Air Abrasion
Air abrasion is a gentle, minimally invasive technique used to remove tooth decay and prepare teeth for fillings. Unlike traditional drills, air abrasion uses a fine stream of particles and air to painlessly remove decayed material. This method is quiet, precise, and often requires no anesthesia, making it a comfortable alternative, especially for patients who are apprehensive about dental procedures.
Dental Fillings
Dental fillings are a common and effective way to restore teeth damaged by decay. At Manchester Family Dental, we offer both amalgam (silver) and composite (tooth-colored) fillings.
- Amalgam fillings are known for their durability and strength, making them suitable for restoring molars that endure heavy bite pressure.
- Composite fillings, on the other hand, are made of a resin material that matches the color of your teeth, providing a more natural appearance.
Both types of fillings are reliable solutions for restoring the integrity of decayed teeth.
Root Canal Therapy
Root canal therapy is a treatment used to save a tooth that is badly decayed or infected. During this procedure, the infected or inflamed pulp is removed, and the inside of the tooth is carefully cleaned and disinfected. It’s then filled and sealed with a material called gutta-percha.
Contrary to common misconceptions, root canal therapy is a painless procedure that provides outcomes that can last a lifetime, preserving your natural tooth and preventing further issues.
Ceramic Crowns
Ceramic crowns are custom-made caps placed over a damaged or weakened tooth to restore its shape, size, strength, and appearance. These crowns are made from high-quality ceramic material that mimics the translucency and color of natural teeth. They are an excellent choice for restoring front teeth due to their aesthetic appeal and can also be used on molars, thanks to their durability.
Tooth Extractions
While our primary goal is to save natural teeth, sometimes a tooth extraction is necessary. Tooth extractions at Manchester Family Dental are performed with the utmost care and precision. We offer both simple extractions (for visible teeth) and surgical extractions (for teeth that are broken at the gum line or not fully erupted). Our team ensures your comfort throughout the procedure and provides detailed aftercare instructions for a smooth recovery.
Dental Bridges
Dental bridges are used to replace one or more missing teeth. They consist of artificial teeth anchored by crowns on the adjacent teeth or by dental implants. We offer both removable and fixed bridges, depending on your needs and preferences. Removable bridges can be taken out for cleaning, while fixed bridges are cemented into place and offer more stability.
Dentures
Dentures are a traditional solution for replacing missing teeth. We provide both partial and complete dentures, depending on the extent of your tooth loss. Partial dentures are suitable for patients who still have some natural teeth remaining, while complete dentures are used when all teeth are missing.
Our dentures are custom-designed to fit comfortably and look natural, restoring your ability to eat, speak, and smile confidently.
Full-Mouth Restoration
For patients with extensive dental issues, full-mouth restoration combines various restorative treatments to completely rehabilitate your smile. This comprehensive approach may include a combination of fillings, crowns, bridges, implants, and more, tailored to address your specific dental needs.
Our team works closely with you to design a treatment plan that restores function and aesthetics and considers your comfort and overall oral health.
