Did you know that 69% of adults have at least one missing tooth? Are you one of them? People with incomplete smiles miss out on a lot: eating becomes uncomfortable, facial appearance suffers, and the quality of life diminishes. Dr. Bernard Greenbaum is an experienced and talented restorative dentist. He offers dental implant restorations and an on-site periodontist for implant placement to give patients with missing teeth attractive, long-lasting, and natural-looking smiles.

What is a dental implant?
Dental implants are man-made replacements for natural teeth. A small titanium post inserted into the jawbone acts as a tooth root to hold in place a custom crown or other dental prosthetic. Dental implants can replace single teeth and stabilize dentures, partials, and bridges.

Most of us have at least one metal filling. Amalgam (a mixture of metals, including mercury) used to be the only option a dentist had to fill a decayed tooth. Advances in dentistry have made it possible to ditch the metal. As a leader in progressive, patient-focused dental care, Dr. Bernard Greenbaum applies safe, durable, composite resin fillings. This material delivers outstanding results and protects teeth from further damage. Plus, the doctor tints it to match natural tooth color. No unsightly dark fillings to mar your smile!

Cavities aren’t just for kids. Adults get them, too. In fact, studies show that 90% of adults have experienced dental caries (the medical term for tooth decay). Tooth or mouth pain is a common symptom of a cavity. If you need a filling, don’t get a potentially damaging metal one – get a safe, tooth-colored one from your Bethesda dentist, Dr. Greenbaum.
