Restorative

• Fillings
• Resin Composite
  Zirconia and e.max ceramics are significantly stronger than regular porcelain, porcelain fused to metal, or composite resin, which are all widely used in dentistry. This means that zirconia or e.max restorations are able to withstand the force of your bite with a much lesser risk of chipping or cracking. They are also less likely to warp when exposed to especially hot or cold temperatures. These restorations offer excellent function in addition to beauty.
• Veneers
  Learn why so many patients trust the Center for Esthetic Dentistry in New Haven, CT, for their porcelain veneers.
• Crowns
  A dental crown is a protective cap that is placed onto a tooth. The cap prevents further harm to a tooth while restoring its strength, function, and appearance.
• Bridges
  Dental Bridges Missing teeth can cause feelings of embarrassment and impact your ability to eat and speak properly. A dental bridge can restore the function and appearance of your smile by replacing up to three consecutive missing teeth.
• Dental Bonding
  Dental bonding allows dentists to paint over imperfections in one quick, pain-free visit. Using a strong dental resin that is color-matched to your natural teeth, Dr. Lerch can conceal stains, minor chips, and cracks. The final results are quite effective and difficult to detect. During the procedure, a little bit of the tooth structure is slightly scuffed. This rough surface helps the dental resin stay in place. Once the tooth-colored resin has been applied and hardened with a curing light, Dr. Lerch polishes the bonding material so it blends in seamlessly with the natural tooth structure.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

• Oral Surgery
  In addition to being in good dental health, patients should be healthy enough to undergo oral surgery. We can review your medical history and any wellness issues during the consultation process.
• Tooth Extractions
  One tooth or multiple teeth may need to be removed before getting implants. Tooth extraction prevents oral health issues during treatment and gives the dental implants sufficient room when necessary.
• Bone Grafting
  A missing tooth often leads to bone loss due to the lack of root structure. If this affects jawbone density, a bone graft may be needed to restore bone structure. A sinus lift can also be performed; this bone grafting procedure is performed when a patient needs upper implants to replace premolars and molars.

Orthodontics

• Orthodontics
  While most people undergo orthodontics to fix cosmetic concerns, treatment can also improve your oral health. When your teeth are evenly spaced, you can brush and floss more thoroughly and prevent tooth decay. Furthermore, clear aligners will properly align your bite, helping you avoid serious and painful jaw conditions.
