Cracked Teeth

Help, I Broke a Tooth!

Like bones, teeth are incredibly resilient and built to withstand the pressure and wear and tear that come with everyday activities like biting and chewing food. But they are not immune to damage, and anything from biting into a piece of hard candy to the impact from a fall or a sports injury can cause a tooth to break.

Root Canal Treatment

Root Canal Treatment

The term root canal comes from cleaning of the canals inside the tooth’s root. During a root canal procedure, the nerve and pulp are removed, and the inside of the tooth is cleaned and sealed.

Root canal treatment is needed when the blood or nerve supply of the tooth (known as the pulp) is infected through decay or injury. Root canals are common procedures and can help save your tooth from extraction. Dentists have been safely and expertly performing root canal procedures for many years. Your teeth are meant to last a lifetime.

Inlays and Onlays

Inlays and Onlays

Most people believe that when their dentist finds a cavity, their only option is a standard dental filling. While this works for small cavities, sometimes you need a filling that bridges the gap between a small filling and a dental crown. Dental inlays can be that bridge.

You might wonder how someone on the street is blessed with straight white teeth. It is possible they may have been professionally straightened with braces or whitened by a dentist. More likely their appearance has been improved by dental veneers.
