Tooth-Colored Fillings
Metal amalgam fillings used to be the go-to solution for cavities, but they tended to be highly noticeable. We prefer to use tooth-colored fillings in order to repair decayed teeth in a natural-looking way. This type of filling is made out of composite resin, a special material that can match the color of your teeth. Beyond the obvious aesthetic benefits, composite resin fillings are also more conservative than amalgam ones since they don’t require us to remove as much of the natural tooth’s structure.
Dental Crowns
Badly damaged teeth can’t repair themselves, but fortunately, they can often be fixed with a personalized dental crown. This type of restoration completely covers the tooth in question, including the biting surface. You will be able to use the tooth to chew all kinds of foods again without having to worry about the existing damage getting worse. If you want your crown to look as natural as possible, we’re more than happy to offer metal-free options.
Dental Bridges
What can you do if a tooth is missing entirely? The answer often depends on the type of tooth loss. In cases where only one tooth or a few consecutive teeth need to be replaced, we may be able to fill in the gap with a dental bridge. Each dental bridge consists of a specific number of artificial teeth known as pontics; the crowns at either end of the bridge will be attached to your natural teeth in order to keep the entire prosthesis anchored in place.
Dentures
Dentures can be a great solution when you have multiple teeth that need to be replaced. When only some teeth have been lost, we can give you a partial denture that has been designed to fit comfortably into the gaps in your grin. Meanwhile, if you are missing an entire arch of teeth, we can help you restore your smile with a full denture. Keep in mind that full dentures use natural suction to stay in place while partial dentures have clasps that keep them attached to natural teeth.
Full Mouth Reconstruction
Even if you’re suffering from multiple complex dental issues, we can still restore the health and appearance of your smile. Sometimes we may need to combine multiple cosmetic or restorative dentistry treatments in order to address all of the problems present in your mouth; this process is known as a full mouth reconstruction. The exact treatments that we recommend will depend on your specific needs, which is why we’ll always carefully examine your mouth first to get a firm grasp on the situation.
