Restorative Dentist Pompano Beach FL | JB Dentistry

When a tooth is damaged, rotting, or even lost, it is critical to have it replaced as soon as possible. This ensures that additional damage does not occur and that the patient does not have to battle for an excessive amount of time with a loss of oral function and appearance. In situations like these, Jaline Boccuzzi, DMD, AAACD frequently recommends a lifelike and long-lasting treatment in the form of a custom dental crown and/or bridge.

Dental crowns are constructed to cover the section of the tooth that is white and visible, restoring its shape and providing protection in a way that seems and feels natural to the patient. Crowns are recommended by our experts in Pompano Beach, Florida for a variety of reasons, including tooth decay that is too severe to be treated with a filling, an overall weaker structure, a substantial injury, cosmetic issues, and as the finishing touch for a root canal or dental implant operation. In the majority of instances, the effective placement of dental crowns will require a total of two sessions. The first appointment will consist of taking impressions and the installation of a temporary crown, and the second appointment will be planned once your permanent crown is ready.

A dental bridge is a treatment for replacing missing teeth that is made up of many dental crowns that have been bonded together to produce a strong structure. If there are still healthy teeth on either side of the gap, they can be used in any region where there are one or more missing teeth in a row. However, this does require that there be healthy teeth on either side of the gap. Because of this, our staff is able to secure additional crowns over these teeth, which are necessary in order to keep the bridge in place. Bridges, much like dental crowns, often take anywhere from two to three appointments in order to be developed and effectively put.

If tooth decay is detected and treated in a timely manner, then the cavities that have formed as a direct result of the decay can be easily corrected using a filling. You may be concerned about the effect that having fillings made of gold or other metals will have on your smile, despite the fact that these fillings are accessible. Composite resin is a tooth-colored material that can be shaded to blend in with the enamel and molded to fit the surrounding dental structure. If you want a solution that is easier on the eyes, you might want to explore using composite resin.

Dentures have been used to replace missing teeth for hundreds of years, and now in Pompano Beach, Florida, patients have access to alternatives that are more visually acceptable and durable than ever before. Dentures can also be used to fill gaps left by missing teeth. Full dentures are meant to replace entire dental arches, and in most cases, they are able to remain in place within a patient’s smile with the help of either the patient’s natural suction or some denture glue for additional support and stability.

On the other hand, partial dentures imitate a certain configuration of teeth on just one dental arch. Clips and brackets are used to firmly fix them in place once they are placed there. Both of these choices can be removed easily for your convenience.

Are you interested in finding a tooth loss treatment that is more lifelike? Implant-retained dentures are another service that is provided by us. These are similar to the traditional types, but they have been developed to snap over implants that have already been inserted, which results in a highly secure fit overall. The patient can choose between a fixed option and a removable option, depending on which one better suits their needs.

We can handle most root canal therapy cases in just one visit! This technique is required when teeth have gotten so deteriorated that a dental crown cannot restore their health. Instead of extracting it, we can gently enter the inside chamber and thoroughly remove microorganisms, leaving your natural smile intact.

The following are common symptoms that signal the need for root canal therapy:

• A shift in the color of the tooth, typically from white to a darker gray.
• Discomfort or lack of sensation in the gums surrounding a particular tooth.
• Gum tissue inflammation around a specific tooth.
• Significant discomfort when a specific tooth is chewed on or tapped in any way.
• Extreme sensitivity to extreme hot or cold conditions.

Despite its fearsome reputation, advances in technology and anaesthetic have made root canal therapy, in most situations, no more unpleasant than obtaining a standard filling. Jaline Boccuzzi, DMD, AAACD is also pleased to provide sedation dentistry to make patients feel more at ease during their operation. Furthermore, the surgery has a high success rate, and many repaired teeth last the patient’s entire life!

Do you have a tooth that can’t be restored with a crown because the gum line was broken off beneath the tooth? Are you experiencing a severe toothache that root canal therapy is unable to alleviate? Is there a tooth that can impede your smile’s rest from acquiring the appropriate orthodontic correction? All of these circumstances may necessitate tooth extraction, and we will be on hand to make sure it goes as smoothly and comfortably as possible.

The final teeth that erupt in a patient’s permanent grin are their third molars, also referred to as their wisdom teeth. Due to their tardy entrance, they frequently don’t have enough space, which can create a number of potentially catastrophic issues, including crowding, impaction, infection, abscesses, and more. In Pompano Beach, Florida, we remove one or more of your wisdom teeth to safeguard your oral health and general wellbeing. With the use of digital X-rays, we will closely monitor the situation. If she decides that the treatment is necessary, our staff will make sure to guide you through it as comfortably and painlessly as possible. For additional comfort and pain reduction, sedation dentistry is also an option!
