Dental Crowns

Over time our teeth begin to weaken and become more susceptible to problems such as decay, cracks, and discoloration. Fortunately, our doctors at Healthy Smiles Family Dental offer restorative treatment options, such as dental crowns. A dental crown is a tooth-shaped “cap” that is placed over a tooth – to cover the tooth to restore its shape and size, strength, and improve its appearance. Dental crowns have many uses, such as being able to “cap” a damaged tooth or cover an implant. They can also be used to attach bridges, protect a weak tooth from breaking, or restore one that’s already broken.


Dental crowns are a secure way to restore your smile. They help save a tooth (or teeth) that have been so damaged by decay that it can’t support a filling, as well as protect the teeth that are at a high risk of decay, especially when one doesn’t practice proper oral care. The type of material that our doctor will use for a dental crown will be discussed during the initial consultation. On average, dental crowns can last between five-fifteen years depending on how well the patient takes care of them.

Benefits of Teeth Whitening

Teeth become discolored by the foods we eat, the beverages we consume, and from lifestyle factors such as smoking, or taking certain medications. Discoloration is a natural part of life but when a patient desires a whiter smile, teeth whitening or bleaching can improve the color of teeth by several shades. At Healthy Smiles Family Dental, Dr. Na Xu gives patients the option to whiten in-office, or in the comfort of his or her own home. Teeth bleaching is one of the most common dental procedures that is performed across the country. Once the teeth become brighter, a person will feel a boost in his or her self-esteem and may desire to smile more than ever before. After scheduling a consultation to decide if whitening is right for you, Dr. Xu will either recommend whitening at home, with custom trays that will be created for you in the office, or laser whitening. If you have questions or concerns regarding teeth whitening or bleaching, please give us a call. To learn about services provid

Dental Implants

For many years, options to restore missing teeth were limited. Fortunately today, these options have expanded into dentures, bridges, and dental implants. At Healthy Smiles Family Dental, our doctors utilize dental implants to restore a patient’s shape of the face and improve their self-esteem all while restoring the health of their mouth. Dental implants, also known as replacement tooth roots, provide a strong foundation for permanent or removable dentures that are designed to match the color of your natural teeth. Dental implants are a successful way to improve your appearance, improve speech, and make it easier to chew. Unlike teeth that slide, dental implants stay in place and can last up to 10 years with proper oral care. If you are missing teeth and would like to explore your restoration options, we can help. If you have questions or concerns regarding dental implants, please give us a call. To learn about services provided at our practice, visit www.myfamilydentistsalem.com for
