Tooth-Colored Fillings
Traditionally, dentists used dark gray metals to fill cavities, but these restorations stand out in a person’s smile like a sore thumb. Instead, we use tooth-colored fillings. They’re made from a composite resin that can be matched to any shade of enamel, enabling it to easily blend in with the rest of your pearly whites. Better yet, tooth-colored fillings contain no metal, so they don’t cause temperature sensitivity like old silver fillings do.
Dental Crowns
If your tooth has sustained damage too extensive to be repaired with a filling, we can use a dental crown to restore it to its original strength, size, and appearance. Our crowns are made from beautiful tooth-colored materials, durable metals, or a combination of the two, creating a customized cap that can be comfortably cemented over the visible section of the tooth to protect it from further damage.
Dental Bridges
If you’re missing one or several teeth in a row, a dental bridge may be the best way to restore your smile. A bridge is one or several artificial teeth supported by either dental crowns attached to the healthy teeth on either side of the gap or dental implants surgically placed within the jaw. This allows a patient to complete their smile with a beautifully lifelike restoration that can be easily cared for.
Dentures
People have been replacing their lost teeth with dentures in some form or fashion for centuries, but today’s dentures are more realistic and comfortable than ever. A full denture brings back an entire row of teeth with a pink acrylic base that stays in place thanks to natural suction against the gums. For patients with some natural teeth left, we can create a partial denture that clasps behind the remaining teeth to effortlessly complete their smile.
Dental Implants
We typically recommend dental implants above all other tooth replacement options. Why? Conventional dentures and bridges might look lifelike, but they don’t quite feel natural because they don’t replace the tooth’s root structure. Dental implants do. They recreate the root and fuse with the jawbone. As a result, they provide benefits that traditional solutions simply cannot. For instance, dental implants can last for 30+ years without having to be replaced.
