Crowns
The most common crown restoration placed today utilizes a metal lining covered with porcelain. These types of restorations are not as natural in appearance because light is not able to pass through porcelain-metal crowns as it does with a natural tooth. The result is an opaque or flat-looking tooth. Often, these types of traditional crowns leave a dark or gray line next to the gumline. Our talented team is proud to offer a natural looking alternative: all-ceramic, non-metal crowns! With these newer restorations you will notice the "life-like" appearance that mimics natural teeth and does not produce the black gumline so common with porcelain-metal crowns.
CEREC
All-ceramic restorations, including crowns, onlays and veneers, restore health, strength and a natural appearance to teeth. But such restorations typically require two separate visits with several weeks between the two, the patient to wear uncomfortable temporaries and the use of a dental lab. For a more convenient alternative, we offer CEREC Technology that allows us to create and place a custom-designed restoration in only one appointment in our office, restoring your smile to health, comfort and a natural appearance.
Bridges
Missing teeth can cause a variety of problems, from low self-esteem and embarrassment to physical ailments, including gum disease, bite problems, bone loss, speech difficulties and painful chewing. A dental bridge can not only restore your smile to its natural appearance, but it can also return it to comfort and function. A bridge is a custom-fit false tooth (or teeth) that is permanently placed between two healthy teeth and is held in place by porcelain crowns.
Bonding

Inlays and Onlays
