Bridges
Have you ever lost a tooth from an accident or sports injury? Or perhaps you have a gap between your teeth? Or maybe some of your teeth have drifted out of proper alignment because one or more missing teeth? If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, call our office and ask about bridges. The loss of a single tooth can have a major impact on your dental health and personal appearance. When one or more teeth are missing, the remaining teeth can shift out of their normal position. These teeth are more susceptible to decay and gum disease since they are increasingly difficult to clean. The result can be a change in your bite, which can put stresses on your jaws, muscles and teeth.
Permanent bridges can restore your teeth to their more natural state by replacing missing teeth. This improves the overall health of your mouth, keeping your surrounding teeth in a more ideal position while maintaining the structure of your face and jaws.
Crowns
Crowns restore broken, heavily filled or cracked teeth to their natural size, shape, and color. Often, earlier dental work can begin to breakdown or the appearance becomes unsightly. Crowns restore teeth to their original functionality and appearance.
If you have had root canal therapy, your tooth may be left brittle and more apt to fracture. A crown is recommended after a root canal to strengthen and protect the remaining tooth structure while improving the appearance. Call our office today and see how crowns can benefit you.
Implants
Dental implants represent the latest in dental technology in missing teeth replacement, and supporting and stabilizing loose fitting dentures. They look, feel and act just like your natural teeth. The technique for placing implants has been around since the 1980’s and has undergone many generations of refinement. In fact, implants can be placed with very little discomfort, under local anesthetic, and be just as strong and functional as natural healthy teeth.
Dentures
Dentures can be used to either replace single or multiple teeth. Rest assured, the old days of dentures are long gone. Advances in denture materials and design lead to more natural look and improved comfort. If you already have dentures (partial or full arch) and experience a loose fit or denture slippage, give our office a call. The loose fit and slippage can lead to sore gums, which can affect chewing, speech, or add a sense of anxiety when speaking and or dining with others. Call our office and let us help you feel good about your dentures.
