Rebuild Your Smile with Personalized Restorative Dentistry
If a patient comes into the office and they are either missing teeth or they have broken teeth, we always like to kind of get a plan to how we can restore those teeth back to health. So whether that’s just one single broken tooth, in which case it may need a crown to go over top of it, we can talk about a single crown. That crown is going to kind of help hold everything together so that tooth doesn’t break further.
Or if they’ve somehow broken a tooth and that needed to be extracted and they need to get that replaced, we’ll talk about options for implants, which is sort of the gold standard of how to replace a single tooth. Or if we want to talk about doing a bridge, a bridge is when we put crowns on the tooth in front and behind that space and there’s a fake tooth in between. So it gets cemented in, it’s permanent, you don’t take it in and out, but it’s going to kind of fix that so we have a tooth in that area.
Or if those aren’t options, financially we also have, you know, partial dentures that we can do or what are called flippers. Sometimes we use those to restore those missing teeth as well.
