All-Ceramic Restorations

Many dental crowns and restorative teeth options can be made from silver or gold. Traditionally, back in the day, this is how most fillings were made. Fillings and restorations made of these materials can be distracting and can take away from the natural look of your teeth. They are also not as good for you or the environment. Because of this, we are committed to using all-ceramic restorations whenever possible.

The ceramic materials that we use are more than just cosmetically pleasing. They also offer better comfort and biocompatibility than other materials. For you, that means that they not only look like your natural teeth, they feel like them too.

Ceramic restorations are also resistant to wear and tear. They are more resistant than other, previously used materials and can withstand the pressure of chewing and biting. They are also precisely customized to your mouth. Compared to previous restorations, the materials used to make ceramic restorations are more environmentally friendly.

At our practice, we are committed to not only keeping your smile as healthy as possible but also keeping it bright and beautiful. We want you to be proud of your teeth and ready to show them off- not embarrassed because of distracting gold, silver, and metal restorations. You can trust that we will use nothing but the highest quality materials to give you the best possible restorations.

Dr. Van Huffel's knowledge and skill is excellent and her integrity is above reproach. Her staff is friendly, efficient and professional. She is one of the reasons I chose Columbus for my retirement home.
