Dental implant

Price:

When you receive high-quality affordable dental implants at Precision Dental NYC, you can count on having stronger teeth than you had originally. And your new teeth may very well even enhance your appearance. Good cheap dental implants are available through your family dentist in Astoria, NY through a variety of affordable dental implants, too. With the right kind of teeth implants, you’ll speak, smile and chew as well as you did before. And your bones become stronger as a result.

Low-cost dental implants are popular, as nearly three million people in the U.S, enjoy the benefits of the latest dental implant materials and techniques. “Today, implants with attached crowns are the preferred method for treating tooth loss because they function the same as natural teeth and help preserve the jaw structure by preventing atrophy from bone loss.

Bridgework and dentures address the cosmetic problem of missing teeth but do not prevent bone loss. Permanent implants maintain proper chewing function and exert appropriate, natural forces on the jaw bone to keep it functional and healthy,” reports the American Academy of Implant Dentistry.

According to AAID statistics, dental implant cost doesn’t deter the popularity either, as about 500,000 Americans get new implants yearly. Seek out your cosmetic dentist to learn your eligibility for getting the best dental implants.

Porcelain Dental Crowns

Price:

A dental crown is ideal for covering a tooth that’s badly stained, slightly crooked or been broken in an accident. Crowns are also called tooth caps or dental caps because they sit on top of an existing structure. Because it can save a tooth, a dental cap helps prevent bone loss that often happens if you go too long with missing teeth. And your self-confidence remains intact when you don’t have big gaps in your smile.

What Are Dental Caps Made Of?

You have choices when it comes to what type of dental crown you get. Your dentist knows your dental history as well as your lifestyle preferences and budget restraints, so he can make the best recommendation.

Choices for teeth crowns include:

Metal alloys are best used to make back teeth and molars. They aren’t as apparent when you smile. Metals are stronger and can withstand the chewing pressures on your back teeth. The most common metal alloys used to make dental caps for back teeth are platinum, nickel-chromium and gold.

Composite resin is your most affordable option. It can be made to match your tooth color, so it makes a good choice for front teeth. Resin crowns are weaker, however, and can fracture and wear down over time.

Zirconia or porcelain provides you with the best natural-looking teeth caps. While porcelain crowns may be more expensive, when you consider how long they last and that they don’t wear down or crack under pressure, they make a worthwhile investment.

Crown Lengthening

Price:

Crown lengthening in Astoria is typically performed to improve the health of the gum tissue or prepare your mouth for certain restorative procedures – for example, if not enough of the tooth sticks out above the gum line to support a filling or crown. You may also consider crown lengthening if your smile can be described as “gummy,” where the teeth are covered with excess gum tissue.

Crown lengthening is a common surgical procedure performed by Dr. Bokser who will extend the height or size of the portion of the tooth that is visible above the gum line. The doctor will typically use local anesthesia and then gradually reshape or remove the excess gum and bone tissue to expose more of the natural tooth.

Once Dr. Bokser feels enough tooth has been exposed, the doctor will wash the area with sterile salt water and apply stitches to the gums. The entire procedure can usually be completed in less than one hour.

In most cases, after the surgery, you’ll experience a little swelling, which can be treated with ice and Ibuprofen (or other pain medicine) but generally there is relatively minimal healing time with little discomfort. The area will be completely healed and back to normal within 2-3 months. You will, however, notice the results immediately in a wider, more symmetrical smile.

Dr. Bokser can perform crown lengthening on a single tooth, for a more even gum line, or to several teeth to reveal a broader smile or prepare you for further dental work.

Porcelain Veneers

Price:

Veneers teeth are designed from thin slices of a material that gives your teeth the color you’re looking to achieve. They have the ability to turn unattractive, yellowing teeth into a whiter, natural hue to complete your smile makeover in our dental office.

Dental veneers are applied onto the surface of your teeth with long-lasting cement. The ultraviolet light then hardens the cement. It’s an easy and painless procedure when performed by our top-rated dentist.

Getting veneers teeth requires a simple office visit. According to the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, about 89 percent of those seeking any kind of dental work do so to improve their appearance, while only 54 percent visit a dentist to improve their dental health. Like you, however, many see a dentist to get the best of both.

Teeth Whitening

Price:

Many people believe that teeth whitening is a need and not a luxury. According to the Consumer Guide to Dentistry, it’s the most-requested dental procedure in the U.S. 80 percent of Americans claim that the best teeth whitening cost is nothing compared to the boost in confidence they receive from the process.

Success is often equated with laser teeth whitening because when your self-image is improved, you tend to seek out better opportunities, take risks to build new relationships, and end up taking better care of yourself overall. You may find that people, in general, appreciate a healthy-looking smile, just as they often tend to be less friendly and accommodating when you don’t smile due to embarrassment or low self-esteem.

If you believe that laser whitening helps your relationships and business ventures, then it very well may. If you think that a winning laser whitening smile is what you need to be your best self, then please call your cosmetic dentistry team for an appointment at Precision Dental NYC.
