Most dentistry looks like dentistry. Our goal is to provide dentistry that is undetectable. We replace existing crowns and fillings with restorations that look and feel like your natural teeth.
Where damage to a person's teeth is extreme and apparently beyond repair, we can use all porcelain or porcelain “attached-to-gold" crowns to make the smile appear "as new". This is an extremely reliable technique for repairing the most severe dental problems, even replacing missing or broken teeth to offer a complete smile and a functional bite.
Crowns and bridges are a reliable solution for restoring dental problems caused by accidents, tooth decay, diseases, or wear and tear. Major problems can usually be corrected using these techniques. Materials used in these repairs are either high-grade porcelain or porcelain bonded to high noble metal. The higher strength of the porcelain and gold materials is recommended to treat the most serious of dental problems. Where accidental damage has occurred resulting in lost teeth, or teeth have broken away through excessive wear, or as the result of old fillings breaking, crowns and/or bridges can be used as a long-term solution.
Many people have unexplained pain from filled back teeth that is usually due to hairline cracks in the chewing part of the tooth. Placing crowns on these teeth often is the best way to relieve the pain and allow a return of full dental function for these teeth. In front teeth, older fillings can both weaken the teeth and cause appearance problems due to staining or chipping. Porcelain crowns and bridges are suitable in cases where porcelain veneers are not. In brittle teeth with root canal fillings, crowns can prevent breakage.
