Start with the problem you want to solve
A damaged tooth you want to keep
A dental crown covers an existing tooth and can help restore its strength, shape and appearance when enough healthy structure remains. It may be appropriate for a weakened or broken tooth that can be preserved. The condition of the tooth guides that decision.
One or more missing teeth
A dental bridge fills a gap with replacement teeth supported by neighboring teeth or implants. A fixed bridge stays in place, making it an option to consider if you prefer a restoration you don’t remove at home.
If several teeth are missing, a removable partial denture can replace them while the remaining natural teeth stay in place. A full denture replaces all teeth in the upper or lower arch. Your dentist can explain how these approaches differ in support, cleaning and cost.
Dentures that aren’t meeting your needs
If movement or discomfort is making your current dentures frustrating, an evaluation can help identify the cause and possible next steps. Implant-supported dentures may offer more stability by attaching to implants in the jaw.
These restorations can be removable or fixed. Removable designs come out for daily cleaning; fixed designs stay in place and require professional removal when necessary. Choosing between them involves your dental health, treatment preferences and ability to maintain the restoration.
Get a clearer picture of your restorative options. An appointment is the first step toward a plan built around the problem you actually want to solve.
Local experience relevant to your decision
Our University Boulevard team includes Dr. Kendall Frazier, an Implant Pathway fellow, and Dr. Kevin Snyder, whose practice focuses include complex smile makeovers and full-arch implant-supported teeth. Their backgrounds are relevant when you’re weighing restorative options that involve both the way your teeth work and the way your smile looks.
Our restorative technology includes CEREC for designing and creating ceramic crowns. The office also has 3D cone-beam imaging, which provides detailed views of the jaw and nearby structures for implant planning. These tools support the clinical decisions behind a restoration’s design and placement.
Know what the next steps involve
At your initial visit, tell us what has been difficult and what you want to change. The dentist examines your mouth, evaluates existing teeth and restorations, and uses imaging when needed. From there, we’ll explain the suitable options and recommended next steps in straightforward language.
For a crown, that means understanding the condition of the tooth being restored. For tooth replacement, it means comparing how the options are supported and cared for. If you already wear a denture, its fit and function are part of the assessment. You’ll have a useful basis for choosing your next step.
Make room for the cost conversation
Restorative care is a meaningful investment, and understanding the financial side matters. Review our University financing and insurance information, then work with the team to understand your recommended treatment’s expected costs and available payment options.
Discussing your budget early helps make it part of the planning conversation, alongside your dental needs and priorities.
