Porcelain Veneers
Veneers are thin, porcelain shells that are customized to fit your teeth and repair slight cosmetic damage. They are usually used to fix teeth that are:
- Discolored
- Worn-Down
- Chipped or Broken
- Misaligned or Irregularly Shaped
- Gapped
After an initial consultation and evaluation involving possible x-rays, an impression will be made of the tooth/teeth that need to be repaired and sent to the lab that creates the veneer.
After 2 to 4 weeks, once we have the porcelain veneer, we will place it on your teeth and trim it to ensure a perfect fit before permanently bonding it to your tooth!
With properly applied veneers you’ll receive these advantages:
- A Natural Appearance
- Tolerated Well By Gums
- Stain Resistance
- Don’t Require as Much Shaping
The best part? With proper care, veneers can last for up to 15 years!
Bridges
There are many different ways someone can lose a tooth:
- Injury
- Gum Disease
- Cavities
- Certain Bodily Conditions (Diabetes, High Blood Pressure, Arthritis)
No one wants to lose any teeth, but sometimes life has other plans. Not only can losing one or multiple teeth negatively impact your appearance and confidence, but it can also lead to complications like:
- Bone Loss
- Gum Disease
- Misaligned/Crooked Teeth
- Bite Problems
We at
The Lakes Family Dental are proud to offer multiple options to replace missing teeth, including dental bridges. Bridges are custom-made replacement teeth to fill the gap(s) in your mouth where teeth may be missing.
This process may take multiple visits and consists of:
- Placing crowns on the teeth on either side of your gap.
- Having a temporary bridge put in place while the real bridge is crafted.
- Installing the bridge and checking up on progress.
With proper application and care, dental bridges can last for up to 15 years! Plus they come with a long list of benefits, including:
- Restoring Your Smile
- Restoring Your Chewing and Speaking Ability
- Maintaining the Shape of Your Face
- Preventing Further Misalignment and Tooth Loss
Composite Fillings
Most people in the United States have had to get a cavity filled at least once in their lifetime. There are several different materials that are used for fillings, but the one we recommend the most that have been becoming increasingly popular over recent years is composite fillings.
Composite fillings are made with reinforced acrylic resin and they look more natural than other fillings options. But that’s not all the benefits that come with composite fillings:
- They can be customized to fit any shade of teeth.
- They bind to tooth enamel well and are less likely to come loose.
- They can fix small cosmetic flaws, like chips.
With proper application and care, composite fillings can last for more than seven years!
In Conclusion…
No one wants to go through life with their confidence drained by a less-than-ideal smile thanks to things like:
- Missing Teeth
- Stained or Yellow Teeth
- Chipped/Broken Teeth
That’s why Dr. Jeffrey Alvarado and the team at
