Learn how dental implants, dentures, and other restorative dentistry procedures available at our San Diego office in the Clairemont area can help improve your quality of life and self confidence.
Dental Implant Restoration
Thousands of Americans are missing teeth, posing health, functional, and aesthetic problems for patients. Dental implants can be used at our San Diego office in the Clairemont area to replace one or more missing teeth, providing beautifully natural results. Dr. Nguyen performs dental implant restorations for patients who choose this treatment option.
The dental implants procedure involves the insertion of anchors into the gums. Dr. Nguyen can refer patients to a qualified dentist skilled in the placement of anchors for this portion of the procedure. Because anchors need time to integrate into the gums, the dental implants will be placed about six months after the anchors are placed. Dr. Nguyen is skilled in the placement of dental implants, providing patients with a stable bite, improved appearance, and an increased level of comfort. To find out if you are a good candidate for dental implants at our restorative dentistry practice, contact us in the San Diego area of Clairemont to schedule your consultation with New Smile Dental.
Dentures
For patients who are not good candidates for dental implants or do not want to undergo the implant procedure, dentures may be the right solution. Many patients at our San Diego office in Clairemont choose dentures to replace their missing teeth. Advances in dentures provide vast improvements over the dentures of the past, including a more stable bite and more natural looking results. Schedule a consultation about dentures at our restorative dentistry practice in San Diego to find out how a new set of dentures can improve the appearance and function of your smile.
Root Canals
Patients who have extensive decay to teeth may need to undergo a root canal to restore the tooth's health and prevent further damage or tooth loss. After a thorough exam, Dr. Nguyen can determine the condition of the affected tooth and recommend the appropriate course of treatment based on the diagnosis. A root canal generally needs to be performed when the pulp, the inside of the tooth, is infected. Root canals clean out the inner affected areas of the tooth, and in some cases, severely damaged areas will be removed.
