When treating a cavity, we will remove the decayed portion of your tooth and fill it with another substance. Many times, this can be done with a composite filling the same color as your tooth. If your cavity is too large for a filling, your tooth is cracked or you are missing a tooth, we also offer crowns and bridges. Please consult Dr. Teri Hernandez, DDS to see which option is right for you.

You may run into oral problems where a filling, crown or bridge is not enough to solve the issue. Our team provides other services including root canals, gum surgery and possible extractions. We are able to help decide which action would be best for you. Call our office to learn the best way to restore damaged or decayed teeth today.
