Dental Implants

If you are missing a tooth or have suffered serious tooth decay, the best option for treatment may be dental implants, along with crowns or dental bridges.

Dental implants:

Dental implants are artificial tooth roots. We use dental implants to replace teeth that are missing by implanting a metal “root” into the jawbone, and then building around the implant with synthetic “artificial” tooth material. Dental implants look and feel natural and do not requirethe removal of parts of nearby teeth. They are often the best type of treatment to ensure your overall oral health. Dental implants help strengthen your teeth and feel more natural than partials or dentures. Dental implants can often last a lifetime

Crown and Bridges

Crowns:

If you have a broken tooth, or a partially decayed tooth, we can replace the damaged part of the tooth with a new cap, or “crown”. The dental crown fits over your remaining tooth, and is meant to look and feel as natural as possible.
They are made of porcelain, which is stronger thantooth enamel but still looks great because of its natural shading.

Dental bridges:

If you are missing a tooth or multiple teeth, a dental bridge can be put in to “bridge the gap” in your smile. With dental bridge work, we reshape parts of your nearby teeth in order to fuse the new porcelain dental bridge material in place. Dental bridges are meant to make your overall teeth, jaws, and smile as strong and stable as possible.
