Restorative Composite Fillings (Cavities)
Cavities are damaged areas in the hard surface of your teeth that develop into tiny openings or holes. Cavities, also called tooth decay or caries, are caused by a combination of factors, including bacteria in your mouth, frequent snacking, sipping sugary drinks, and not cleaning your teeth well.
Cavities and tooth decay are among the world's most common health problems. They are especially common in children, teenagers, and older adults. But anyone who has teeth can get cavities, including infants.
If cavities are not treated, they get larger and affect deeper layers of your teeth. They can lead to severe toothache, infection, and tooth loss. Regular dental visits and good brushing and flossing habits are your best protection against cavities and tooth decay.
Endodontic Treatment (root canal treatment) A root canal is a treatment used to repair and save a tooth that is badly decayed or infected. A tooth's nerve and pulp can become irritated, inflamed, and infected due to deep decay or trauma.
Oral Surgery – teeth extractions with a local anesthetic may be given to reduce any discomfort.
Dr. Alyssa S. Bernstein treats all her patients in a comprehensive manner. There are minor root canal treatments, periodontal procedures, and oral surgery performed in the office. Every patient is treated individually; therefore, we will refer you to the best specialist in the area for a more extensive procedure.
Porcelain Crowns - A dental crown is a tooth-shaped "cap" that is placed over a tooth to cover the tooth and restore its shape and size, strength, and improve its appearance.
Bridges - A dental bridge involves creating a crown for the tooth on either side of a missing tooth, with a pontic in between. Traditional bridges are the most common type of bridge and are made of either porcelain fused to metal or ceramics.
Full and Partial Dentures - A denture is a removable replacement for missing teeth and surrounding tissues. Full/ Complete dentures are used when all the teeth are missing in the arch, while partial dentures are used when some natural teeth remain.
Partial Denture
Implant Crowns - A dental implant is an artificial tooth root. It resembles a small screw that is inserted into your jaw bone where the missing tooth was. It is used to hold a fake tooth or crown that will look and function like a natural tooth.
Implant Bridges
Implant-supported bridges use dental implants as opposed to crowns or frameworks. Typically, one implant is surgically placed for every missing tooth, and these implants hold the bridge in position.
Implant Supported Dentures combine the advantages of dental implants and conventional dentures. They are sometimes called overdentures and are a more permanent alternative.
Porcelain Veneers - Veneers can improve the aesthetics of a smile and protect the tooth's surface from damage. A porcelain veneer is a thin layer that covers only the surface of the tooth and generally used for aesthetic purposes.
