Prosthodontic Treatment Options

In order to restore your smile, we may recommend the following prosthodontic treatments:

Dental Bridges

A dental bridge may be used to replace missing teeth, help maintain the shape of your face, and alleviate stress on your bite. A dental bridge replaces missing teeth with artificial teeth, looks great, and literally dental bridges the gap where one or more teeth may have been. Your dental bridge can be made from gold, alloys, porcelain, or a combination of these materials and is bonded onto surrounding teeth for support.

Dental Crowns

Dental Crowns are a restoration used to improve your tooth’s shape or to strengthen a tooth. Dental Crowns are most often used for teeth that are broken, worn, or have portions destroyed by tooth decay. Think of a crown as a “cap” cemented onto an existing tooth which fully covers the portion of your tooth above the gum line. In effect, the dental crown becomes your tooth’s new outer surface. Dental Crowns can be made of Zirconia, porcelain, metal, or combinations. Porcelain and zirconia dental crowns are most often preferred because they mimic the translucency of natural teeth and are very strong.

Dental Implants

Dental implants are artificial tooth made of metal and porcelain that looks just like your natural tooth. Dental implants are composed of two main parts: one is the titanium implant body that takes the place of the missing root, and the second part is the tooth-colored dental crown that is cemented on top of the implant. With dental implants, you can smile confidently knowing that no one will ever suspect you have a replacement tooth.

Dentures

Dentures are natural-looking replacement teeth made by your dentist that are removable. There are two types of dentures: full dentures and partial dentures. Full dentures are given to patients when all of the natural teeth have been removed. Partial dentures are attached to a metal frame that is connected to your natural teeth and is used to fill in where permanent teeth have been removed.  We offer affordable & best dentures in Cypress, TX. 

Dental Fillings

A dental filling is often used to repair a tooth that is affected by wear, decay, cracks, or fractures. The decayed or affected portion of the tooth is removed and replaced with a filling, which can be made up of many different materials, such as gold, porcelain, composite, ceramic, and plastic compounds.

Occlusal Disease Treatment

Occlusal disease is caused by a misalignment between the teeth of the upper and lower dental arches, also called malocclusion. If left untreated, occlusal disease and can damage your teeth, the supporting bones and gums around your teeth, temporomandibular joints, and the jaw muscles you use for chewing. Many people dismiss excessive or abnormally accelerated tooth wear as natural aging or wearing of teeth, however, prosthodontic treatment can alleviate the pain and discomfort caused by occlusal disease.

Dental Veneers

Dental Veneers are thin, custom-made shells made from tooth-colored materials, such as porcelain, designed to cover the front side of your teeth. Dental Veneers are natural in appearance and a great option for patients who want to make adjustments to the look and feel of their smile.
