Do you suffer from sensitive teeth that prevents you from eating your favorite foods? Or maybe a broken or chipped tooth? You’ve found the right place. Dental restoration consists of basic procedures like fillings and more complex treatment like crowns and bridges. If you have a cavity a tooth colored filling is an excellent, pain free, way of restoring the tooth’s surface, structure, and function.
Do you suffer from a missing tooth or teeth? A dental bridge is a great way to replace a missing tooth. Your existing teeth on either side of the missing tooth are used to support a permanently cemented prosthesis to replace the missing tooth. There are many types of dental bridges such as gold, metal, or porcelain to ensure that they are strong, durable, and meet each individual esthetic demand. A dental bridge will look and feel like your natural tooth and is a permanent restoration.
Over time our teeth begin to weaken and become more susceptible to problems such as decay, cracks, and discoloration to name a few. If you feel your smile isn’t what it once was, crowns can help you recover your smile. If Dr. Van Hoof notices that a tooth is decayed, seems weakened or cracked, a crown may be necessary to make sure that the tooth remains healthy for years to come. In cases like this, a filling or bonding will not be sufficient and so a crown is the recommended procedure.
Crowns have many different types, they can be made from porcelain, porcelain fused to metal, or a full gold crown. To maintain a natural look and feel a porcelain finished crown is best, as it can be matched to the shade of your other teeth. This will allow it to blend in and appear just like one of your natural teeth. Call us today if you would like to learn more about how crowns can help restore your smile.

If you are missing a tooth we are here to help! We recommend that you consider having any missing teeth replaced. Besides the aesthetic disadvantage of a missing tooth, it can also cause structural changes to your mouth and jaw, as well as make it difficult to eat or speak properly. There are a few options for you to consider when replacing a missing tooth. These options include a dental implant, bridge, or removable partial denture. Set up an appointment today to restore your smile.
Implants: Currently, a dental implant is the best option as it is a stand alone restoration that does not rely on the adjacent teeth for support. A dental implant will look, feel, and floss just like the natural tooth that it is replacing. Ask us for more information regarding dental implants at your next appointment!
Bridge: A dental bridge is a great way to replace a missing tooth. Your existing teeth on either side of the missing tooth are used to support a permanently cemented prosthesis to replace the missing tooth. There are many types of dental bridges such as gold, metal, or porcelain to ensure that they are strong, durable, and meet each individual esthetic demand. A dental bridge will look and feel like your natural tooth and is a permanent restoration.
Removable Partial Denture: A partial denture is the most affordable way to replace a missing tooth or teeth. They use your remaining teeth for support and retention and are able to be removed for cleaning purposes. If you have multiple missing teeth and are looking for a low-cost way to get your smile back give us a call and we can discuss which options would be best for you.
