Dental Crowns
When a tooth has a cavity or fracture that involves half the width of the tooth or more, it needs to be covered with a crown.

A dental crown is a tooth-shaped “cap” that is placed over a tooth to cover the tooth to restore its shape and size, strength, and improve its appearance…
Dental Implants
Dental implant surgery is surgery performed in stages: Your damaged tooth is removed. Your jawbone is prepared for surgery, a process that may involve bone grafting. After your jawbone heals, your oral surgeon places the dental implant metal post into your jawbone.

Periodontics
As teeth become loose, they can cause differences in the way your mouth “feels” when biting or chewing. Once bacteria causes infection around the tooth root, biting down can cause pressure, that may result in pain in and around the tooth and gum. Our surgeons may also recommend dental crown lengthening to make a restorative or cosmetic dental procedure possible. Perhaps your tooth is decayed…
