Have you recently experienced tooth loss and are struggling to decide if you need to replace your tooth or if you should leave the space alone? Dealing with tooth loss can be extremely challenging for a patient, causing feelings of sadness, uncertainty, and confusion. We are here to help patients work through their feelings and get through the process of replacing their tooth or teeth. We encourage any patient to replace a missing tooth as soon as possible, no matter the location. The only teeth that do not need to be replaced are wisdom teeth and teeth that were removed prior to orthodontic treatment.

Do You Know About Crowns?

We never recommend a dental treatment to a patient unless they are experiencing a complication with their oral health and would benefit from a restorative dental treatment. If you have postponed or avoided a treatment we recommended, we highly suggest you schedule your appointment as soon as possible. Delaying necessary dental care can result in a dental emergency or the need for more in-depth treatment. We know that it can be intimidating to receive a treatment that you are not familiar with. Today we want to take a few minutes to explain more about one of the most common treatments a patient may need — a dental crown. Even if you don’t currently need a dental crown, it is extremely likely that you or a loved one may need one in the future. Read on to learn more about dental crowns.

If you are missing a tooth, it is essential to your oral and overall health to speak to us about the tooth replacements we offer patients. Even if your smile hasn’t been affected because you are missing your molars in the back of the mouth, it can cause problems with the way you eat and digest food, as well as negatively affect your quality of life. We offer a tooth replacement option that can restore multiple teeth at one time. Read on to learn more about a dental bridge and why we may recommend this treatment.

Despite improvements in dental care, millions of Americans still incur tooth loss, mostly due to tooth decay, periodontal disease, or injury. For many years, the only solutions to these problems were the use of crowns, bridges, and dentures. Thankfully, today we also have dental implants. A dental implant is a high-tech replacement tooth that mimics the whole tooth structure. A titanium post is surgically inserted into the jawbone beneath the gum line and then a crown, or the replacement tooth, is affixed to the implant.
