Dental Implants a Superior Alternative
July 28, 2014
Tooth loss can make a distinct difference in your smile. Patients have many options for replacement including bridges, but Dental Implants provide the most natural alternative.
Dental implants can be the solution to all such problems as they
- Replace one or more teeth.
- Remain fixed in the specific site of placement.
- Do not drop down or click like dentures.
- Are extremely natural looking.
- Function just like natural teeth.
- Have a success rate of 95%.
- Have no detrimental effects on adjacent healthy teeth.
Dental implants are unique in the way they fuse with the jawbone, as they are able to derive complete support from the jawbone instead of deriving support from the neighboring teeth. They last longer than other tooth replacement options. In addition, they keep the bone strong, saving you from sunken cheeks due to tooth loss and bone loss.

Custom Dentures: What You Should Know
July 14, 2014
What are Custom Dentures?
Custom dentures are specifically made according to your needs. When a denture is made for you, you are able to get a denture with a perfect fit, increased functionality, and a natural smile. Color, shape, or size of the teeth can be adjusted in order to achieve the most natural look.
Benefits of custom dentures-
- Comfort and functional efficiency – Custom dentures are much more comfortable and efficient than standard dentures, in part due to the special materials used in fabrication. The material is pliable and can be adjusted within the mouth until the patient is satisfied with the performance of the denture. The dentures have a soft lining material for more comfort in biting and chewing. Custom dentures on a lower arch have great retentive capacity due to the strong grip on the arch.
The shape of the teeth is specifically customized for the patient’s bite, increasing functional efficiency.
- Custom Dentures Feel and Look Natural- Custom dentures can turn your dream of wearing a dazzling smile, into reality. The custom dentures are unique in their personalization feature. Dr. VanderMolen can continue to alter the look until the patient is contented.
The material used in the fabrication of custom dentures makes the teeth look naturally white. Used on the porcelain prosthetic teeth, it mimics the enamel of natural teeth by reflecting light just as natural teeth do.
If you have lost your natural teeth, and are in search for a comfortable yet beautiful substitute, custom dentures could be the perfect choice for you. Call (217) 717-4551 for an appointment with Advanced Dental Care of Springfield. Dr. Matt VanderMolen will help you get your desired results!
Dental Veneers: An Overview
July 7, 2014
Dental Veneers, also referred toporcelain veneers or dental porcelain laminates, are thin shells of restorative material that are placed over the outer surface of the teeth. They serve two purposes – beauty enhancement and protection of mildly damaged teeth. They are a simple solution for cosmetic problems. If the teeth are, slightly damaged, dental veneers can be applied to protect them from further damage. This way, extensive and expensive cosmetic or restorative treatment procedures can be evaded.
Dental veneers can fix a variety of problems such as:
- Discoloration or staining of teeth.
- Gaps between teeth.
- Misaligned, asymmetrical shaped, uneven, or crooked teeth.
- Fractured or chippedteeth.
- Wearing away of the layer of enamel.
Dental Veneers require a rather simple procedure that can be done in as little as 1 – 2 visits.
Our team at Advanced Dental Care of Springfield has the experience to deliver you the high quality care you deserve. To find out more about porcelain dental veneers, give us a call at (217) 717-4551 and book a consultation Dr. Matt VanderMolen.
