Make The Decision To Restore Dental Health

A healthy mouth is a sign of a healthy body.  Studies show that damaged and missing teeth play a role in both physical and mental health.  People with poor dental health often suffer with low self-image, self-consciousness and even depression.  In addition, when you cannot eat properly due to missing or painful teeth, your diet suffers.  People with poor dental health often suffer with other chronic health problems such as obesity and diabetes because proper nutrition is extremely difficult if not impossible.  Make the decision to end the problems associated with poor dental health and take control of your well-being in 2014.  Restoring your teeth and gums through cosmetic dentistry and restorative dental procedures can have a huge impact on how you look, feel and live.

Cosmetic Dental Procedures

Healthy teeth can be enhanced with professional teeth whitening procedures such as take-home bleaching trays and in-office Zoom! Whitening treatments. For misshapen or permanently discolored teeth, cosmetic porcelain veneers can enhance your teeth, providing a beautiful, even, white smile.  Repairing damaged teeth with tooth-colored fillings and cosmetic dental crowns can restore strength and function in addition to appearance.

Tooth Replacement Options

Missing teeth can take a serious toll on overall health.  A recent UK study found that for some people, losing teeth produces a sense of loss similar to that of losing a limb.  If missing teeth prevent you from enjoying life, laughing, eating and smiling then consider dental implants for tooth replacement.  Implant dentistry has proven to be the most dependable and effective form of tooth replacement producing a 98% success rate for almost 50 years.  For permanent tooth replacement, dental implants are the most predictable and reliable method of tooth replacement available today.

Sometimes, tooth replacement with a dental bridge is the best option.  A dental bridge uses crowns on the teeth adjacent to the space to support a prosthetic tooth in between.  A dental bridge looks and functions similar to a natural tooth and allows for patients to eat most foods as well as smile and laugh with confidence.
