably and enjoy your favorite foods is crucial to maintaining your health and quality of life. Our practice, based in Plymouth, Massachusetts, specializes in restoring chewing function and improving overall wellness for a mature, fee-flexible market.

With extensive training, including a residency in Oral Facial Pain and TMJ, Dr. Sandra MacDonald is uniquely equipped to treat complex dental issues that affect your bite and jaw function, offering comprehensive solutions to help you regain confidence in your smile and chewing ability.

Specialized Care for Missing Teeth, Worn Teeth, and TMJ Issues

Whether you are missing teeth, have severely worn teeth, or suffer from jaw pain related to TMJ disorders, we offer a range of personalized treatment options designed to restore your oral function and overall health.

Dental Implants and Bridges for Missing Teeth: If you're dealing with missing teeth, you’re not just missing out on aesthetics—you’re also losing vital chewing function. Dr. MacDonald works with a dedicated and experienced team delivering durable, natural-looking dental implants and bridges to fill gaps, restore your bite, and bring back the joy of eating without discomfort.
Reconstruction for Worn Teeth: The outer coating of your teeth is made of enamel, which though hard, is not as hard as Plymouth Rock. They can wear out. Worn teeth can make chewing painful and inefficient. The softer root surface can wear out even quicker, resulting in sensitivity to cold, sugar and acid. We specialize in full-mouth reconstruction and restorative dentistry to rebuild worn-down teeth and protect sensitive root surfaces, so you can enjoy your meals and live without dental discomfort.
TMJ Treatment: TMJ disorders can cause chronic pain and difficulty chewing. Dr. MacDonald has advanced training in treating TMJ issues, offering customized treatment plans to alleviate pain, improve jaw function, and restore your ability to chew comfortably.
