Tooth Replacement

Crown & Bridge Work

Crowns become necessary when there is insufficient tooth structure to support a filling. Teeth that are severely broken down from decay or fracture can be fully restored to proper appearance and function with a crown restoration.

Crowns provide necessary strength, protection and cover the tooth completely, fitting just at the gumline.

There are a variety of different crowns to chose from. Dr. Joshua Maxwell prefers the virtually indestructible all zirconium crowns for the back teeth and the beautiful yet strong tooth-colored porcelain fused to zirconium in the cosmetic zone. The shade is customized to match your other teeth so that your crown will look like a natural tooth.

Dental Implants

Dental Implants are frequently the best treatment option for replacing missing teeth.

Dentures & Partials

Dentures and partials are removable prosthetic that can be taken out of the mouth. They usually replace many teeth. They support themselves partly on the gum and underlying bone, and in part on the remaining teeth if there are any.

Dentures and partials usually require a few weeks of adaptation. In addition, they require adjustments from time to time.

Implant Dentures

An implant-supported denture is a type of overdenture that is supported by and attached to implants. A regular denture rests on the gums, and is not supported by implants.

An implant-supported denture is used when a person doesn't have any teeth in the jaw, but has enough bone in the jaw to support implants. An implant-supported denture has special attachments that snap onto attachments on the implants.
