- VeneersIf your dentist is going to place your tooth restoration, Dr. Bohning will collaborate with him/her through written reports that outline their diagnostic findings and any recommended treatment. Common tooth restorations include crowns, veneers and cosmetic bonding, all of which will further strengthen your tooth, improve its appearance and provide a barrier from bacteria.
- CrownsThere are several reasons that a tooth may not heal after initial root canal therapy. For starters, the anatomic structure of the tooth’s canal system can make treatment difficult; narrow or curved canals may go undetected. Next, tooth trauma can cause the root to fracture, which can cause an infection or cyst. Finally, new decay can expose the root canal filling material to bacteria and cause a new infection. This can be the result of a loose, cracked or broken crown or filling.

- Root Canal TreatmentPersistent aching or throbbing tooth pain, sensitivity to hot or cold foods or liquids, pain while chewing or pain in your head, neck or ear could be signs of a serious dental problem. Because of this, you should see your family dentist right away. If, after thorough examination and X-rays, he or she determines that the inside of your tooth is infected or inflamed, chances are you will be referred to Dr. Bryan Bohning at Bohning Endodontics in Metairie or Houma, Louisiana.
