DENTAL VENEERS

Dental Veneers are recommended if you have gaps in your teeth or if you have had trouble with teeth whitening. We recommend that you evaluate the cost of porcelain veneers and determine whether they are a good fit for you.

DENTAL BONDING

Dental bonding uses a tooth-colored putty-like resin that is applied to the tooth and hardened with an ultraviolet or laser light, bonding the material to the tooth. Your dentist then trims, shapes, and polishes it to look and feel like your other teeth. Bonding can repair decayed, chipped, cracked, or misshapen teeth and is a good cosmetic alternative to amalgam or silver fillings. Bonding usually takes about 30 to 60 minutes and is a fairly straightforward procedure in most cases.

Dental Crowns — Marysville, WA — Jeffrey L. Erwin DDS

DENTAL CROWNS

A dental crown (also called a cap) fits over and replaces the entire decayed or damaged tooth above the gum line to restore its shape, size, and appearance. Crowns keep a weak tooth from breaking and can function to hold a cracked tooth together. They can be used cosmetically to cover misshapen or discolored teeth. Our crowns can be made from porcelain-fused-to-metal, resin, or ceramic and vary in cost based on the condition of the tooth or teeth we are working on. We promise that our Marysville office will make you feel as comfortable as possible throughout the entire process.

Dental Implants — Marysville, WA — Jeffrey L. Erwin DDS

DENTAL IMPLANTS

Dental implants are replacement teeth with a titanium core inserted into the missing tooth's bone socket. As the jawbone heals, it grows around the implanted titanium post, anchoring it securely in the jaw and providing a solid foundation for a replacement tooth. Dental implants are artificial tooth root replacements used as a part of prosthetic (artificial replacement) dentistry to compensate for tooth loss, or severely damaged teeth. Often, the result is an enhanced smile and a more youthful appearance.

FULL MOUTH RECONSTRUCTION

While consulting with you about a smile makeover to improve the aesthetics and appearance of your smile, your dentist may discover that there is a need to correct functional problems and issues with your bite, muscles, teeth, and bone structure. If you need full mouth reconstruction, the materials available today allow your dentist to provide you with highly durable, functional and clinically sound treatments that look very natural.

Inlays and Onlays — Marysville, WA — Jeffrey L. Erwin DDS

INLAYS AND ONLAYS

Inlays and onlays (also called indirect fillings) are made from gold, porcelain, or composite materials and fill decayed or damaged teeth. Dental fillings are molded during an office visit and then created in a dental laboratory to be bonded into place. When the filling material is bonded within the center of a tooth it is called an “inlay”. When the filling includes one or more points of the tooth or covers the biting surface it is called an “onlay”. Inlays and onlays are designed to preserve as much healthy tooth as possible and are an alternative option to crowns.

Root Canals — Marysville, WA — Jeffrey L. Erwin DDS

ROOT CANALS

A root canal is a treatment for a tooth that is severely cracked or damaged, and the pulp on the inside of the tooth has become inflamed, infected, diseased or dead. The pulp chamber is the hollow part in the center of the tooth that consists of nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissues, and it continues down canals that extend through the roots of teeth into the jawbone. Some teeth have roots with more than one root canal, but all teeth have at least one root canal. Root canal treatments are usually completed in one or two office visits, depending on the presence of infection condition of the tooth being treated.
