Tooth Restorations and Cavity Care
A filling repairs a tooth after decay is removed. We use tooth-colored materials that blend in with your natural teeth.
Cavity care also means preventing the next one. We can recommend fluoride treatments, cleaning techniques, and habits that lower your risk of new decay.
Dental Crowns
A crown is a custom cap that covers a tooth that's cracked, badly worn, weakened by a large filling, or treated with a root canal. It restores the tooth's shape and strength.
Crowns usually take two visits: one to prepare the tooth and place a temporary crown, and one to place your permanent crown.
Dental Bridges
A bridge replaces one or more missing teeth by attaching a replacement tooth to crowns on the healthy teeth on either side of the gap.
Bridges are fixed in place, so you don't remove them. They help you chew normally and keep nearby teeth from shifting.
Inlays and Onlays
When damage is too large for a filling but doesn't require a full crown, an inlay or onlay is a conservative middle option.
An inlay fits within the chewing surface of a tooth, while an onlay also covers one or more of its cusps. Both are custom made to fit precisely and last for years with good care.
