Dr. Jeffrey Johnson will also look at each tooth to catch problems like tooth decay or cracks, as well as old dental work. Sometimes, old dental work wears out and needs to be replaced. We will be happy to replace your old metal fillings, inlays, onlays, and dental crowns with tooth-colored alternatives, so contact us today.

Why Should I Visit the Dentist Every Six Months?
By looking for trouble every six months, we can often reduce your potential for large dental problems. For instance, left untreated, a small cavity can grow to destroy an entire tooth and spread to surrounding teeth. A cracked tooth can cause pain or break off and create additional problems. Furthermore, advanced gum disease is the primary cause of tooth loss for American adults, and oral cancer causes more than 7,500 deaths each year. Caught and treated early, these diseases can be easily controlled with only conservative procedures.
