Dentures are a natural-looking solution for missing teeth. They are custom-made from lifelike materials to resemble your natural teeth and fit comfortably in your mouth. Dentures are typically recommended when patients are missing most or all of their teeth. If you have several missing teeth, dentures can replace them, restoring your ability to chew and speak properly. Full dentures can also improve the appearance of your smile and boost self-confidence.

A crown is a type of dental restoration that completely caps or encircles a tooth or dental implant. While dental crowns are used primarily to restore decayed or broken teeth, they are also commonly used in combination with root canal therapy to protect the treated tooth from further damage. In cases where teeth are discolored, a crown may be placed in order to improve their color and overall appearance. Crowns are also placed to strengthen and protect the tooth structure, thus improving its appearance.
When multiple adjacent teeth are missing, a fixed bridge may be used to replace them. This type of dental restoration consists of an artificial tooth that is attached between two crowns on either side of the space left by a missing tooth.
Dental implants are small titanium posts that replace the roots of missing teeth. The implants are placed into the jaw during a minor surgical procedure that takes place under local anesthesia. After a healing period, the implants are fitted with a connector or abutment and topped with a dental crown. In fact, dental implants are the closest you can get to healthy, natural teeth because they help prevent bone loss and don’t require reducing other teeth to hold a bridge in place.
Invisible aligners are an excellent option to address malocclusion and teeth crowding if you don’t want to go through the hassle of using brackets and wires to straighten your smile. With a set of custom aligners made just for you, you can straighten your teeth while remaining virtually invisible! Each set of aligners is worn for approximately two weeks before switching to the next set in the series until your treatment is complete. Your teeth will gradually move into their ideal position.
Partial dentures are tooth replacement prosthetics that fill in the gaps of healthy teeth when a patient is missing multiple teeth on a top or bottom arch. A partial denture consists of a pink acrylic base that is matched to the patient’s gum color, prosthetic teeth made of porcelain, and a connector that joins the two arches together. When in place, the partial denture looks natural and blends in with the patient’s other teeth.
A crown is a restoration that completely covers a tooth. Crowns are often recommended after root canal therapy in order to protect the tooth and restore its strength and function. While traditional crowns require multiple visits to the dentist’s office and the placement of a temporary crown, same-day crowns can be made in one visit. Same-day crowns are made of ceramic material that can be color matched to your natural tooth shade. These crowns resemble natural teeth the most, making them a popular treatment choice.
Fillings and tooth bonding are restorative procedures that fill holes in the teeth caused by decay or injury and restore the tooth’s structure to its original shape. Tooth-colored fillings are made from a ceramic material that matches the natural color of your teeth for a seamless look when filling in cavities. Teeth bonding is a cosmetic procedure that uses a tooth-colored composite resin to repair chips and cracks in your tooth enamel. The bond is bonded to the tooth to strengthen the tooth and repair imperfections. Bonding usually lasts up to ten years before requiring replacement.
