Tooth-Colored Fillings
Decay occurs when bacteria have a chance to reproduce, which creates an acidic environment that eats away at the protective enamel on your teeth. Once decay makes it through the enamel, it can quickly progress through the softer part of your tooth, called the dentin. Dentin is what surrounds the inner canals of your teeth and the nerve. Once decay reaches the nerve, you will likely experience pain and your tooth might be in jeopardy.
Restorative Dental Bonding
Custom Dental Crowns
Dental bonding is a conservative, effective way to make small repairs to your smile. If you have chips, gaps, or small imperfections, we can use the same composite material we use to create fillings to repair your teeth.
Bonding conserves your tooth structure and is relatively inexpensive. We can even use dental bonding for small cosmetic enhancements!
If you break a tooth or have a significant amount of decay, you might need a dental crown to protect your tooth. Dental crowns completely cover your remaining tooth structure, adding support from the force of chewing. This is especially important for molar teeth that absorb the most force on a day-to-day basis.
Dental crowns can prolong the life of your tooth and provide you with comfort for many years to come.
