Esthetic tooth-colored fillings

When a cavity needs to be filled, tooth-colored fillings blend in perfectly with the surrounding teeth. Fillings are matched to the color of your natural teeth to create a flawless smile, as if you never had a filling at all! In some circumstances, tooth-colored composite material can be utilized to repair a fractured front tooth or make minor cosmetic alterations.

Crowns

A crown may be recommended for several reasons:

• when a large portion of natural tooth structure is missing or has been replaced by filling material
• following root canal therapy
• cracked tooth
• esthetics

A crown helps to provide strength and hold the tooth together when it has been weakened. It can restore function and improve appearance. Crowns can be made of several materials, such as gold or ceramic. In some cases, we can create and deliver your crown the same day! Other times, we may need to take an impression and give you a temporary crown for a time while your permanent crown is made. Our team can assist you in deciding which option is best for you.

Veneers

Veneers are a highly esthetic, thin covering of porcelain that is permanently cemented on the front of your teeth. Veneers can help with issues such gaps between teeth, slightly rotated teeth, undersized or malformed teeth, and discoloured teeth. 

Professional Dental Bleaching

Let us help you get your teeth their whitest! At Downtown Dental we offer tooth whitening services in our convenient downtown Charlottesville office. Professional, prescription strength dental bleaching is stronger, faster, and lasts longer than over the counter teeth whitening options. You will receive custom bleaching trays that are specially fitted to your mouth and work to keep the bleach directly on your teeth, so it can work where it is supposed to.
