Most dentistry looks like dentistry which is too bad. Our goal at Medford Dental Clinic is to provide dentistry that is undetectable by your friends and family – at a price you can afford. We install crowns and fillings with restorations that look and feel like your natural teeth. And we often replace existing crowns and fillings because they look – you know – like crowns and fillings with better fitting, invisible alternatives.
Where damage to a person’s teeth is beyond repair, we can use porcelain or porcelain “pasted on gold” crowns to make your smile appear “like new”. This is an extremely reliable technique for repairing the most severe of dental problems, even permanently replacing missing teeth to provide you a complete smile and a proper bite. We are renowned for the quality of our work and the fantastic changes we make for people using this technology. These treatments are used for a long-lasting correction of major dental problems. It is usual for these treatments to last for 20 to 30 years, which is as close to permanent as dental treatment gets.

Dental implants are designed to provide a foundation for replacement teeth that look, feel and function like natural teeth. The person who has lost teeth regains the ability to eat virtually anything and can smile with confidence, knowing that their teeth appear natural and that facial contours will be preserved. These implants are tiny titanium posts which are placed into the jawbone where teeth are missing. The bone bonds with the titanium, creating a strong foundation for new artificial teeth. In addition, dental implants can help preserve facial structure, preventing the bone deterioration which occurs when teeth are missing.
Dental sealants are a simple procedure in which a tooth-colored acrylic “coating” is painted onto the surface of your chewing tooth. This effectively “seals” the deep grooves, acting as a barrier and protecting enamel from plaque and acids. Sealants are your single best choice to prevent decay on the biting surfaces of your chewing teeth. Children and adults can both benefit from sealants in the fight against tooth decay.
