Dental Crowns

Crowning Glory

If you have dental crowns made of gold or resin that doesn't match your teeth, you may not notice the contrast very often. But even if your crown is on a back tooth, when you speak or laugh, others will notice if you have a gold crown in the midst of otherwise white teeth. For patients in and near Del Mar who are concerned about the natural-looking appeal of their teeth, Dr. Coleman is able to replace old, unnaturally-colored dental crowns with new porcelain dental crowns which are virtually indistinguishable from your natural teeth.

Are You Eating What You Want, Or What You can?

Implants can restore your dental health

Do you have trouble eating certain foods? Do missing teeth or poorly fitting dentures determine what you can eat? Wouldn’t it be great to eat anything you want, just like when you were a kid? How much would that change the quality of your life?

 

If you have difficulty eating certain foods, or you avoid food you would love to eat because of missing teeth or poorly fitting dentures, you could be a candidate for dental implants.

 

Dental implants are titanium screws that resemble the roots of the teeth and are placed into the jaw where a tooth was lost. The implant knits to the bone over a couple of months, and once secure, is restored with a crown or non-removable bridge.

 

Implants can also be used to retain removable full or partial dentures. They can make your denture so secure, you will be able to eat whatever you want without your denture moving all over!

The Benefits of Dental Implants

Dental bridges and partial dentures are options for replacing missing teeth. However, dental implants are much more durable and longer lasting because the tooth and the root are replaced. The tooth replacement ends up being stronger as a result.

Other benefits of dental implants include:
