Anterior teeth

« Back to Glossary Index

Anterior teeth are the front teeth in the mouth, including the incisors and canines. These teeth are the most visible when smiling and are important for both aesthetics and function. Anterior teeth play a crucial role in biting, chewing, and speaking, and any issues with these teeth can cause discomfort and affect overall oral health.

As a local family dentist, we understand the importance of maintaining healthy anterior teeth. We offer a range of services to address any issues with these teeth, including fillings, crowns, and veneers. Our team of experienced professionals uses the latest technology and techniques to ensure that our patients receive the best possible care.

One common issue with anterior teeth is discoloration or staining. This can be caused by a variety of factors, including genetics, aging, and lifestyle habits such as smoking or drinking coffee. At our practice, we offer teeth whitening treatments to help restore the natural brightness of our patients' teeth. We also offer cosmetic bonding, which involves applying a tooth-colored resin to the surface of the teeth to improve their appearance.

Another common issue with anterior teeth is damage or decay. This can be caused by trauma, poor oral hygiene, or other factors. Our team can provide fillings or crowns to repair damaged teeth and prevent further decay. We also offer root canal therapy for more severe cases of decay or infection.

At Miller Comfort Dental, we are committed to providing our patients with the highest quality dental care. We understand that healthy anterior teeth are essential for both oral health and overall well-being.
