Dental Crowns, Bridges and Implants in Snellville - Carter Family Dentistry - Smile Repair
Patients with extensive tooth decay, significant damage from an accident, esthetic concerns, or missing teeth can benefit from restorations by our father and son dental team at
Carter Family Dentistry. Our dentists provide treatments with custom-created esthetic restorations to repair teeth and restore dental function.
Saving Teeth with Restorative Care
Drs. Stephen and Scott Carter are passionate about helping patients achieve full, beautiful smiles. Our conservative treatment plans are focused on saving your natural tooth structure by using minimally invasive treatments whenever possible. To meet these goals, we utilize a local lab to create custom restorations that result in a lasting investment in your smile. Our restorations are fabricated with the highest quality materials to provide both strength and function in concert with beautiful esthetics.
Whether you are missing one or more teeth, have chipped or decayed enamel, we offer an array of esthetic restorations, such as:
Crowns
If a tooth is weak due to cracks or decay, a crown may be recommended to strengthen the tooth and protect it from continued deterioration. For more extensive services, such as root canal treatment, crowns are used to protect and seal the tooth, preventing tooth fracture or infection. We use all porcelain zirconia and e.max® crowns for a cosmetic enhancement that matches the rest of your smile.
Veneers
Made from thin wafers of porcelain, dental veneers are recommended for patients who are looking to improve their smile but have otherwise healthy teeth. Porcelain veneers are shade-matched, and can cover small imperfections such as discoloration, chips, misalignment, and gaps between neighboring teeth.
Bridges
Bridges are a treatment option for patients missing one or more teeth. In order to replace the missing tooth, neighboring teeth are used as anchors. They serve as support for the fake tooth, or the pontic, which replaces the missing tooth.
Treatment Alternatives: Replacing Failing Teeth
At Carter Family Dentistry, we do our utmost to provide teeth-saving solutions. However, for patients who qualify, we provide dental implant solutions.
Dental implants are made out of a biocompatible titanium alloy that acts as the missing tooth root. This innovative treatment replaces the entire tooth and supports bone preservation, preventing facial collapse. Depending on the number of missing teeth in your smile, there are a variety of restorations that can be added to Nobel BioCare® implants such as:
- Single implant-supported porcelain crowns
- Multiple implant-supported porcelain bridges
- Multiple implant-supported dentures using Zest® Locator attachments
Dr. Scott B. Carter teaches dental implant placement to colleagues and general dentists at the Medical College of Georgia. His passion in providing the latest techniques and treatments is showcased with his in-depth knowledge of dental implant surgery and restoration. He walks patients through the whole treatment process, and answers any questions they may have about their procedure. He is focused on maintaining optimal dental health and beautiful smiles.
