Dr Scott Overholser DDS as a Dentist
Dr Scott Overholser DDS provides all facets of dentistry to his patients, but the core of his practice lies in cosmetic dentistry. Although amalgam, the conventional name for silver fillings, has been used for over 100 years in dentistry with great success, newer composite filling materials offer superior biocombatability, last longer, and have the added bonus of replicating lost tooth structure in a cosmetically pleasing manner. These composite materials actually bond to enamel, in essence “gluing” them to the tooth, whereas the older generation amalgam fillings sit passively within the tooth allowing bacteria to “leak” around them.
Another service Dr Scott Overholser DDS offers his patients is metal-free restorations. While this includes composite fillings, it also encompasses all-ceramic crowns, bridges, and onlays/inlays. New-generation porcelain, which is fabricated in a lab under microscopes for precision fitting, has become stronger, better fitting, and more economical. These are just a few ways in which cosmetic dentistry has improved the lives of patients.
