Seeking professional care for missing teeth is a vital step in protecting the health and quality of your smile. For men and women looking for lasting solutions for tooth replacement in the White Plains area, AZ Dental is pleased to provide natural-looking dental implants. A fixed implant is composed of a sturdy screw that functions as a stand-in tooth root. A unique crown, bridge, or full arch is used as the erupted part of the lost tooth (or teeth). You can learn more about the benefits of dental implants by scheduling an evaluation at our practice.
Missing teeth can affect more than just the look of your smile — gaps in your mouth can cause your remaining teeth to shift out of place, potentially leading to added tension when you bite, pain while you’re chewing, or even speech problems. A dental bridge or crown restores the appearance and health of your smile by filling in spaces using a false tooth supported by either dental implants, your natural teeth, or a combination of both.
Root Canal Therapy
When decay manages to reach deep into the inside of a tooth, it’s more than just painful — it’s a threat to your overall oral health. That’s why we urge patients in and around the White Plains area to schedule an examination as soon as possible when signs of infection start to become apparent. Aside from saving you from tooth loss, the benefits of root canal therapy at Az Dental include:
Tooth extraction
At AZ Dental, we strive to help our patients preserve their natural smile, even in cases of severe decay or damage. However, there are times when the best way to save your smile is to remove one or more teeth.
What Are the Benefits of Tooth Extractions?
While no one is ever excited to learn they need to have a tooth extraction, the truth is that this procedure is sometimes the best way to preserve the health of your smile. Tooth extractions at AZ Dental White Plains can provide a variety of benefits, including:
Dental bridges and Crown:
At AZ Dental White Plains, NY, we offer dental bridges and crowns with high-quality materials to help give you back your beautiful smile. Once the damaged area has been taken care of, we’ll take a digital impression of the tooth using our intraoral scanner. These scans will be sent to a dental facility where your custom crown or bridge will be constructed. In the meantime, we will install a temporary crown to allow you to talk and eat comfortably.
You’ll schedule a follow-up visit at AZ dental a few weeks later so that you can have the temporary taken off and the custom crown, bridge bonded to your tooth or dental implant. If you have missing teeth, please schedule a consultation at our White Plains, NY office to get more information about how a custom bridge and Crown can give you back your smile
