Full Mouth Reconstruction - San Jose, CA

A dental crown also called a tooth cap, covers the entire visible part of a tooth, providing protection and aesthetic improvement. In San Jose, CA, crowns are essential for safeguarding teeth with significant damage, decay, or following root canal therapy. They not only strengthen teeth but also enhance their appearance.

Dental bridges, on the other hand, use crowns placed on healthy teeth adjacent to a gap to support a false tooth (pontic). This prevents neighboring teeth from shifting, restores jaw function, and improves chewing and speech. While bridges can restore facial shape, it's important to note that bone loss may occur underneath the false tooth.

Occlusion describes how your upper and lower teeth fit together when chewing or with your mouth closed. Occlusal adjustment involves carefully altering tooth surfaces to remove interferences (high points) and improve how your teeth come together. A quick and straightforward occlusal adjustment is often required after getting a filling, inlay, onlay, dental crown, or bridge.

Invisalign® Clear Aligners utilizes a sequence of clear, removable aligners to effectively straighten teeth free from the discomfort of traditional metal wires and brackets. Each set of aligners is worn for approximately two weeks and only removed for eating, drinking, and oral care, allowing gradual and gentle alignment throughout 12 to 18 months.

This treatment method provides convenience and comfort and ensures consistent progress toward achieving the desired teeth alignment and a confident smile.
