Dental Crowns

Will You Need a Crown?
West Palm Beach Dental Crowns
Crowns can often be a part of your dental treatment. A tooth can be broken down over time by decay or just general wear. When the tooth is too damaged for a filling, we will place a crown over it in order to save it and, in fact, strengthen it. We use only the highest quality materials, like porcelain, to construct your crown. A crown will often last 20 years or even longer. It will look so natural that you won’t be able to distinguish it from a natural tooth.

White Dental Fillings - Tooth Colored Fillings

No Mercury! No Metals! No Kidding!
White Dental Fillings West Palm Beach
 

For years, the silver-mercury amalgam was the standard filling material used in dental practices, and many practices still use it. While they are a reasonable restoration, amalgams have certain shortcomings. Metal does not bond well to teeth, so decay can and does eventually leak into the tooth. But the biggest reason many of our patients are choosing the porcelain inlays has to do with the way they look. Many people just don’t want an ugly black plug in their teeth. We offer modern restorations that are a natural-looking white, contain no metals, and can actually strengthen your teeth. They also bond very tightly with the healthy part of the tooth so there is much less chance of decay in the future.

Dental Hygiene

What is Wellness Dentistry?
Preventive Dentistry West Palm Beach FL
Let's say you become ill and decide to go to your doctor for care. And let's say that you are treated and you recover. That's just great! But what if you went to your doctor when you were NOT ill and you learned how NOT to get sick? That would be even better! That's what we call "Wellness Care." And that's just what we do in our practice. We can certainly get your teeth and gums healthy and repair any damage just like any dental office can. But we go a step further and show you how to avoid dental problems before they become problems. We start with a very thorough examination. Most of our patients say they've never had such an extensive examination of their gums or teeth. We examine your bite and how your teeth come together. We look for oral cancer, gum disease, signs of wear on the teeth, and, in short, any problem that you might encounter at a later date. We want to head off any problems and make your teeth and gums healthier so you will be spending less time in the dental chair!

A Healthy Smile, A Healthy Body
Dental Health Care West Palm Beach
We know that your oral health is not only about looking your best. It's about maintaining healthy teeth and gums. Did you know that the cause of most tooth loss is not decay? It's gum disease. And recent studies have established a link between gum disease and your overall health. The good news is that gum disease can be treated successfully, often without surgery. We want all of our patients to have outstanding oral health. Our commitment to you includes paying meticulous attention to all of your needs so you look your best and have optimum health.

Dental Root Canal Treatment

Saving Hopeless Teeth
A root canal is one of the most common dental procedures performed, with well over 14 million performed every year. This simple treatment can save your natural teeth and prevent the need for dental implants
or bridges.

At the center of your tooth is pulp, a collection of blood vessels that helps build the surrounding tooth. Infection of the pulp can be caused by trauma to the tooth, deep decay, cracks and chips, or repeated dental procedures. Symptoms of the infection include visible injury or swelling of the tooth, sensitivity to temperature, or pain in the tooth and gums.

If you experience any of these symptoms, Dr. Cohen may recommend non-surgical removal of the injured pulp, followed by thorough cleaning and sealing of the pulp chamber. Dr. Cohen uses local anesthesia to eliminate discomfort. We can also provide nitrous oxide to relax you for the procedure.

After your root canal is done, a crown or other restoration protects your tooth. Contact Dr. Cohen today to determine if root canal therapy is appropriate for your dental health.

TMJ/TMD Bite Alignment Treatment

TMJ/TMD – Proper Bite Alignment Treatment Helps You Say ‘Goodbye’ to Headaches and Jaw Pains!
Did you know that dental occlusion (i.e. your bite) is sometimes the cause of frequent headaches, aching or popping jaws, shoulder pain, and neck pain? If your teeth have been ground down over the years or lost due to accident or dental disease, your jaw is not able to settle into a naturally relaxed position. This causes tension in the muscles in the jaw, and can lead to a variety of pain that you may have already grown accustomed to living with. By restoring your dental occlusion, the jaw can be returned to the position that nature intended. This highly technical procedure, known as a full mouth rehabilitation, is available in our office. If you have been living with the pain and discomfort described above, we invite you to discover the benefits that this procedure may bring to your quality of life.

Periodontal Dentistry West Palm Beach FL

Defeat Gum Disease Painlessly
The main cause for tooth loss is not decay – it's periodontal (gum) disease! Dr. Cohen is pleased to offer his patients a powerful weapon in the fight against gum disease. It's called ARESTIN™. It comes in powder form and contains very tiny microspheres that are not visible to the eye. These microspheres deliver a time-released antibiotic directly to the site of the infection (the spaces between the gums and teeth). ARESTIN kills the bacteria that cause gum disease. The best part is that it's all painless!

Dental Implants West Palm Beach FL 33406

Missing Teeth? Why Not ‘Grow’
New Ones?
Dental implants are the ideal way to replace lost teeth. From the front of the mouth, where they are most visible, to the back, where they provide stability to chew a full variety of foods, implants can help you recapture a beautiful and healthy smile. Unlike bridges or removable dentures, which sit on top of the gums, dental implants are placed under the gums. The “tooth” placed on an implant appears life-like, because it comes through the gums just like the original did – it’s like growing a new tooth! Implants can be used to replace any number of lost teeth. Even people with no teeth can benefit from implants, because they can replace their dentures with teeth that don’t move around when they talk, and they don’t need to be taken out at night.


New Breakthrough Cures Loose, Slipping Dentures
Are you wearing dentures that slip, tilt, or wander, and you would prefer to have the strength and stability of implants? You will be happy to know of a relatively recent breakthrough called overdentures. In this procedure, the denture is anchored with implants, eliminating slippage and trapped food. Our experienced dental team can give you a great fit along with a great look. Increase your confidence and have even more reason to smile – ask us about this today!
