Composite fillings are made of resin and are available in many shades. We will closely match the color of the fillings to the shade of your tooth so that they are virtually unnoticeable in your mouth. Composite fillings are placed in a single appointment to restore chipped, broken, fractured, and decayed teeth. It is normal to experience some sensitivity at first but, this will subside once the tooth acclimates to the new filling.

Although your permanent teeth can last a lifetime, there are circumstances where extractions are the only viable treatment. We will make every effort to try to save teeth; however, an extraction may be necessary if the tooth is badly decayed, has severe bone loss, or contains fractures. Sometimes extractions are necessary to prevent problems in the future, most typically with wisdom teeth.

Root canal therapy involves a sequence of treatments to remove the pulp (nerve) of the tooth in order to eliminate infection and prevent future infections. Without treatment, the infection can spread to the bone surrounding the roots and into the soft tissues of the mouth.

Extensive decay, trauma, and fractures of the tooth are the most common reasons for needing a root canal treatment. The tooth may become symptomatic to hot and cold, biting pressure, and the gums may become swollen and tender. Prompt treatment will increase the chance of saving the tooth.

A dental crown is used to restore teeth when it has cracked, fractured, or decayed to the point where a filling can no longer be used. It will protect the remaining tooth structure and restore the appearance of the tooth so that it can function properly. We have many choices when making your crown, from full porcelain to full metal (gold).

A dental bridge replaces one or more missing teeth. A bridge helps to restore appearance and prevent teeth from drifting, which can result in tooth, gum, and jaw problems. Both crowns and bridges can last many years unless the tooth structure underneath becomes decayed.

Dentures are a removable replacement for all teeth in one arch (complete dentures) or some of the teeth (partial dentures). If you have already lost most or all of your teeth, dentures will improve chewing, speech, and support of the facial muscles for a better appearance even when your mouth is closed. Dentures should be evaluated routinely to make sure they fit properly, especially if they are causing discomfort. Poor fitting dentures can cause trauma to oral tissues and existing teeth.

An implant completely replaces a lost tooth with a titanium screw firmly anchored into your jaw. Once the titanium screw integrates with your bone, it is restored with an implant crown. They are a superior alternative to dentures in terms of appearance, speech, comfort, eating, and oral health. With good oral hygiene, dental implants can last for many years.

A mouth guard is a dental splint that is worn over the upper teeth to prevent tooth to tooth contact in patients that tend to grind their teeth. Grinding and clenching causes extensive stress on the joints, the muscles of the jaw, and teeth. A mouth guard is used to alleviate pain and prevent further destruction of healthy teeth, which can lead to costly dental treatments.
