What we do
A filling repairs a cavity. A crown covers and protects a tooth that's cracked, badly worn, or too damaged for a filling. A bridge replaces a missing tooth by anchoring to the teeth on either side. All three are made to match your natural teeth, and all three start with you seeing the problem on screen and getting the cost in writing.
Fillings
We use tooth-colored composite, shaded to blend with the tooth around it. The decay is removed, the tooth is cleaned, and the filling is bonded in place and shaped to your bite. Most fillings take one visit. Catching a cavity while it's small keeps the filling small.
Crowns
A crown is a cap that covers the whole visible part of the tooth. It's the right call when a tooth has a large old filling, a crack, heavy wear, or has had a root canal. Ours are usually porcelain, custom shaded to your other teeth, and metal-free crowns are available when appearance matters most.
We take a digital scan of the tooth instead of a putty impression. It's more comfortable and gives the lab a precise model. Because the crown is made by a dental lab, you'll wear a temporary crown in between.
Bridges
A bridge fills a gap with a replacement tooth held by crowns on the neighboring teeth. It's fixed in place, so you don't take it out. When the neighboring teeth are healthy and you'd rather not crown them, an implant-supported bridge is another option. We'll compare both with you, including cost.
