Implant Dentistry
A dental implant is an artificial tooth root (synthetic material) that is surgically anchored into your jaw to hold a replacement tooth or bridge in place. The benefit of using implants is that they don't rely on neighboring teeth for support, they are fixed and stable. Implants are a good solution to tooth loss because they look and feel like natural teeth.

When was the last time you tasted a crisp autumn apple or enjoyed summer corn? If you avoid smiling or eating in public because your denture may slip or a space left by a missing tooth may show, dental implants may be an option for you.

Implant patients come from all ages and backgrounds. Some can no longer wear removable dentures; others don't want to. Whatever your particular circumstances, dental implants can provide a sense of security and well-being that can't be matched.

   
Crowns
(Full Porcelain and/or Gold)
All-porcelain crowns (also called caps) are a beautiful, long-lasting choice. The procedure involves reducing and carefully shaping the supporting tooth, creating an impression from which a model of the prepared teeth are made, and having the crown fabricated (usually in a dental lab), then fitting and permanently cementing or bonding the crown in place.
   
Composite Fillings
Until recently you had no choice about the color of your fillings. Now you can have old silver or gold fillings replaced with nearly invisible porcelain or resin restorations.

   
Full Porcelain Inlays/Onlays
To repair damage involving over ½ of the tooth’s biting surface, rather than using a simple filling, or a crown, Dr. Beck can construct an inlay, or an onlay.

   
Wisdom Teeth
When the jaw isn't large enough to accommodate wisdom teeth, they can become impacted (unable to come in or misaligned). Wisdom teeth may grow sideways, emerge only part way from the gum or remain trapped beneath the gum and bone. When this happens, problems develop that ofen require their removal.
