Information About Dental Implants, Crowns, Braces and More

Replace missing teeth with dental implants

Implants are like your teeth and feel so natural that you may forget that you ever lost your teeth. Provided you have good oral and general health, implants are better than dentures and bridges.

Dental implants are the roots made of titanium or zirconia, which are surgically placed below your gum line into your jawbone. After a healing period, your dentist places crowns or bridges over them.

Same Day Dental Implants

Same-day dental implants can be a great way to replace missing teeth, especially if you have only one missing front tooth. The same-day implant procedure is getting popular, however, the chance of implant failure is higher.

Zirconia vs Titanium Dental Implants

Titanium has been used for decades in implant dentistry. Zirconia is widely used for crowns, but it is relatively new as an implant material.

Full Mouth Dental Implants

If most / all of your teeth are missing, a full mouth dental implant procedure is used to replace all your teeth. It is a complex and rather expensive procedure.

Get your smile back with dental crowns

A dental crown is an artificial cap placed on a cracked/damaged tooth to re-establish its size, shape, appearance, and improve its strength.

Crowns not only protect the damaged tooth but also give you a great smile - especially the newer types, like zirconia or E-max.

Dental Crown Cost

The price of a dental crown can be anywhere between $500 and $2500, depending on the dentist, the material of the crown, and some other factors. In this article, we try to gather most of the factors that affect crown prices.

CEREC Crowns

Same-day CEREC crowns offer a fast and affordable alternative to traditional crowns. Their main advantage is that only one visit is required to the dentist and your crown is prepared and fitted within an hour.

Porcelain Crowns

Porcelain is probably the most esthetic material. Porcelain restorations pretty much look like your natural teeth.

Straighten misaligned teeth with braces

Crooked, twisted, or overlapping teeth? Braces can go a long way in correcting these issues.

The traditional metal braces provide the most affordable and very effective solution but the newer invisible braces - like Invisalign - are also great.
