Restoring a Healthy Smile
Benefits of Restorations
Missing and damaged teeth not only affect the appearance of your smile, but your functionality in everyday life, too. It’s important to address gaps from missing teeth and cracks or other damage to prevent them from causing further problems later on. Dr. Din is skilled at providing beautiful, strong restorations for a return to a healthy, natural-looking smile.
A Crown Protects a Damaged Tooth
Individual crowns are sometimes necessary to save a broken or worn-down tooth when a simple filling will not restore it to full functionality. By surrounding and supporting the healthy tooth structure, a crown will save and even add strength to the damaged tooth. We use the most advanced materials to make your crown. It will look so natural, you won’t be able to distinguish it from a real tooth.
Actual Patient
The same before-and-after results may not occur for all patients.
No Mercury! No Metals! No Kidding!
While silver-mercury amalgam fillings are a reasonable restoration, metal does not bond well to teeth, so decay can and does eventually leak into the tooth. But the biggest reason many of our patients prefer white bonded fillings is that they are a natural-looking white, contain no metals, and can actually strengthen your teeth. They also bond very tightly with the healthy part of the tooth so there is much less chance of decay in the future.
