General Dentist 07024
Are you suffering from a mild ache in our mouth that continues to act up grow more painful when you enjoy your favorite cup of sweetened tea or desert after a long day at work? Aches in your smile that grow worse when introduced to sugary substances are more than just a mild annoyance, but are in fact a sign of a cavity beginning form inside your mouth. Cavities are a common and simple problem for many of us, but without treatment these small pits in the surface of our teeth can grow to cause painful infections, and even an abscessed tooth in severe cases. Any tooth ache that lasts for over a week should be examined and treated by your local Fort Lee general dentist. Our welcoming and knowledgeable offices of Alvin Jacobs, DDS employ the latest advances in dental fillings in order to give you a smile that is as healthy as it is beautiful.
Dental fillings are made today from a vast array of materials, and though certain types of fillings may seem out of date, each material has its own use and purpose in treating cavities in all areas of your smile. Many of us will be diagnosed with a cavity in a rear-facing molar, known by most of us simply as the large teeth that grow in the very back of our smiles. These teeth are not only the most difficult to reach for proper brushing, but they are also responsible for much of the chewing our jaws accomplish in order to achieve healthy eating habits. These teeth are the most common for cavities for this reason, and also need to be treated with the strongest variety of dental fillings. Your trusted Fort Lee general dentist will often recommend metal fillings such as gold or amalgam for this task. These teeth are only ever seen by your doctor with a special mirror, so no one will know they are there but you. Teeth in the front of your smile do minimal chewing, and as such can be treated through porcelain and composite resin fillings that will work to not only treat your cavities, but can also give you a brighter and more beautiful smile.
Our fully licensed and professionally trained staff at your neighborhood Fort Lee general dentist utilizes the complete range of dental fillings, with metal fillings in gold, porcelain, composite, and even state of the art ceramic fillings to treat cavities no matter where they occur in your smile. At the state of the art practice of Alvin Jacobs, DDS our doctors work one on one with you to meet your personal needs, as well as your oral health problems. With dental fillings from the offices of Alvin Jacobs, DDS your smile can be restored to a picture of perfect health.
