Dental Procedures
Dr. Nate Bourassa at Artisan Dental will handle your implant from start to finish. You won't be referred out. Some complex cases will always be better performed by a specialist, but the majority of implants are straight forward. Dental implants are an excellent permanent solution for replacing anywhere from a single tooth to all of your teeth. They simply provide an attachment point and are one of the most successful treatment options available for doing so. Dental implants can hold a crown, bridge, or dentures. They offer more security and comfort than removable options. Schedule a meeting with Dr. Bourassa at Artisan Dental. Find out if you are a good fit for a dental implant.
When the tissue within the tooth is diseased or injured, the tooth tissue dies. If you don't remove it, your tooth can get infected and it will abscess. In some cases this can be very painful. When a tooth is infected there are only two options, perform a root canal on it, or you would need to have it extracted. With Root Canal Therapy, the decaying tissue is removed and the root canal is cleaned and sealed off to protect it. Many dentists do not like to do root canals and often refer the procedure out to an Endodontist. Dr. Nate does most of his own root canals. This saves patients money and time spent in pain waiting for a specialist. In the event that a specialist does need to be involved there is one conveniently located upstairs in the same building. Afterward, a crown is often suggested to cover the tooth. This helps strengthen it and prevent future decay.
Modern dentistry has allowed us the pleasure of combining beauty as well as strength when filling teeth. Artisan Dental in Coeur d'Alene is happy to fix teeth. They use composite resins and ceramics. Their goal is to bring teeth back to their original strength and appearance. As an artist, Dr. Nate has the ability to use composite, to not only restore broken down teeth to their original condition, but he can also use it to shape other teeth without the need for braces.
A bridge is a fixed prosthesis, which means it uses the surrounding teeth to permanently anchor in the replacement tooth/teeth. This provides functionality, strengthens the remaining teeth, and is an esthetically pleasing way of restoring your smile. Dr Nathan Bourassa recommends these for people who do not want to take something in and out of their mouths. Artisan Dental in Coeur d'Alene uses the best labs to produce your prosthesis to ensure a successful long-term result.
Dental crowns are restorations to restore a badly broken down or decayed tooth. This is not just a treatment for dental restoration, it is also an esthetic correction. Crowns seal out future decay and strengthen the whole of the tooth. At Artisan Dental, we can help with your dental needs. Whether you need a porcelain crown for worn front teeth or support for a broken tooth, we are here for you. Many patients do not know about the different types of crown materials. They may also be unaware of the quality differences between labs. At Artisan dental we have the ability to make same day crowns on the very same machines that the labs use. This technology is much better then the cerec crowns and same day crown machines that other dentists use. I can translate what I see in the mouth into the crown design. This helps me ensure the restoration is exactly how I want it. While same-day crowns are useful for bigger and more complex cases, we still prefer using a dental lab that specializes in making crowns. We use the best local lab and stand behind our crowns for five years.
