Tooth-Colored Fillings

Cavities have long been treated with amalgam. While effective, amalgam poses a few issues. The biggest problem is that it stands out from the rest of your teeth. It also contains metals, including mercury. Tooth-colored fillings provide a way to treat cavities that blend in perfectly with the rest of your teeth. They use the same composite resin that is used for dental bonding. It matches your enamel, and it contains no metal or mercury.

Dental Crowns

Crowns are used for more serious damage to a tooth that can compromise its health and integrity. Crowns can be made of metal, or they can be made from ceramic. Their main jobs are to hold a damaged tooth together (preventing further harm), prevent infection, and provide the tooth with renewed strength.

Dental Bridges

A dental bridge is one option available for replacing a missing tooth (or up to three missing in a row). It consists of a replacement tooth (pontic tooth) set between two dental crowns. The crowns are used to anchor the bridge to the teeth adjacent to the space, holding it securely in place.

Dental Implants

Dental implants are the most recent addition to your available options for replacing missing teeth. They are unlike any other dental restoration, requiring a surgical procedure to insert small titanium posts into your jawbone. While they do require a lengthy recovery time (several weeks to several months), implants offer a wide variety of benefits over other, more traditional restorative options, including greater comfort, permanence, and the successful preservation of your jawbone.

When a tooth becomes pained or damaged, you need relief now – not in a few more days or weeks. That’s why Dr. Teasdale makes every effort to care for emergency patients in record time, helping to relieve discomfort and propose custom restorative solutions that can bring back their smile’s strength, durability, and overall appearance. Whether you’re brand-new to our dental office or a reoccurring patient, don’t hesitate to contact us in these dire situations.

Root Canal Therapy

Animation of the inside of a tooth

Infections inside the teeth are painful, as well as potentially dangerous, and they need to be treated right away. The only way to treat an infection is to remove the pulp of the tooth and disinfect it from the inside. A hole is placed in the top of the tooth, and small tools are used to remove the pulp and shape the hollow canals inside. The tooth is then disinfected, filled with a material called gutta percha, and capped with a crown.

Tooth Extractions

Your teeth perform numerous essential tasks every day and are integral to the health of your mouth and jaw. Because of this, we do everything we can to save damaged teeth. However, there are some instances where a tooth is damaged beyond repair. In these cases, we will extract (remove) the tooth. If we do need to extract a tooth, don’t worry – we will discuss options for replacing it.

Wisdom Tooth Extractions

Animation of impacted tooth

One of the most common types of extraction we perform is the removal of wisdom teeth, also known as third molars. Wisdom teeth are the last permanent teeth to erupt into a young adult’s mouth, and because of a lack of space, they’re likely to become impacted (trapped in the jawbone) or dangerously overcrowded. Extraction is often in the patient’s best interests, as this treatment will help the rest of their smile stay whole, healthy, and safe from higher risks of infection.
