At Phan Family Dentistry, there are several services that are provided to patients in and around the Alexandria, VA area. Being a general family and cosmetic dentist, Dr. Phan can assist with you and your family's dental needs!
6. Crowns
As we age, our teeth
weaken and become more
susceptible to decay, cracks,
and discoloration. Dental
crowns are a method to
restore beautiful smiles.
7. Dental Bridges
Commonly used as a method
to replace missing teeth,
bridges use existing teeth to
create a bridge that crosses
over the area of the missing
tooth.
8. Dentures and
Partials
A classic option to replace
missing teeth, dentures and
partials make for a convenient
alternative.
Types of Dentures:
โ Conventional
โ Immediate
9. Conventional Full Dentures
For this method, all of your teeth are fully removed and
dentures have time to heal before they are placed in the
mouth.
This usually requires a few months to give the gums time
to adequately heal.
10. Immediate Full Dentures
Immediate dentures call for your dentist to take
measurements of your mouth prior to removing your
teeth. The main benefit to these dentures, is you donโt
have to go any amount of time without teeth!
Follow up visits are usually required as the dentures will
need to be refitted as your jawbone will have changed
slightly due to healing.
11. Partial Dentures
These dentures are an option you can consider when only
some of your teeth need to be removed. These can be
comparable to dental bridges, but it is not a permanent
appliance.
12. Dental Implants
Dental implants happen
during the course of just a
few months. It involves
placing a screw into the jaw
bone. The dentist will then
make an incision in your
gum so he or she can place
the implant.
13. Extractions
When we see โtooth
extractionsโ we usually
think wisdom teeth!
When a wisdom tooth needs
to be extracted, itโs usually
because theyโre impacting
and protruding existing
teeth.
Impacted teeth (if wisdom
teeth are not removed) can
cause severe problems
down the line such as
infection.
14. Emergency
Dentist
For anything dental emergency related, Phan
Family Dentistry offers emergency dentistry!
Itโs always important not to wait out what
could turn into a much more problematic
situation.
15. Teeth Cleaning
Never fail to receive
your bi-annual teeth
cleanings! Making sure
you keep up your dental
cleanings every 6
months ensures that
youโre on a path of good
oral hygiene and dental
health.
