General dentistry means that your entire family can receive expert dental care at our Franklin office, which means added convenience.
If a tooth is damaged to the point that over half the tooth will be filling material, the tooth may require a crown to reliably restore its function. The purpose of a crown is to cover what is left of the tooth, protecting it from further damage. Sometimes, teeth with small fillings, or no fillings at all will develop fractures that cause sensitivity to biting or cold.
At McKay's Mill Dental, it's our mission to ensure the healthiest teeth possible, and that may include restorative dental services, such as crowns. A crown is a cap placed over a tooth to cover and protect it. Dental crowns have undergone many changes since their inception.
In the past, materials such as metal and gold were the strongest options available, but they obviously left a lot to be desired when considering esthetics and better options are available today.Porcelain fused to metal crowns have been the standard for many years now and are still the appropriate choice in some situations.

Fillings repair and restore the health and function of teeth that have cavities, which is tooth decay caused when plaque and acid have worn away the tooth's protective outer enamel. Fillings restore teeth to normal shape and function, and Dr. Matt Avrit, your dentist in Franklin, only utilizes tooth colored fillings as his material of choice.
Root canal therapy is used to repair and save a tooth that has been infected due to a deep cavity or cracked tooth. The treatment involves removing the pulp and the nerves of the tooth, and cleaning the infected area. A tooth's pulp and nerve is not important to a tooth's health and function after the tooth has fully emerged from the gums.

My appointment was on time and the cleaning was done promptly in a professional manner. The entire experience was very pleasant and I highly recommend this dental office. I have family living in Franklin and prefer to get my dental check-ups done here while visiting from Atlanta as I always receive excellent service.
