Dental Bridges

Dental bridges are a common solution for replacing one or more missing teeth by anchoring a false tooth or teeth between two crowns placed on the adjacent natural teeth or implants. Bridges help restore the appearance and function of your smile, allowing you to chew and speak more comfortably. They also prevent remaining teeth from shifting out of place, which can lead to bite issues and further dental problems.

CEREC® Same Day Crowns

CEREC dental crowns offer a convenient and efficient solution for patients needing a dental crown. Using advanced CAD/CAM technology, your dentist can create and place a custom crown in just one visit, eliminating the need for temporary crowns and multiple appointments. Made from high-quality ceramic, CEREC crowns are durable and designed to match the natural color of your teeth, ensuring a seamless and long-lasting restoration.

Full & Partial Dentures

Dentures are removable dental appliances designed to replace missing teeth and restore function and aesthetics to your smile. They come in two main types: full dentures, which replace all teeth in the upper or lower jaw, and partial dentures, which fill gaps left by missing teeth. Properly fitted dentures help with chewing and speaking and support facial structures, preventing the sunken appearance that can occur with tooth loss.

Root Canal Therapy

Root canal therapy is a dental procedure used to treat and save a tooth that is severely decayed or infected. During the procedure, the dentist removes the infected pulp from the tooth’s root canals, cleans and disinfects the area, and then fills and seals the space to prevent further infection. A crown is often placed over the tooth to restore its strength and function. Root canal therapy can relieve pain, preserve the natural tooth, and prevent the need for extraction.

Dental Extractions

Dental extractions involve the removal of a tooth from its socket in the jawbone and are typically performed when a tooth is damaged beyond repair due to decay, trauma, or infection. Extractions can also be necessary for overcrowding, to make room for orthodontic treatment, or to remove impacted wisdom teeth. The procedure can be simple or surgical, depending on the tooth’s condition and location.

Dental Fillings

Dental fillings are used to repair teeth damaged by cavities or minor fractures, restoring their function and preventing further decay. The process involves removing the decayed portion of the tooth and filling the cavity with a durable material such as composite resin, amalgam, or porcelain. Composite fillings are popular for their natural appearance, as they can be color-matched to the surrounding teeth.

Dental Implants

Dental implants are a permanent solution for replacing missing teeth, consisting of a titanium post surgically placed into the jawbone to act as an artificial tooth root. Once the implant integrates with the bone, a custom-made crown, bridge, or denture is attached, providing a natural-looking and stable replacement. Implants help preserve bone density, prevent neighboring teeth from shifting, and restore full function and aesthetics to your smile.

Oral Surgery

Oral surgery encompasses a range of procedures aimed at treating complex dental issues, and oral surgeons are specially trained to handle intricate procedures that require a high level of precision and care. Our practice offers bone graft procedures and wisdom teeth removals, which are two specialty options that not every Austin dental office provides. Whether you are repairing your jawbone health or need your third molars removed, our team is here to help.
