Crowns : Crowns (caps) can be done in gold but are predominantly done with porcelain over a base of precious or semi-precious metal. A crown is needed if the tooth has a very large filling that is beginning to wear down, or if the tooth is cracked or after a root canal treatment.
Dentures : Dentures are removable appliances fabricated to replace missing teeth. If all teeth are missing a complete denture is made. If only some teeth are missing, a partial denture is made. A partial denture hooks around some of the remaining teeth to help stabilize the denture.
Implants : An implant is a permanent way to replace a tooth. The procedure consists of several stages. An oral surgeon must place a screw into the bone. After this surgery the Oral Surgeon will attach an abutment to the implant. Doctor Eddy would then create a crown or a denture to be placed over the implant and abutment.
Bridges : A bridge is a permanent fixture of crowns used to replace a missing tooth or series of teeth.
Denture Repairs : If there is a problem with a denture, it can be dropped off in the morning for same day repair.
