read moreWisdom teeth, or third molars, are the last teeth to erupt in your mouth and are the teeth least needed for good oral health. Most people have four wisdom teeth that usually erupt through the gums in their late teens or early twenties. Sometimes wisdom teeth remain trapped in the jawbone under the gums because there is insufficient room for them to erupt. Wisdom teeth can cause gum disease, crowding or other damage to adjacent teeth, decay (due to the inability of your toothbrush to keep the area clean), and bone destroying cysts.

Plus the foundation of your real teeth had to be destroyed to make room for your restoration. Sure, they looked good but the price for that smile was too great many times. Popular Cosmetic Dentist Dr. Amit Bhakta followed a different path. For the past 11 years, he has pursued aesthetic dentistry, using minimally invasive techniques to create stunning, crafted smiles that far outlive traditional methods.

read moreDental inlays and onlays are some of the strongest and most lifelike dental restorations available. After your mouth has been anesthetized we prepare the tooth in much the same way we would for a standard filling. When the tooth has been prepared to our satisfaction, an impression is made and sent to a dental lab. You will usually be required to wear a temporary filling until the restoration is fabricated. With proper care, your inlay or onlay will increase your overall health and instill confidence for years to come.

To make a crown, dentists must grind away the majority of your tooth structure, going below the gum line, most of the time cutting unnecessarily beneath the enamel into more fragile dentin and much closer to the nerve than needed. With minimally invasive dentistry, Dr. Bhakta ensures the same excellent work of removing decay occurs while taking away as little of the tooth as possible.
