Having healthy teeth is important
to your overall well-being. Decay and disease can affect your mouth,
your nutrition, and your overall health. In addition, the
state of your smile can greatly influence your self-esteem. Having
a beautiful, healthy smile can bolster your confidence and help
you present yourself as an optimistic, positive person. Your smile
is powerful, so why not make it the best it can be? Dr. Nicolls
performs both general and cosmetic dental procedures -- your smile
will look and feel better than ever!
Crowns are an effective means of restoring cracked, damaged, or
decayed teeth. Our crowns are typically made of porcelain, which
has a natural appearance. Long-lasting and strong, crowns are fitted
over damaged teeth to restore aesthetic beauty and chewing power.
Inlays are fillings placed in the back teeth. They are used to fill
and seal cavities. Inlays fit with precision, providing support
and renewed strength. Porcelain inlays provide the most realistic
appearance. Onlays are used when too much of a tooth is decayed
for regular fillings or inlays. Onlays fit over the entire chewing
surface of the damaged tooth. Like inlays, porcelain onlays look
natural and restore health and strength to back teeth.
Veneers are a conservative but dramatic solution to the problem
of chipped, cracked, discolored, or uneven teeth. Leaving in place
more of the original tooth than crowns, veneers can create the appearance
of a natural, flawless smile. Your teeth will look whiter, straighter,
and more beautiful than ever before!
Composite Fillings are a strong and natural-looking way of filling
cavities. Unlike the old silver or mercury amalgam fillings, composite
fillings are tooth-colored. They also do not require as much of
the original tooth to be removed, making composite fillings safer
and less damaging to the remaining tooth structure. A beautiful,
smart solution, composite fillings may be just what you're looking
for!
Dental Implants are a long-term solution to the problem of missing
teeth. More secure and durable than dentures or bridges, dental
implants consist of a titanium "root" that is implanted
in the gums and an artificial "tooth" (a crown) that fits
over the post. Dental implants can restore chewing power and create
a beautiful smile. Let Dr. Nicolls guide you through the dental
implant process, and get ready to smile!
Laser Dentistry is an exciting new development in the field. Laser
treatment is perfect for people who dislike the sight and sound
of the drill. Lasers are fast, effective, and involve very little
pain. Laser procedures do not typically require anesthesia or numbing.
Dr. Nicolls uses the laser for both hard and soft tissue treatment.
For example, she can use a laser to remove cavities and decay as
well as to treat gum disease. Please contact our office to learn
more about laser dentistry!
Invisalign is the invisible
way to straighten teeth using 3-D computer technology and a series
of nearly undetectable, custom-made, removable Aligners.
