Restorative
DENTISTRY
Our work at Jefferson Valley Dental will help you repair and replace your teeth to make your smile brighter than ever
Crowns and Bridges
You can erase years of wear and tear with porcelain crowns. Our dentists use a tooth-like crown made of porcelain, gold, or silver to restore your tooth after the decay has been removed. Crowns are also used to restore chipped or broken teeth, gaps in teeth, and other damage. Also called “caps,” porcelain crowns mimic natural-looking teeth in both shape and color.
​
If a tooth is too damaged to have a crown, it can be removed and replaced with a porcelain bridge, which uses the adjacent teeth as supports for a three-tooth porcelain structure. A bridge may need to be replaced after several years but they offer a fast and affordable way to replace a lost tooth.
Implants - Restoration
Looking for a permanent replacement to a lost tooth? Dental implants could be the perfect solution. A dental implant is a titanium post that is surgically inserted into the jawbone, where the bone will grow around and integrate with the titanium providing a more permanent base for a new porcelain tooth. For more on implants see our "Implant" tab under Services.
Implant Supported Dentures
While typical dentures shift and require the use of denture adhesives to keep them in place, implants fit solidly, reducing the problems associated with traditional dentures, such as gum sores and difficulty speaking and chewing. Implant-supported dentures distribute your biting pressure more like natural teeth than traditional dentures, stimulating the supportive structures of your teeth and preventing the bone and soft tissues from shrinking away. You can replace an entire set of teeth with beautiful, natural-looking implants.
Dentures
After a tooth loss, your appearance transforms, and your confidence can fade. With dentures, you can regain your confident, normal life even after the loss of your teeth. Offering only the most advanced, removable dentures to best fit you, our team will guide you every step of the way. Our team creates custom dentures made especially for you and helps you select the shade and shape. You walk away with great fitting dentures that look just like natural teeth, and smiling is just the beginning.
Partial Dentures
Partial dentures are used if you have several teeth missing that cannot be corrected with a bridge. A partial denture is created to replace those teeth. The partial denture is removable and is designed to fit comfortably, blending in with any remaining teeth. This type of denture is made from a synthetic material that is supported with a lightweight metal. It mimics your gum tissue and teeth to create a natural-looking smile, while still remaining functional. The partial denture is important once the teeth have been removed in order to preserve the bone and to keep existing teeth from tilting and growing in towards the gaps.
