Here's Three Benefits of Getting COSMETIC Dentistry:
Have you been debating whether to have any cosmetic dentistry procedures? Even if you are not a movie star, you can have some advantages with a brighter smile that go beyond just appearance. Here are three reasons how cosmetic dentistry can benefit you and your teeth.
1) Tooth protection. Some cosmetic procedures can improve your overall dental health if other conditions, such as gum disease or a misaligned bite, are first addressed. In addition, you are more likely to take good care of your teeth in order to preserve your new smile.
2) More confidence. People who have their teeth repaired are more likely to feel better about themselves. That boost of self-esteem can improve your performance at work, it can help you in dating as well as doing better at school! When you feel better about your teeth, your self-assurance will be noticeable to friends and colleagues. It can be a real life-changer!
3) Better function. Certain cosmetic treatment may make your overall dental health better. When missing teeth are replaced or crooked teeth straightened, for example, you can chew better with less discomfort. You may not have any restrictions on crunchy or chewy foods that may have been difficult to eat before your cosmetic procedure.
Cosmetic dentistry can enhance the overall look of your teeth. Even small changes can be noticeable and make you happier with your appearance. Dr. Juan Molina has many affordable options to help you improve your smile cosmetically! Give our team a call today.
If you ever need a root canal, here's what to expect!
The stories are out there. You’ve seen a bad scene in the movies or on television. Perhaps a friend or a colleague relayed their nightmare. But getting a root canal is not the experience that it is often portrayed as. Today’s root canals are relatively painless and can be performed quickly using only a small amount of local anesthetic. The hardest part is knowing that you will have your mouth opened wide for an extended period of time
• Pre-surgery: Since a root canal involves an infection, you will more than likely receive antibiotics prior to the procedure.
• The Procedure: The dentist goes in and extracts the damaged tissue and nerve endings, effectively “killing” the tooth but keeping the exterior of it intact.
• Wrapping Up: The hole is then packed with material to prevent any further infection and keep food from getting lodged.
• Follow up: A few weeks after the procedure, the tooth is covered with a crown to restore functionality.
Your tooth is a living part of your body with nerve endings that pick up sensitivity to temperature. A root canal occurs when there is significant damage to the tooth. Remember that a decaying tooth is actually poisoning your body. While it is rare, it is possible to die from a tooth infection. Prevention is KEY! Regular check ups, cleanings and exams by Dr. Juan Molina and his team of professionals can help you prevent severe dental conditions - call us today and let us plan a custom prevention plan, just for you!
Dental Implants Can Help You Restore Your Smile!
When it comes to self-confidence, your smile is important. When the health of your teeth is compromised, it can be hard to smile about anything. Dentures or bridges aren’t always an option and sometimes they’re too uncomfortable to withstand. Fortunately, there is a better option out there. Dental implants are replacement teeth that are fixed to surgically implanted posts. Here are three reasons why you’ll smile more with implants:
They Look Natural:
Your smile will not only look beautiful but it will also look completely natural. It’ll be as though you have your teeth back. You want to be able to show off your teeth without being self-conscious.
A Permanent Fix for Teeth Loss:
With dental implants, you don’t have to struggle with dentures that need to be taken out or bridges that could break. They are going to last. While surgically implanted, they are as close as you can get to having your adult teeth back.
Fewer Risks:
Without teeth and even with the use of dentures, you run the risk of jawbone deterioration. With dental implants, they help in keeping the bone structure strong. They will also make sure that your facial muscles don’t atrophy through the lack of teeth.
