Veneers
A dental veneer is a thin shell of high-grade porcelain that we design in our dental office and then send to a lab for creation. Veneers are stronger than most bonding treatments, create a natural shape and appearance, and resist discoloring. They require at least two visits and because the restoration is precise and permanent, the cost is more. However, with care and caution, this type of restoration may brighten your smile for a decade or longer.
Dental Implants
Dental technology has seen advances in leaps and bounds over the last couple of decades. That’s why Dr. James Lin’s team constantly seeks out education and training with the newest methods and materials. For example, where tooth replacement is concerned, one of the most promising options is a dental implant.
Dental implants also offer other benefits:
Implants look natural and function like real teeth.
Implants support your jawbone and prevent bone tissue from breaking down.
Implants are very durable and can last for many years.
Implants support surrounding teeth, keeping them in proper alignment.
Implants will also help you avoid many oral health problems that can occur when a tooth is not replaced. In addition, implants protect your dental health, restore your smile, and hold up to the wear and tear of daily life.
Dental Crowns
Versatility is another reason Dr. Lin will recommend a dental crown. Five of the most common uses for a crown are:
To reinforce a tooth with too many cavities
To fix more significant surface flaws or damaged enamel
As part of a dental bridge
To protect a tooth that is weakened after root canal therapy
As the top part of a dental implant
Children's Dentistry
We are dedicated to the needs of both parents and children alike. Our commitment to your child is an introduction to dental care in a fun and positive environment where you both feel safe and secure. For parents, we provide clear communication about their child's dental needs, and we support the idea that parents make ultimate care decisions for their children.
Preventative Dental Care
Healthy teeth and gums result from excellent home oral hygiene upkeep and regular dental cleanings and check-ups. Through these preventative approaches, you are empowered to self-care, and we can discover any potential problems as they emerge. When dental issues are in their early stages, solutions are likely less complicated because most dental conditions are progressive, meaning that their nature is to become more severe given time.
Preventative dentistry seeks to interrupt this destructive progress. For example, the bacteria which cause tooth decay are in everyone's mouths, but we can keep that decay under control. At James Lin DMD we do this through exams, cleanings, and other protective treatments for your teeth and periodontal care for your gums.
