Treatments—Explained Simply

• Full-arch fixed bridges, also called the All-on-X concept: Replace every tooth in a jaw with a bridge anchored to 4–8 implants.
• Single dental implants: A titanium “root” placed in the bone. An abutment connects the implant to your new crown.
• Overdentures: Removable dentures that snap onto 2–4 implants for much better stability.
• Crowns and veneers: Zirconia, which is a very strong ceramic; E-max or full-ceramic for lifelike color; and PFM, which means porcelain fused to metal.
• Root canal therapy: Treatment that cleans and seals the inside of a tooth so it can be saved. It is usually finished with a crown.
• Orthodontics: Invisalign® Full, Lite and i7, along with other braces for alignment and bite correction.
• Whitening and hygiene: Chairside whitening, regular cleanings and deep cleanings by quadrant.
