Minor cavities can be quickly repaired using tooth-colored fillings, which instead of being made of amalgam like traditional fillings, use a composite resin. This material can be shaded to perfectly match someone’s enamel and bonds directly to the tooth, unlike metal fillings. This means more of the tooth can be preserved during placement, leading to a stronger repair and longer-lasting result.
For teeth that are severely decayed or fractured, rather than simply removing them, Dr. Rojas can bring them back from the brink with dental crowns. These custom-made restorations are fitted over damaged teeth to bring back their strength, appearance, and function at the same time. Our office uses high-quality porcelain and zirconia crowns because they have the most natural appearance while still being extremely durable.
A single missing tooth or even a few absent teeth in a row can be replaced with a dental bridge. New prosthetic teeth are held in place by dental crowns fitted over the remaining teeth on either side of the gap. This not only completes the smile, but it also restores a patient’s ability to chew normally. Plus, bridges prevent the teeth from shifting out of place, which is always a risk after tooth loss.
Patients with several missing teeth can get them back all at once with a specially made denture. Consisting of a gum-colored base that supports beautiful ceramic teeth, Dr. Rojas can design these prosthetics to fit seamlessly no matter a patient’s situation. Partial dentures can complete the smile like the last piece of a puzzle, while full dentures sit directly on the gums to bring back an entire row at once.
Dental implants, unlike other tooth replacements, actually restore an entire tooth from root to crown. This not only makes implants extremely stable, but natural-looking and durable as well. To the casual observer, an implant looks just like a real tooth, and it can be trusted to last for an impressive 30+ years. Dr. Rojas is a dental implant expert and only uses the latest technology to make the process as comfortable and successful as possible.
Most of the time, our patients have the luxury of planning their dental appointments, but often, life doesn’t allow for this. If you or a loved one develop a toothache or knock-out a tooth, you can rely on our practice to provide the immediate relief you deserve. Just give us a call, describe your situation, and we’ll let you know what to do next. If this involves coming to see us, we’ll try to book you for a same-day appointment.

In an ideal world, your teeth should come together and hit evenly all along the jaw – but more often than not, there can be problematic areas that cause the jaw to reflexively shift and slide to prevent damage. Over time, these shifts are likely to result in chronic TMJ pain, headaches, and other frustrations. Thankfully, bite equilibration can reintroduce harmony to your smile! This process involves the minor reshaping of certain teeth so that they can fit together neatly like puzzle pieces, allowing the muscles to finally relax.
