Creating attractive, healthy smiles
We offer a carefully selected group of dental services, which are designed to serve you throughout your life:
Crowns
A crown (also known as a cap) is a tooth-like covering placed over a preexisting tooth. Crowns can serve many functions: strengthening, restoring, or improving the appearance of your natural tooth. For example, a crown can support the tooth when there is no longer sufficient tooth structure left to place a filling. Crowns may also be used to protect the structure of a tooth that is fractured or broken, and can be attached to bridges or dentures.
Anterior Crown Replacement
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.
Custom porcelain bridges or even dental implants can restore the look and feel of your own natural teeth when front teeth have been lost as a result of injury or disease.
All-Ceramic Crowns
New breakthroughs in adhesives and stronger porcelain materials now make it possible to make crowns entirely out of porcelain. To have enough strength to withstand biting forces, porcelain crowns used to be built upon a metal core. If you have ever noticed a dark blue line at the edge of a crown, now you know what caused it: the dark metal inside the porcelain.
All-porcelain crowns maintain a translucency that makes them hard to distinguish from natural teeth. Without metal, the problem of the dark blue line at the edge of the gums is eliminated. This allows us to place the edge of the crown above the gumline, which is healthier for your tooth and gums. When you want to improve your smile, all-porcelain crowns are a beautiful and natural-looking choice.
