If you hate the idea of excessive drilling in order to place dental restorations, then see Dr. Rubecca Shahid for minimally invasive dentistry. Our dentist conserves the maximum amount of healthy tooth structure and places restorations made of quality porcelains, contributing to a healthier, more beautiful smile. Contact our dental team if you want to learn more about minimally invasive dentistry in Seattle, WA.

With traditional dental procedures, such as the preparation and placement of a crown, nearly 75% of the tooth tissue is taken away in order to make space for the restoration. Instead of improving the health of your smile, this extreme removal of healthy tooth tissue shortens the life of the tooth. However, through minimally invasive dentistry, we strive to preserve as much tooth structure as we can for a healthier, stronger, and more beautiful smile.

With minimally invasive dentistry, we use better porcelain, advanced adhesives, and stronger materials to make quality restorations that don’t require as much tooth removal. Our conservative treatments are more comfortable since they require little to no drilling. By preserving maximum tooth structure, you will have a healthier smile that lasts longer.
