If you need dental restorations, visit our office for natural looking and durable ones.  We can provide you with dental bonding, dental veneers, dental crowns, or dental fillings in Florence so that your teeth can be restored in both appearance and functionality.  This is important for ensuring that you can smile with confidence, eat your favorite foods and speak clearly. Since our goal is to help you maintain healthy teeth for a lifetime, having them restored immediately is critical.  Otherwise, you run the risk of an infection or damage spreading to the point that a dental extraction becomes necessary.

If you damage a tooth by cracking or chipping it while eating or in an accident, we have several ways to restore it.  The type of dental restorations that we will recommend is based on the extent of the damage.  For example, if the crack is on a front tooth, we may recommend dental bonding or veneers.  If you have a major chip on the same tooth or a back tooth, you may need dental crowns because a crown is a cap that surrounds the tooth and prevents anything from touching it.  Since nothing can come in direct contact with the damaged tooth, it is possible to bite down with full force and not experience any discomfort.  When it comes to dental restorations, all of these solutions can be placed in a way that looks entirely natural, making it difficult to tell that the tooth was ever damaged in the first place.

We can also provide you with dental fillings in Florence when the restoration you need is related to a cavity having been treated.  While most people do not associate cavities with the need for a dental restoration, a cavity is tooth decay.  When a portion of your tooth decays, it must be removed so that the decay does not spread.  Removing it leaves your tooth with a portion missing.  In order for you to bite down like normal, eat and feel comfortable, the tooth structure must be restored precisely.  This is where dental fillings come in.  We use fillings to restore every detail of your tooth so that when you bite down, your bite is not altered in any way. This is done with care because even one ridge out of place can lead to discomfort while eating.

Dental fillings in Florence used to only be made of amalgam.  While silver (amalgam) fillings were widely popular and incredibly effective they have always had one major problem – their appearance.  They stand out so if you want to look like you have never had cavities, they are not for you.  Fortunately, we have an alternative solution and can offer you natural looking tooth colored fillings that blend in with your remaining tooth structure.  That way you can smile with confidence and not have to worry about someone noticing your dental restorations.  To learn more or to schedule an appointment, call our office today.
