Fillings
The sooner we’re able to intervene, the less likely you’ll need an invasive treatment such as a root canal or tooth extraction. Instead, we’re usually able to restore slightly decayed teeth with composite resin fillings.
Inlays & Onlays
Are you experiencing dental pain or discomfort due to cavities? Depending on the extent of decay, our dentist may recommend inlays and onlays to restore the full health, function, and appearance of your smile.
Dental Crowns
Dr. Lee may recommend a porcelain dental crown to restore a tooth with significant injury or decay. Unlike other types of restorations, a dental crown covers the entire tooth above the gum line.
Dental Bridges
A missing tooth affects more than the appearance of your smile. It can also increase your risk of further tooth loss and affect your ability to chew foods effectively. The good news is that our dentist offers dental bridges.
Dental Implants
A dental implant is a prosthetic tooth root that’s made out of a titanium alloy. This implant is embedded in the jawbone so that it can later support an abutment and crown. Together, the implant, abutment, and crown give you the full appearance and function of a natural tooth.
Root Canals
Root canals can help save abscessed teeth from needing extraction. However, it’s important to remember that there’s a limited window of time to save a tooth. The faster you act, the less likely you’ll need extraction.
Tooth Extractions
Our dentist may recommend tooth extractions as a last resort to protect your oral health after significant injury or decay. That being said, Dr. Lee will do everything in his power to help you avoid any dental extractions.
Dentures
During your appointment, Dr. Lee will discuss your so you can protect your oral health as much as possible. Removable partial dentures help prevent further tooth loss by preventing the other teeth in your mouth from shifting.
