Tooth-Colored Fillings
Fillings are the restoration of choice when you have a cavity or some minor dental damage. In the past, silver amalgam was the standard for making fillings, but nowadays there’s a much more attractive and smile-friendly solution available. Tooth-colored fillings are made out of a composite resin that can blend in with your natural tooth enamel, and they can mold into the teeth more easily so that we can protect the natural enamel.
Dental Crowns
A crown is a cap that’s designed to fit perfectly over a natural tooth, restoring its original shape and size. This protects them from further damage and infection, and it allows you to continue biting and chewing normally without putting your tooth at risk. While we do offer traditional gold crowns, we also have several lifelike options like porcelain, porcelain-fused-to-metal, and zirconia. The material we recommend will be based on your needs and preferences.

Root Canals
Sometimes the damage extends past the surface of the enamel and extends to the pulp at the center of the tooth. Infected dental pulp is one of the leading causes of toothaches, but with the help of root canal therapy, we can remove the infection and put a stop to your pain. Your mouth will be numbed for the procedure, and we’ll do whatever we can to keep you as comfortable as possible while we treat your tooth.
Tooth Extractions
Some dental damage is so extensive that even a filling or a crown won’t be enough to fix it. In other cases, a tooth infection may have gotten severe enough that root canal therapy is no longer a viable choice. In these situations, we may have to remove your tooth altogether. This is only done as a last resort, and our friendly team will be by your side to make the process as straightforward and comfortable as possible.
