I was completely at ease during my appointment here. They went to great lengths to make sure I was completely relaxed and comfortable the entire time. The restrooms at this office were spotless. It smelled amazing in there and looked immaculate. It was nice to hear how much the staff respected them. It made me that much more confident that I was under the care of a professional. They have a very good professional reputation. I know that I'm under the care of an expert. I spend a little too much time in the waiting room. I've waited longer at other offices, but I was hoping to be seen sooner.- BLaman

It all started with our daughter Helene, in regard to the dental practice of Dr. Chi Fu. Our daughter spoke so highly of Dr. Fu, and eventually my wife and I experienced the same feelings for him. We are both seniors and have lived a lifetime in Port Chester. I would be safe to say, that our entire experience, from the dental personnel, office manager, technicians, hygienists and Dr. Fu has been one of a positive nature. The on hands manner, in which Dr. Fu gives, is above any other dentist we have dealt with. He truly shows a concern for our well being, and takes the time to explain everything. Our appointments are given in a reasonable time period, and that appears to us, as a sign of accommodations, that were not experienced with our previous dentist. We definitely recommend Dr. Fu and his staff for anyone who is seeking an excellent, reliable dental service.- Bedford & Lucille Brown

This is a letter of recommendation for my dentist, Dr. Fu, my dental hygienist, Barbara and all the medical staff in the office. My name is Maggie Worell and I have been a patient in this office for many years now. My first connection was with Barbara: she has been my hygienist for more than twenty years. When Barbara went to work for Dr. Fu I followed her to that office. It was one of the wiser decisions I have made with regard to my health care. My teeth have always been problematic. Barbara has been responsible for the healthy condition of my gums. She is a diligent hygienist. Her attention to detail goes way beyond the norm! You can tell she likes her job and it comes through in her performance. Dr. Fu is a skillful dentist. He is patient and thorough. He does not rush to a conclusion but rather with take his time and consider all the possibilities. He always tries to ease your anxiety. It is a big job when it comes to me and he is quite successful. Also the cosmetic work that he has done looks very natural. Dr. Fu is also one of the kindest dentists that I have known. Needless to say that at my age I have known a few and I can tell you that Dr. Fu really cares about his patients. In fact Dr. Fu's first task was to undo the poor dentistry of my former dentist. This involved root canal work gone bad and was quite complicated. He handled it in a professional and caring manner. He immediately gained my trust and it has never wavered since then. More than once I have had to make an emergency appointment and I have received incredible attention from all the office staff. Dr. Fu sets a high standard in the office and that kindness and caring shines through with all of the staff! Finally I no longer reside in the New York area. A dental appointment is a trip for me. Nevertheless I would not think of finding a new dentist. I know what good dentistry is and it is a time commitment I am willing to make.- Maggie Worell

Dear Dr. Fu and team, Thank you so much for the great job you did with my laminates and crowns. I have a new smile!!

Dear Dr. Fu, I have been seeing you for over five years as my dentist and what a difference you and your staff have made in my life. Just walking into your office I feel at home with a wealth of greetings from you and the staff you work with. The technology in the office is all state-of-the-art as compared to the last dentist I worked with who still had charts that were handwritten. Your friendly personality and warm nature comes across through the everyday work you do and makes a difference in developing relationships with your patients. For many people going to the dentist is a scary experience; I have been blessed because going to your office is a pleasure and something I look forward to. Thank you for all of the great work you have done. My trust in you has enabled me to refer family, friends and co-workers to you to which speaks volumes of your practice. Keep up the excellent work you do ... it makes a difference in the lives of others. I love to smile and the work you and your staff have done makes me smile even more.- Janet Smith

Like many people, going to the dentist is not one of my favorite things! However, Dr. Chi Fu and his friendly office and dental assisting staff consistently make my visits a pleasant and relaxing experience. Dr. Fu is always patient, careful, and has excellent professional skills. I strongly recommend him without hesitation if you are in need of dental services.- Charles Coletti

Having dental work performed in the past was always agonizing for me and quite frankly, I'd rather have had surgery than dental work! With that in mind, I just want to thank you for all the beautiful dental work you have done on my teeth since last August. I've had several old crowns removed and replaced because of receding gums, my teeth whitened, a root canal performed and 7 veneers done on my upper front teeth. All of this work has greatly improved the appearance of my teeth, which were crooked and discolored, I no longer get food caught between my teeth, and I love my new appearance. When I look in the mirror, I can't believe it's my smile. I am a true believer that your teeth can make you look a lot older than your actual years and my new smile makes me look a good 10 years younger than I actually am! I know it's important to keep your teeth healthy and in good shape because bad teeth can lead to gum disease and even heart problems. But when the word "dentist" was ever spoken in my presence, I would cringe and hope another tooth wouldn't break, a cavity become apparent, or a filling fall out. You have a terrific staff assisting you and it's a pleasure not to have to wait past my appointment time. I would highly recommend Chester Hill Dental to everyone.- Beth

