Dental Crowns & Fixed Bridges

A dental crown is designed to fully cover the remaining shape of a natural tooth, restoring much-needed strength, protection, and aesthetic value without requiring extraction. Our doctors recommend crowns in several situations, including:

Dental team member providing preventive dentistry Crowns are also an important component of dental bridges, which are designed to restore one or more fully missing teeth in a row. When having a new dental bridge placed, it’s required that healthy teeth still remain on either side of the gap – here, our team will place dental crowns to serve as “anchors” that keep the bridge securely in place. Many patients prefer the sturdy fit of fixed bridges compared to the relative looseness of traditional dentures; implant-retained prosthetics are also available for an even more lifelike fit.

Consider taking advantage of our cutting-edge CEREC technology offered at our modern dental office. This relatively new solution to repairing damaged smiles is intended to speed up the overall process of getting your dental crown. Our team will make sure your same day crown is fitted correctly at the end of only one visit. You will be amazed at how fast it works!

Root Canal Therapy

When a tooth has become decayed enough that fillings and crowns can’t restore health, root canal therapy is the final line of defense before extraction. During this procedure, our doctors will remove diseased pulp from the inner workings of the tooth and clean away bacteria, sealing the area thoroughly to prevent further infection. A custom crown placed over the tooth can improve its strength and function as a final touch.

While root canal therapy tends to have a bad reputation, the honest truth is that the procedure is similar in discomfort to getting a simple filling. Plus, its high success rate means patients can maintain their wholly natural smiles that much longer.

Full & Partial Dentures

Dentures are removable appliances that are designed to restore several teeth at once, whether on the same arch or spread over the entire mouth. At Costello & DeHart Dental Excellence, we offer both partial and full models, depending on your needs. The traditional options are removable, allowing patients to store them separately at night and practice hygiene more easily. If you’re looking for a more permanent option regarding your tooth loss, talk to our doctors and staff members about the possibility of upgrading to implant-retained dentures!
