Ready to transform your smile? Restorative dental solutions at our Waxhaw dental office include:
Same-Day Dental Crowns
CEREC same-day dental crowns are an ultra-convenient solution that allows our dentist to restore your smile in a single visit. The permanent crown is created and placed using a specialized machine without needing a second visit. These crowns are durable and long-lasting, ideal for patients who avoid multiple dental office trips. The procedure involves filing down the tooth, taking digital impressions, and fabricating the crown on-site. Once completed, the crown is securely placed and adjusted for comfort.
Tooth-Colored Dental Fillings
Dental fillings treat cavities by replacing degraded areas in the teeth with tooth-colored material. They prevent further decay and maintain tooth structure. The procedure is suitable for most patients and provides long-lasting results. Decay is removed, and the filling material is placed and hardened with a special light. Our state-of-the-art fillings are designed to last!
Dental Bridges
A dental bridge is a common and affordable way to replace a missing tooth by connecting it to adjacent teeth using a pontic or false tooth. At Strive Dental Studio, they offer traditional bridges and those fixed with dental implants. Bridges improve the appearance and functionality of your teeth and are a less invasive alternative to implants. They are suitable for individuals who prefer a quick solution or are unsuitable for implants. Proper care can ensure that a dental bridge lasts for decades.
Dental Implants
Dr. Mahale specializes in replacing missing teeth with dental implants that are natural in appearance and function. The process involves a titanium post implanted in the jawbone and a restoration crown. Our dental implant systems include single, implant-retained, hybrid, and overdentures.
Removable Dentures
Dentures and partials are prosthetic appliances that improve the aesthetics and functionality of your smile. Partial dentures replace a few missing teeth. Dentures are needed when a patient misses many or all of their teeth. A dental examination and x-rays are conducted to determine the need for dentures. The denture creation process involves taking impressions of the teeth and gums, color and gum matching, and fitting adjustments. Dentures typically last around seven years before replacement is necessary.
Dental Inlays & Onlays
Inlays and onlays are durable restorations used to repair decayed or broken teeth. They are smaller than dental crowns but offer more stability than fillings. These restorations are ideal for deep cavities, broken teeth, or large fillings. The procedure involves two appointments: the first for preparing the tooth and taking impressions, and the second for placing and adjusting the restoration. Inlays and onlays are a long-lasting alternative to crowns and fillings, perfectly blending with your natural smile.
Dental Bonding
Dental bonding improves the appearance of your smile by covering gaps, stains, cracks, and uneven teeth. It utilizes shade-matched, tooth-colored materials and can last for about ten years. Dental bonding suits older teens and adults who need minor dental work and prefer a non-invasive option. The procedure typically takes around half an hour and involves applying a bonding agent and composite resin, which is then shaped and hardened with a specialized light. Bonded teeth can be cared for through regular brushing and flossing.
