Expert Cosmetic Dentistry in Amesbury – CEREC® Restorations, Dental Implants, Veneers, Whitening & More
Dental implants are artificial roots and teeth (usually titanium) that are surgically placed into the upper or lower jawbone by a dentist or Periodontist – a specialist of the gums and supporting bone. The teeth attached to implants are very natural looking and often enhance or restore a patient’s smile!
Chairside Economical Restorations of Esthetic Ceramic (CEREC®) has revolutionized dental procedures. If crowns, onlays, inlays or dental veneers were required to restore damaged teeth, two visits and three weeks of waiting time in-between would be inevitable. CEREC® creates these ceramic restorations in the dental office.
An inlay restoration is a custom-made filling made of composite material, gold, or tooth-colored porcelain. Porcelain inlays are popular because they resemble your natural tooth. A porcelain inlay is made by a professional dental laboratory and is permanently cemented into the tooth by your dentist.
An onlay restoration is a custom-made filling made of composite material, gold, or tooth-colored porcelain. Porcelain onlays are popular because they resemble your natural tooth. An onlay is sometimes also referred to as a partial crown. Porcelain onlays are made by a professional dental laboratory and is permanently cemented onto the tooth by your dentist.
A composite (tooth colored) filling is used to repair a tooth that is affected by decay, cracks, fractures, etc. The decayed or affected portion of the tooth will be removed and then filled with a composite filling.Composite fillings are usually placed in one appointment. While the tooth is numb, your dentist will remove decay as necessary.
A crown (or cap) is a covering that encases the entire tooth surface restoring it to its original shape and size. A crown protects and strengthens tooth structure that cannot be restored with fillings or other types of restorations. Although there are several types of crowns, porcelain (tooth colored crown) is the most popular, because they resemble your natural teeth.
A dental bridge is a fixed (non-removable) appliance and is an excellent way to replace missing teeth. Dental bridges are highly durable and will last many years, however, they may need replacement or need to be re-cemented due to normal wear.
Veneers are very thin pieces of durable, tooth shaped porcelain that are custom made (for shape and color) by a professional dental laboratory. They are bonded onto the front of teeth to create a beautiful and attractive smile.
Tooth whitening (or bleaching) is a simple, non-invasive dental treatment used to change the color of natural tooth enamel and is an ideal way to enhance the beauty of your smile. Tooth whitening is not permanent. A touch-up may be needed every several years, and more often if you smoke, drink coffee, tea, or wine.
"Fabulous!! My teeth needed work and I met with several dentists to discuss cosmetic work. I made an appointment with Dr George and I found him to be an excellent dentist and, after seeing pictures of his cosmetic work, I selected him to do my cosmetic work. Dr George is not only an excellent dentist but a real artist and wonderfully enthusiastic about his work. My teeth are now beautiful! Thank you, Dr George."
“They are always on time. Incredibly accommodating. Exceptionally competent staff. Really nice people work here and they know how to treat others. I have absolute confidence in Dr. Fulkerson, Lisa, and Lori. I wouldn’t consider any other practice.”
“Dr. Brad Fulkerson at Amesbury dental is AWESOME! I recently had a wisdom tooth pulled and an implant put in. After consulting with 5 different oral surgeons (yes, 5!), I finally felt comfortable with Amesbury Dental associates. Everything is healing extremely well, and I feel very well cared for by Dr. Fulkerson and the staff at Amesbury Dental, I highly recommend them!”
