General Dentistry-Auburn CA

Some of the most common treatments you'll find at Dr. Isbell's office are as follows...

Fillings & Crowns

Dr. Isbell’s fillings and crowns are made from strong, bio-compatible materials. They are bonded to the tooth ensuring a perfect fit. It is important to Dr. Isbell to offer only the best in dental materials available today. All filling materials used are BPA and metal free. Dr. Isbell may recommend a crown if you have any of the following:

  • deeply cracked, worn or fractured tooth

  • a tooth with a large cavity

  • in conjunction with a root canal treatment

  • a tooth that is abnormally small, strangely shaped or very discolored

Crowns are also used with other restorative dentistry treatments, such as anchoring a bridge in place on either side of a missing tooth or to put the finishing touch on a dental implant. These procedures sometimes require more than one visit, depending on treatment involved.

Dentures

With dentures, a patient can regain function and a natural looking smile. Our dentures are custom to you from tooth shade, to shape. Advanced materials are used so that they are as thin as possible and extremely comfortable. 

Dentures can be fitted to implants.  Implant-supported dentures represent the latest development in denture technology. This approach has several benefits compared to traditional dentures:

  • The implants hold dentures firmly in place

  • Dentures don’t slip during biting, chewing or speaking

  • Implants provide more stability for lower dentures than traditional prosthetics

Implant crowns

Dental implants are placed by a surgeon and can be restored with crowns by Dr. Isbell. Dental implants provide a natural-looking appearance and long-lasting function. If you have lost one or more teeth to fractures, gum disease or tooth decay, this procedure could give you back your chewing function and smile.
