If you have a tooth that is broken or badly decayed and is past the point of repairing with a filling, inlay or onlay, you may need a crown to restore the function and aesthetics of your smile. Crowns are tooth-shaped caps made from a durable, natural-looking tooth colored porcelain to look, feel, and function just like your natural teeth.

Crowns do require some preparation of the natural tooth to ensure the best fit and strongest bond. Having a crown placed usually requires two appointments.

If you’re missing a single tooth or multiple teeth, you may be in need of a bridge. Bridges generally consist of one or more fabricated teeth, anchored to surrounding teeth on either side with the help of crowns. To fix your bridge in place, some preparation of the natural teeth is necessary to place the crowns. We do have removable options available, but we highly recommend fixed bridges for the most natural look, feel and function.At Wince Family Dental Associates, our 3D imaging machine makes having your bridge created easier than ever before. Durable, natural looking tooth colored porcelain perfectly blends in with your natural teeth and can withstand the high biting and chewing forces in your mouth.

If you’re missing most or all of your natural teeth or living with ill-fitting dentures that rock and slip, we would love to help you secure your smile with our modern denture options. We love creating custom dentures made from the most durable, natural looking ceramics and acrylic that allow our patients to live a life without worrying about their teeth.

Partial Dentures

If you’re missing many teeth, but still have some healthy teeth intact, we can help you get back what you’ve lost, without throwing in the towel entirely. We can fit you with a partial denture to replace missing teeth, leaving room for your natural teeth to remain. Partial dentures are typically removable appliances, anchored to surrounding teeth with metal bars and clasps. Once in place, no one will be able to tell the difference.

All-on-4™ Teeth in a Day

The All-on-4™ treatment concept replaces your missing teeth with a full dental bridge supported by only four dental implants. The back implants are placed at an angle, so they can support more teeth with fewer implants. With fewer implants needed, the overall treatment time is reduced. The unique All-on-4™ solution also ensures greater stability in the bone, reducing the need for bone graft surgery to increase bone volume. The All-on-4™ Teeth in a Day system allows us to place implants and secure a full denture the same day, so you don’t have to go several months without arch, like with traditional implant placement.

Implant Supported Dentures

If you are a candidate, we highly recommend securing your dentures with dental implants. Implant dentures help prevent jawbone deterioration and offer the highest level of security for your dentures. Implant supported dentures can be fixed in place so you never have to worry about taking them out for soaking – they can be cleaned and maintained like natural teeth. What about hard, crunchy, sticky foods? No match for implant supported dentures created by our skilled dental team at Wince Family Dental Associates.
