To find out if youre a good candidate for cosmetic dentistry at Martindale Family Dentistry, your provider reviews your oral health history and examines your teeth and gums. They also take dental X-rays and discuss your desired outcome to develop a personalized treatment plan.
To repair teeth containing dental decay or other damage, your dentist might recommend a tooth-colored crown. It fits over a natural tooth like a cap to strengthen and restore the tooth and improve its overall appearance.
Dentures can replace multiple missing teeth to give you the full set of natural-looking teeth you deserve. The Martindale Family Dentistry team can customize dentures to match your unique needs and preferences.
To determine if youre a good candidate for a dental crown, your Martindale Family Dentistry provider reviews your oral health history and symptoms, examines your teeth and gums, and uses digital X-rays to find the root cause of dental issues and develop a treatment plan.
To start, your dentist might numb the treatment area to help you feel comfortable during your procedure. They remove dental decay when necessary and may file down or build up your tooth to ensure a crown can fit over it properly.
Your dentist digitally scans your teeth and sends the information to a dental lab, where technicians create a new, custom-fit crown that matches your natural tooth color. You might wear a temporary crown until your permanent crown is ready.
Wear a mouthguard at night if you grind your teeth and call the Martindale Family Dentistry team if the crown falls off, becomes loose, or gets damaged. See your dentist every six months for an exam and routine dental cleaning.
