Fillings, crowns & bridges in Westfield

Will a Tooth Filling Halt Decay?

It’s a relatively simple procedure that can restore usefulness and prohibit further deterioration of the tooth. The dentists in our office in Westfield are experts at installing tooth fillings. Call us for more information.

Will Dental Crowns and Tooth Bridges Fix the Appearance of Teeth?

Dental crowns, also called dental caps, can be used when a tooth is too damaged to accept a filling. The crown covers the entire surface of the tooth from the top to the gum line and inhibits further deterioration of the tooth. A tooth bridge replaces a missing tooth. It’s anchored either to adjacent teeth or to a dental implant. If you need a bridge, call our office in Westfield to schedule an appointment.

How Much Does a Filling, Bridge, or Tooth Crown Cost?

Each patient has requested the filling, dental bridge or dental crown for a different reason, as such, each cost estimate will be different. The tooth filling cost, the dental bridge cost and the dental crown cost will all vary depending on the amount of pre-work needed, the type of materials selected, and the severity of the situation. We’ll be happy to provide you with a more accurate quote based on your individual needs. Call us today.

Dental Crown Procedure: What to Know

The process for a dental crown installation will involve two office visits. On the first visit, we’ll get your tooth prepared for the permanent crown installation, take impressions and measurements of your tooth, and install a temporary crown. On your second visit, we’ll remove the temporary and then install your permanent crown. Your vibrant smile will be restored and you’ll be on your way. We will, of course, make sure that your crown is seated properly and adjusted so that it fits comfortably.

Dental Bridge Procedure: What to Know

The process for installing a dental bridge is the same as it is for installation of a dental crown, we’re just installing a different dental appliance. You’ll need to allow at least two office visits, and we’ll ensure that your bridge fits well and is comfortable before you leave our office.
