Summerville Office
When plaque and bacteria erode tooth enamel, they can form cavities and areas of decay in the tooth structure. Left unchecked, this can destroy the sensitive nerves and root structure of teeth. Our composite resin fillings are placed to stop cavities and restore the bite surface. During the procedure, the decay and only a minimal amount of the original tooth structure will be removed. Composite resin fillings appear natural and are virtually undetectable in your smile. Even if you have previously placed metal fillings, they can be removed and replaced with composite tooth-colored fillings that are beautiful and metal free. Click here to learn more.
Unlike metal-based crowns of the past, our all-ceramic crowns are crafted using layers of porcelain that not only protect the remaining tooth structure but look more realistic than past restorations. In much the same way that porcelain dental veneers are crafted, the porcelain is layered to create the most realistic ceramic restoration. Because of this careful process, light is able to move through the semi-translucent material in much the same way as natural teeth. Porcelain is also extremely strong and durable and will last for years to come.
Metal-based crowns have also been known to erode along the gumline, exposing a dark line of metal at the base of the tooth. We use only metal-free crowns in our restorative dentistry procedures. Our patients often report that friends and family can’t tell their crowns from their natural teeth, and that they are confident their bite is stronger because of the porcelain crowns.

My name is Greg Cox, I just left Dr. Ammons Dental By Design and I just wanted to leave a testimonial because I’m 53 years old and out of all the dentists that I’ve seen in my entire life, this office rocks. Dr. Ammons’ awesome, the staff is awesome. Everything that I’ve experienced at this place; and I’ve had bone marrow implants, I’ve had gum surgery, I’ve had all kinds of stuff done here, 5 implants, everything has been unbelievable. The sedation aspect of his service is just unbelievable. I can’t say enough good things. I would definitely recommend anybody who’s considering dental work to definitely come see him. Just had my teeth cleaned and I can honestly say I don’t think they’ve ever been this clean before. They definitely got in there. Anyway, just wanted to make sure I left a little something here to express my appreciation for everything that’s gone here. Looking forward to continuing to come. Thank you very much.
We are so glad we are patients at Dr. Ammons dental group. Their staff is exceptional. Dr. Ammons is a professional and his newest doctor, Dr. G is so kind and so wonderful in knowing what we need and doing it and we just love them as family does. We are appreciative of them and can’t recommend them enough to all of our friends and family and even church group. Thank you very much. Marcia Garenger, Rick Garenger and Catherine Cologne
Hi, my name is Mary Hunt and I’m calling to comment on Dr. Ammons’ office, Dental by Design. The best care ever. I have nothing but a wonderful experience. He did implants and he is a perfectionist. And the staff and everyone was very very caring, treated me like I was family, and by follow ups, they’re always on time, perfect and take just very very good care of me.
Hi, this is Susan Herb and I’ve been coming to Dr. Ammons since last year and they have built me a bridge and it stays in so well, that I just adore it and it’s so easy to use. The way they treat you here is just like you’re family. And as a matter of fact, now my husband’s coming to them and he’s getting full dentures and implants. I think I’ve got somebody else in my family talked to come here too, because the more I say about them, the better people are amazed at how happy we are coming here. I just wanted you to know that the main thing, that they just treated us so well and explained everything to us. Thank you.
I’ve been experiencing a lot of dental issues . I’ve very leery of going to the dentist, I’m very scared about it, I’ve got a lot of dental work done in the past and a good friend recommended Dr. Ammons’ office and I found the people on the phone and here in the office to be so pleasant, so helpful. A lot of different choices were given to me, a lot of time was given to me. I don’t think I’ve ever been to a dental office that has been this friendly and happy and it just makes you feel at home. It’s been a wonderful experience and I certainly wouldn’t want to go anywhere else.
I’m a patient of Dr. Michael Ammons and I’ve been with him for a year and a half and I really think he is a wonderful dentist. He is modern, he has modern technology, he knows a lot about implants, which I have. I have a bad case of the implants with infections and really just gave me good advise and has been there for me whenever I needed him. He is really a really excellent dentist and I appreciate him.
Yes, this is Robert Menglie and I just wanted to say that overall, I’m impressed with Dr. Ammons and the entire staff, John, the dental hygienist. He is very though and very serious about what he does and overall, he did a good job.
Ammons Dental. I had some problems with some front teeth and they fixed it for me and I’m really happy with the results that I had. Before, I’d go around, and when I talked, I would be afraid to open up my mouth all the way because people could see my crooked teeth, but they fixed it and I am really happy with the product. Thank you.
Hi, this is Debbie Hasting and I just had a wonderful experience getting my teeth cleaned. Actually, it’s something I look forward to, coming to Dr. Ammons every 6 months to get my teeth cleaned. John does a wonderful job and I would highly recommend him to anybody, but anyway, I feel much better and like I have a new mouth. Have a great day! Bye.
Great experience here. Been here for about a year and a half or something. My name is John Murphy. They do a terrific job in here and I’m very very pleased with their performance and trust what they do for me. Thank you.

Finally! A dentist who listened to me. I have never been more comfortable during a dental procedure. I had a root canal done and didn't experience any pain at all. Before Dr Ammons I would not have believed it possible.
I would highly recommend this group . Most caring, professional dental practice I have ever had privilege of using. If I could give them 100 stars I would . Absolutely amazing practice.
