Removable Dentures
At Paulus Dental & Paulus Orthodontics, we offer a variety of removable denture solutions to restore your smile and improve your oral health. Removable dentures are a cost-effective way to replace missing teeth and can be removed and cleaned daily.
- Immediate Dentures: Immediate dentures are placed immediately after tooth extraction. They provide a temporary solution while your gums heal, preventing changes in your facial structure and maintaining your appearance.
- Partial Dentures: Partial dentures are designed to replace multiple missing teeth. They are held in place by clasps that attach to your natural teeth. Partial dentures can help to prevent your remaining teeth from shifting and maintain your facial structure.
- Complete Dentures: Complete dentures are used to replace all of the teeth in your upper or lower jaw. They are held in place by suction and can be removed for cleaning.
- Flippers: Flippers are temporary removable dentures that are often used to replace a single missing tooth or a few missing teeth. They are a simple and affordable solution for replacing missing teeth while you wait for a more permanent solution.
Our experienced dentists will work with you to determine the best type of removable denture for your individual needs. We'll also provide you with personalized care and support throughout the entire process.
Dental Implants
Dental implants offer strong, permanent replacement teeth! Whether you've lost a single tooth or an entire set, dental implants replace any number of lost or damaged teeth with strong implant posts that are topped with custom-shaded dental crowns, providing a natural-looking, comfortable finish. Dental implants are permanent, function just like natural teeth, and allow you to continue enjoying your favorite foods without worry about slippage or daily removal. At your implant consultation, Dr. Paulus will assess your smile and form a custom tooth replacement plan that fits you best!
All-on-4 Dental Implants
We offer All-on-4 implants as a fast, effective solution for replacing all teeth on the upper or lower arch. The All-on-4 system works through four implants placed on the upper or lower arch, which are then attached to custom-fitted dentures. This implant system is custom-crafted, ultra-strong, and promotes healthy integration with the jawbone, for long-lasting smiles. As an added benefit, patients who opt for All-on-4 implants often receive usable new teeth on the very same day as their implant appointment!
Snap-On Smile®
Paulus Dental & Paulus Orthodontics is a provider of Snap-On Smile®! Snap-On Smile offers an easy, non-invasive, fast smile transformation, using a dental appliance that looks just like natural teeth. The appliance fits over existing teeth to offer a temporary or permanent restorative solution. Snap-On-Smile can offer a full or partial arch of new teeth, snapping in place to restore your ability to eat, drink, speak and laugh with ease. Snap-On Smile® is only prescribed and delivered by a licensed dentist; if you're looking for the convenience of Snap-On Smile in Fort Worth, look no further than Paulus Dental & Paulus Orthodontics!
Dental Crowns
We offer a variety of dental crown options to restore the function and appearance of damaged or decayed teeth. Dental crowns are tooth-shaped caps that are placed over damaged teeth to protect them and improve their appearance.
We offer lab-fabricated crowns that are crafted in a dental laboratory, and offer a wide range of materials and customization options to achieve the perfect fit and appearance. Placement of lab-fabricated dental crowns typically require multiple visits to our Fort Worth dental office.
We offer a variety of materials for dental crowns, including:
- All-Porcelain Crowns: These crowns are highly aesthetic and blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. They are ideal for patients who have metal allergies or desire a natural-looking restoration.
- All-Ceramic Crowns: Similar to all-porcelain crowns, all-ceramic crowns are highly aesthetic and biocompatible. They are also strong and durable.
- BruxZir Crowns: BruxZir crowns are made from zirconium oxide, a highly durable material that can withstand the forces of biting and chewing. They are ideal for our patients who grind their teeth or have high bite forces.
- Zirconia Crowns: Zirconia crowns are another strong and durable option. They are highly resistant to chipping and cracking and offer a natural-looking appearance.
At Paulus Dental & Paulus Orthodontics, we will work with you to determine the best type of dental crown for your individual needs. We'll consider factors such as the location of the tooth, the extent of the damage, and your aesthetic preferences.
Dental Bridges
A dental bridge is a fixed prosthetic device designed to replace one or more missing teeth. At Paulus Dental & Paulus Orthodontics, we offer various bridge options to restore your smile's function, appearance, and overall oral health. The types of bridges we offer include:
- Traditional dental bridges: These bridges consist of two or more crowns attached to a pontic, which replaces the missing tooth. Traditional bridges are a reliable and effective solution for replacing missing teeth.
- Maryland Bridges: A less invasive option, Maryland bridges use a metal framework bonded to the back of adjacent teeth to support a pontic. They are suitable for patients with healthy, strong teeth.
- Cantilever Bridges: Used to replace missing teeth when only one adjacent tooth is available, cantilever bridges attach a pontic to a single crown on the adjacent tooth. While less common, they can be a viable option in certain cases.
- Implant-Supported Bridges: A more permanent and durable solution, implant-supported bridges use dental implants to anchor the bridge to the jawbone. This provides superior stability and function compared to traditional bridges.
