RESTORATIVE DENTISTRY
Dental Implants
If you are missing one tooth or multiple teeth, you may be a candidate for dental implants. Dental implants replace the missing root of your tooth. They are surgically placed in your jawbone. The bone grows tightly around the implant, and after a healing period a crown is placed over the implant. Once the crown is placed, no one will know you have a dental implant.
Bridges
Dental bridges can be used to replace one to three teeth. The two teeth adjacent to the missing teeth are prepared for crowns. The prosthetic tooth or teeth are placed between these two crowns.
Root Canals
A root canal is needed when the tissue inside the tooth becomes damaged or infected. This can be caused by deep cavities, cracks in the tooth, or trauma to a tooth. Successful root canal treatment allows the tooth to be “saved” and continue to function normally.
Partial Dentures
If you have lost some of your natural teeth, but still have healthy teeth present, a partial denture may be the solution. Partial dentures replace missing teeth while keeping the healthy teeth from shifting and maintain proper alignment. Partial dentures can be a very economical solution to replace missing teeth.
Complete Dentures
If you have lost all of your natural teeth, yet want a beautiful, natural-looking smile, removable dentures may be the solution for you. These days, dentures can look as beautiful and natural as you would like them to.
