Traditional Dental Crown & Bridge

If you have chipped, cracked, broken, decayed, or even missing teeth, then our team can quickly and effectively repair them using two of the most trusted treatments in all of dentistry: crowns and bridges. A crown fits over the top of a damaged tooth to restore it both structurally and cosmetically, while a bridge can replace one or a row of consecutive missing teeth. In the end, no matter what your smile needs, we’ll be able to provide it.

Tooth-Colored Fillings

Fillings have been used for decades to repair small cavities and slightly damaged teeth, and traditionally, they were made of a dark gray metal material called amalgam. Our practice uses composite resin-based fillings because the material can be shaded to match the natural color of a patient’s teeth, and it can also be shaped in a way that helps us preserve more of a tooth’s structure while placing it. In the end, they provide a restoration that looks great and is built to last.

Dentures & Partial Dentures

Dentures in glass of water

Full and partial dentures are removable prosthetics that can replace multiple missing teeth, and thanks to the latest advancements, they are now smaller, sleeker, and more comfortable than ever. They consist of ceramic teeth fitted to a lifelike, gum-colored base, and whether you are missing just a few teeth or all of them, they can help rebuild your smile and restore your ability to eat and speak with ease.

Tooth Extractions

While our number one goal is to preserve all of your natural teeth, sometimes the best course of action may involve removing one. This may be the case if:

  • A tooth is too damaged to be restored
  • A baby tooth refuses to fall out on its own
  • Gum disease has compromised the bone supporting a tooth
  • Room needs to be created for a denture
  • Room needs to be created for orthodontic treatment
  • A weakened tooth is going to be replaced with a dental implant

We can also perform simple wisdom tooth extractions in-house as well, though we may need to refer you to an oral surgeon depending on your situation.
