Cavities can appear at any moment of life. At Palms Dentistry, we are prepared to help you fight back! Our skilled dentistsLearn more about our dentist offer metal-free fillings to protect your teeth and stop cavities in their tracks.
When you experience a cavity, your tooth’s structure and integrity may be at risk. As a solution, we’ll place a metal-free composite filling to the affected area. This natural-looking restoration prevents the cavity from becoming more significant and causing more damage.
Unlike silver fillings, composite fillings bond to the surface of your tooth (for greater strength) and match the color of your natural teeth (for greater beauty).
With a more natural look and healthy teeth, you and your family can continue to smile with confidence.
Our philosophy is “judgment-free dentistry in a relaxing environment.” Therefore, we are extremely sensitive to our patients’ needs and comfort. With this in mind, we are here to help you and your family remain calm and relaxed throughout any procedure.

Crowns
A dental crown is needed when a tooth is severely decayed or cracked due to trauma or decay. Crowns are used to restore your tooth’s function, stability, and beauty.
Acting like a tooth cap, this restoration protects your tooth from bacteria, blends in with your smile, and provides extra strength to a damaged tooth. Our crowns are custom-made to fit over the affected tooth and seal it off from bacteria or further damage.
Our office may be able to create a beautiful crown for you in just one visit with CEREC® same-day technologyOpens a new window to the official website. Please ask your dentist for more information.
Bridges
If you are missing a tooth, a dental bridge could be the ideal solution for you. A dental bridge consists of an artificial tooth placed attached to two crowns. The crowns are carefully placed over the natural, healthy teeth on either side of the vacated gap. The artificial tooth then fills in the gap to create a fuller, more beautiful, and more functional smile.
An extraction may be needed to keep your smile free from oral disease or to prepare your mouth for future dental procedures. Our dentistsLearn more about our family dentists only recommend removing a tooth when absolutely necessary.
No matter the reason for your extraction, you can be sure we are here to help and not to judge. With our team’s gentle touch and professional skills, your experience will be comfortable and pain-free. Plus, we can provide you with restorative options too!

Our experience and skills can make a difference in your treatment and provide pain relief.
