Do your old silver fillings irritate your teeth and cause cosmetic difficulties?

• Cerec restorations are the perfect answer!  With old silver fillings, patients can start to see or feel wear on the surface or sides of the teeth.  This is normal for silver fillings, but with new technology, we can see that white ceramic restorations will hold longer and look esthetically appealing.

• Discovering what Invisalign can offer may be the best option.  Invisalign is a virtually invisible solution so you can smile during, as well as, after treatment.  It is also comfortable to wear and does not require you to change your busy lifestyle.  With Invisalign you can remove the aligners while you eat so you don't have to worry about brackets falling off or having mouth irratation caused by braces.

Do you have irritated, swollen,  bleeding gums or constant bad breath ?

• This may be the start of periodontal disease or gum disease.   Swelling, soreness or bleeding of the gums around your teeth, called gingivitis, is an indicator of gum disease. However, the signs of gum disease are not always easy to see and can be painless.  The earlier gum disease is caught, the easier it is to be treated.  It is important to schedule cleanings every 6 months in order for the doctors to be able to spot and treat peridontal disease.  If untreated,  gum disease can lead to the shifting of teeth and in some cases the loss of teeth as well as contribute to poor overall health.  Periodontal disease has been linked to illness such as heart disease, stroke and diabetes.
