There are several ways in which your teeth can become stained over time; through genetics or by age, tobacco, some medications and through some food and beverages teeth can become stained or discolored. The in-office cosmetic whitening procedure is one that will yield the highest results and can whiten teeth up to 9 shades. No matter your age, a beautiful smile can boost your confidence and change the way you feel about yourself.

ONE VISIT

Your new bright, white smile can help you look younger, healthier, and more vibrant. We have researched the available technology in the market and have chosen to use what we believe to be the best types of whitening systems.

Every Situation Calls for a Bright White Smile

Whether it is a first date or a business meeting, you need all of your tools and assets at your disposal. A self-confident smile should be one of those tools. With technology come choices that can help you smile with confidence.

Even the smallest change to your smile can affect the way you look and feel about yourself. Consider teeth whitening. But consider it the right way.

Over-the-counter whiteners are a bit of a cumbersome process that generally only whitens the front 6 teeth. Whitening toothpastes and rinses have minimal effect on the stained or yellowed teeth.

Teeth Whitening done at the dentist’s office is much more controlled, is easier to use, and produces better results. All toothpastes help remove surface stains and some whitening toothpastes contain gentle polishing or chemical agents. These have more stain removal effectiveness.

But these whitening toothpastes help remove surface stains only, they can lighten your tooth's color by about one shade. In contrast, light-activated whitening conducted at Dream Smile Dental can make your teeth three to eight shades lighter. In-office dental bleaching provides the quickest way to whiten teeth.

Summer is the Perfect Time for Invisalign

refresh your smile this summer than with Invisalign. Many believe that Invisalign is synonymous with braces; however Invisalign invisibly straightens your teeth with a series of custom-molded aligners.

Forget what you think you know about teeth straightening. Because now there’s something different that lets you get the smile you always wanted without metal, brackets and wires.

By using a series of clear, removable aligners, Invisalign straightens your teeth. Every 2 weeks these aligners are changed while your teeth move until they have reached the final position your dentist has prescribed. These aligners are comfortable and removable so you can eat, drink, brush, and floss as usual.

Generally a typical Invisalign case takes about a year from start to finish. Invisalign can be used to treat the majority of common problems for adults and teens. You may want minor improvements or perhaps you need larger adjustments to your smile. In either case Invisalign can help. Used successfully to treat overly crowded and widely spaced teeth, it can also help with problems with overbites, underbites and crossbites.

For straight teeth, healthier gums and a sunnier smile contact Dream Smile Dental and you can take advantage of our summer special, $500 off an Invisalign Treatment.
 

Neuromuscular Dentistry Eliminates TMJ

28 Apr

Posted by Joseph Coupal

There are three different factors which determine your bite: teeth, muscles and joints. Neuromuscular dentistry uses modern technology to assess the function -or dysfunction- of the jaw by evaluating all of these and creating the optimum bite for your jaw structure while creating your new beautiful smile.

If you suffer from headaches, ear congestion, dizziness, difficulty swallowing, neck pain, jaw clenching or teeth grinding, jaw joint pain, and even nervousness or insomnia this treatment can pinpoint the source. In evaluating your teeth, and the muscles and joints of your jaw, you can alleviate TMJ disorders and in the process, get the smile you have always dreamed of.

There are various types of muscles located in the face and neck that hold your jaw, control the movement of your jaw, and allow you to chew and swallow; all of which is done subconsciously. If your bite is off, your body automatically strains the muscles of your jaw, working the muscles extra hard. This is why the temporomandibular joints become over stressed and TMJ occurs. The goal of Dream Smile Dental is to find and restore your jaw to its natural, optimal position. TMJ disorders are eliminated by restoring your jaw to that position where the muscles, teeth and joints are in balance.   This takes the pressure off of your joints and overstrained muscles, eliminates jaw or teeth clenching, and allows for your muscles to act naturally, and with no effort, make your jaw function properly.

Dental Implants Help with Your Dental Health and Appearance

Dental Implants are a great option to consider for replacing missing teeth. Rather than resting a false tooth on the gum line or using adjacent teeth as anchors, implants act as long-term replacements that your periodontist fixes into the jawbone before the cosmetic dentist can place a permanent crown on top of it.
 
Tooth loss can have a far-reaching effect on your dental health and personal appearance. Dental implants are artificial replacements designed to fully replace lost teeth both in functionality and in appearance. Dental implants are very durable and have a long-lasting life. Once installed, they can last for at least 10 to 15 years or even more depending on the aftercare that is taken.

Due to new technology, it is now possible to replace missing teeth and actually implant a working and natural looking tooth. The most popular dental implants are made from titanium. Titanium is used because it has a number of properties which make it very suitable; it is very durable and is very resistant to corrosion. It is biocompatible, which means that the human immune system should not reject implants made from titanium.  Osseointegration is the process where the titanium dental implants implanted into the bone and the cells of the bone fuse with the titanium. They grow together making the implant very stable; because of this, titanium is the material of choice.
 
The first step to dental implants is where the titanium screw is implanted into the jawbone. Once the gum line heals fully, the crown is built over the titanium implant. The crown is constructed from porcelain or composite materials and is built in such a way that it matches the surrounding teeth.
