Tooth-Colored Fillings and Bonding
Placed in a single visit
There are many different types of filling materials available today in dentistry. The most common filling material we use in our office is a Composite Resin for front and back teeth. Composite fillings are very esthetic (natural-looking), and they come in a variety of shades to allow Dr. Sutton to customize the shade to each patient.
Composite fillings also provide good durability and resistance to fracture in small-to-mid size restorations that need to withstand moderate chewing pressure. They are bonded or adhesively held in a cavity, often allowing Dr. Sutton to make a more conservative repair to the tooth.
Teeth and Tissue Reshaping
Teeth Reshaping – (Contouring)
- What It Is: A cosmetic procedure where small amounts of enamel are removed to improve tooth shape, length, or surface.
- Used For: Fixing minor imperfections like uneven teeth, small chips, or slight crowding.
- Quick Facts: It’s painless, non-invasive, and usually doesn’t require anesthesia.
Tissue Reshaping – (Gum Contouring)
- What It Is: The reshaping or removal of gum tissue to improve the gum line or expose more of the tooth.
- Used For: Treating a “gummy smile,” uneven gum lines, or preparing the mouth for restorative procedures like crowns.
- Techniques: May involve lasers or traditional surgical tools.
Cosmetic Crowns
We work hard to provide crowns that appear very natural and well-blended with your existing dentition. There are three types of cosmetic crowns we use depending on functional and esthetic demands that will be placed upon them.
- All Porcelain Crowns
- Porcelain Fused to Zirconium Crowns
- Porcelain Fused to High Noble Metal Crowns
Cosmetic Veneers
We offer two types of veneers to our patients:
- Composite veneers (hand-sculpted by Dr. Sutton in a single visit)
- Porcelain veneers ((hand-crafted by a dental lab technician)
Gold Crowns
Gold alloy is still used in dentistry as a very reliable material when tooth size/space limitations are present and esthetics are not the primary concern.
Dr. Sutton and his staff will discuss the various materials available and help you decide.
