What is “Complete Health Dentistry" -Smile Craft Dental


Here at Smile Craft Dental Care, we pride ourselves on offering complete health dentistry. In fact, complete health dentistry is so important to us that we made it our tag line, but what does “complete health dentistry”mean exactly?

The mouth is the gateway to the body. One aspect of complete health dentistry is educating our patients on this systemic link between the mouth and the body. We want our patients to understand that Periodontal Disease raises their risk of contracting other inflammatory diseases like Cardiovascular Disease or Diabetes. We don’t just clean your teeth and fill your cavities; we help you to achieve complete health and wellness in every aspect of your dental care. We do this in a number of ways.

Active Listening

First of all, we really listen to your needs and concerns. We don’t only tell you our professional opinions. We get to know you and your lifestyle so we can better assist you as an individual with very specific needs.

Offering Traditional Dental Procedures

Here at Smile Dental Care, we offer routine cleanings and exams, fillings, root canals and crowns. We also do braces, extractions, teeth whitening and veneers. No matter what you need for a great smile–we can help!

Educating

We also help educate each of our patients about proper dental care. We know that you want to take good care of your teeth and of your health, but you may not know how. We give you the knowledge, tips and tricks you need for complete oral health.

Advanced Testing

Lastly, we provide services which go well beyond the range of most traditional dental offices. This “whole health” approach helps us catch and solve problems quickly.

Crowns are made from various types of materials...

Depending on which tooth needs a crown, your dentist will suggest a material, or combination of materials, that is right for you.

Metal crowns are made of gold. They generally last a long time and won’t chip or break. They tend not to wear down your opposing natural teeth. However, the gold colour does not look natural, particularly on front teeth.

Composite crowns look natural. They won’t chip as easily as porcelain crowns, but they tend to wear more quickly from chewing. Tooth brushing tends to remove the highly polished surface of composite crowns and this causes them to stain more easily.

Porcelain crowns look the most natural. They are more brittle than metal or composite and may chip more easily. Because of this, they are not usually placed on back teeth.

Porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns look natural and are stronger than porcelain or composite crowns. They won’t chip as easily as porcelain or ceramic crowns. However, depending on their design, the metal may show if your gums are thin or shrink.
