Cosmetic dentistry allows our patients from Granger, Mishawaka, and Elkhart to achieve stunning smiles. Our team at Watkins Family Dentistry can address a range of dental imperfections from stained teeth to tooth loss with our advanced skills, materials, and technology. While cosmetic dentistry focuses on the aesthetics of your smile, certain treatments can also boost your oral health. Same-day dental crowns can save a tooth from extraction, while tooth-colored fillings can restore dental function and improve a smile affected by tooth decay. Dr. Watkins offers more than just advanced dentistry at our Elkhart practice. Our cosmetic dentist also provides PDO thread lifts and injectables such as BOTOX® Cosmetic and dermal fillers to combat the telltale signs of aging.
A dental implant is a dental treatment that creates an artificial tooth root by surgically placing a strong titanium post into your jawbone. Dr. Watkins has extensive training in restoring teeth with this procedure and can attach a dental crown to the titanium post to replace the missing tooth. Our restorations are of the highest quality and are customized to match your natural teeth. If more than one tooth is missing, multiple titanium implants can offer stable support to dental bridges and dentures. Our dentist offers All-on-6 implants, which only uses six implants per dental arch to reduce recovery time and cost. Learn if dental implants are right for you during a no-pressure consultation with our warm, compassionate dentist. Dr. Watkins can explain what dental implant surgery involves and answer any questions you may have, such as procedure length and dental implant costs.
Dr. Watkins and his team are dedicated to providing you with a customized, comfortable denture to restore your missing teeth. Using the most streamlined and accurate dental technology, we offer successful longterm solutions that exceed our patient's expectations. Dr. Watkins has extensive experience in advanced restorative dentistry, achieving Diplomat level training (the highest distinction) with the International Dental Implant Association. You can expect nothing less than top-of-the-line dental care with our knowledgeable team.
Dr. Watkins will first determine whether you are in good oral health and that All-on-4 dental implants are a good match for your dental needs. Then we can begin planning for the implant procedure. Placing the implants requires minor surgery. We will numb the area prior to the surgery, and we can provide sedation upon request. An incision will be made in the gums to access the jawbone, and a small amount of tissue will be removed before our dentist places your implants.