When I was referred to Dr. Fu's office, by my sister Kerry, for dental care, I was so happy that the staff was so friendly and laid back. Dr. Fu is the nicest dentist. After a tew visits, I asked him for a consultation for Invisalign. Since I was a child I've always hated my teeth. Dr. Fu explained the whole process of Invisalign. It really seemed very simple. I liked the fact that they were clear, removable and convenient. Now that the procedure is done I can't say enough how happy I am with the results. For the first time I'm not ashamed of my teeth. Thanks for everything, Dr. Fu; I'm actually proud of my smile now!- Daniele Bochicchio

I always felt nervous and uncomfortable visiting dentists until I met Dr. Fu. I have had many unpleasant experiences, hence my teeth were in dire need of the best dentist I could find. Dr. Fu was recommended to me just in time! I can't thank him enough. Also, my teeth are beautiful now. I can smile again!- Catherine Gillespie
Damaged Teeth? Dental Inlays and Onlays Are Non-Invasive Restorations
Broken and damaged teeth can turn into big dental problems if they are not tended to quickly. If the discomfort isn’t enough to encourage you to see your Chester Hill dentist, it can help to know that you aren’t necessarily destined for a porcelain crown. Dental inlays and onlays are a conservative approach to tooth restorations, and this non-invasive dental repair is available from Dr. Chi Fu, cosmetic dentist in Rye Brook, NY.
What Are Dental Inlays and Onlays?
Dental inlays and onlays are used to repair teeth that have mild to moderate tooth decay, or teeth that are damaged but do not warrant a full dental crown. The inlays and onlays can be made using porcelain, composite resin, and even gold. Porcelain is one of the most common choices for its ability to mimic your natural tooth color and blend in with the rest of your teeth.
The application of dental inlays and onlays is the same, but the placement of the restorations differs. Inlays are positioned on the biting surface of the tooth, which is the top center of a tooth. Inlays act similarly to filling. An onlay is a larger restoration that also covers the top center of a tooth but also extends over one or more of the tooth’s cusps. Onlays are also known as a “partial crown.”
Are You a Candidate for a Dental Inlay or Onlay?
If you have any of the following dental concerns, an inlay or onlay may be a viable repair option:
- Old fillings.
- Chipped teeth.
- Decayed teeth.
- Dull teeth.
- Gapped teeth.
Teeth that are deteriorating or that border problem teeth can be stabilized to prevent further dental problems from developing.
Benefits of Dental Inlays and Onlays
Dental inlays and onlays are popular restorations thanks to their many benefits:
- Versatile – able to repair multiple dental problems.
- Natural appearance – virtually invisible compared to metal fillings.
- Less-invasive procedure – minimal removal of tooth structure which preserves the tooth.
- Excellent fit – will not expand or contract because of temperature.
- Durability – incredibly strong.
- Longevity – can last up to 30 years, longer than any other type of filling.
The Dental Inlay and Onlay Procedure
Typically, two visits to your Rye Brook, NY, cosmetic dentist are required to place your inlay or onlay. During the first visit, an impression of your tooth will be taken then sent to a lab for the creation of the permanent inlay or onlay.
Your problem tooth will be fitted for a temporary restoration to protect the tooth in-between visits. This protective material will be removed at your second visit so your new permanent inlay or onlay can be bonded in place.
Choosing Between Dental Inlays and Onlays and Porcelain Crowns
Your Westchester cosmetic dentist will present you with all the pros and cons of dental inlays and onlays and porcelain crowns so that together you can make the best decision for your tooth restoration.
Crowns are considered an excellent solution for many damaged teeth. However, when a great deal of tooth structure will need to be removed to make room for the crown, an onlay may be the smarter choice. Onlays often help prevent dental complications and minimize the chances of more problems in the future.
If you have a problem tooth but are concerned about the type of repair you will need, contact our Chester Hill Dentistry office and make an appointment with Dr. Fu to discuss your cosmetic and restorative dentistry options, including dental inlays and onlays. We serve the residents of Rye, Westchester, Port Chester, Rye Brook, and surrounding areas, including Greenwich, CT.
