Porcelain Veneers for Medford, Winchester, Somerville, Malden and Everett Patients

October 9, 2013

porcelain veneers Do you find yourself looking at your smile in the mirror and wanting to refresh and improve the appearance of your smile? Are you hesitant about committing to a lot of dental work or have multiple concerns that you’d like to address? Giamberardino Dental Care may have the right solution for your smile with porcelain veneers.

If your teeth are affected by chips, cracks, gaps, stains or are misshapen, this could be a great solution for your smile. Porcelain veneers are thin pieces of porcelain that are attached to the fronts of your teeth. This allows Dr. Giamberardino the opportunity to reshape the appearance of your teeth, correcting any concerns or imperfections.

For many patients, porcelain veneers can be an attractive alternative to braces. They’re best used for small smile issues. We’ll also make sure your porcelain veneers are carefully crafted to resemble the rest of your smile for a seamless look. Porcelain is a great material because it closely resembles the appearance of natural tooth enamel, so no one will be able to tell that you’ve had any work done to your smile.

This is yet another great way that cosmetic dentistry can help to improve your smile and improve your life. Give us a call if you’re interested in learning more about porcelain veneers or want to schedule your appointment. This is a simple way to make a dramatic change to the appearance of your smile.

Dr. Giamberardino Can Restore Your Smile with Dental Implants

September 25, 2013

Is the appearance of your smile marred due to missing teeth? Do you find yourself wishing for a complete smile once again but aren’t sure what to do? At Giamberardino Dental Care we can help restore your smile and replace missing teeth with dental implants.

Dental implants are a preferred tooth-replacement option because they are a more secure and permanent solution than other methods. For implants, a titanium post will be inserted into your jawbone. Over time the post and your jawbone will bond, creating a secure base for your implant. This firm base helps to mimic the roots of a natural tooth and ensures that your dental implant will last. The post will be topped with a custom crafted crown to complete your restoration.

Another benefit of dental implants is that this method helps to retain more of your jawbone and keep it from deteriorating over time. Once the roots of your teeth are gone, it’s harder to retain your natural bone structure. Also, you won’t have any fit or potential slippage issues like you would with dentures.

If you’re missing teeth, dental implants are a great choice to restore your smile and replace missing teeth. If you’re interested in learning more, please give us a call. We want all of our patients to have beautiful, complete smiles.

What is the Difference Between a Crown and an Onlay?

July 29, 2013

Fillings are a great, simple solution when your tooth is suffering from a cavity. Unfortunately, as your teeth are filled and filled again over the years, eventually there won’t be enough tooth structure left to support another filling. When this happens, we recommend using a crown or an onlay.

At Dr. Giamberardino’s dental office, sometimes patients ask us about the differences between a crown and an onlay. While both of these are great restorative treatments that can return function and appearance to a tooth, they are better for different situations.

A crown is a cap for your tooth and is best suited for restoring teeth with extensive decay. An onlay is a more conservative treatment that’s better suited to a tooth with less decay because it covers a portion of the tooth. Dr. Giamberardino will determine the right solution depending on how much of your natural tooth structure remains.

Crowns and onlays are great solutions for teeth that have become damaged or decayed beyond what can be repaired by a filling. If you have a tooth in need of repair, give us a call today and see how we can help restore your smile.

Cosmetic Bonding Provides a Quick Smile Update

July 22, 2013

At Dr. Giamberardino’s dental office, we offer a variety of cosmetic dentistry solutions to help improve your smile. One of these procedures is cosmetic bonding. This is a quick way to improve the appearance of your smile.

Bonding describes a process of affixing cosmetic resin to the teeth to help cover up flaws or imperfections. The resin is cured and hardened for a strong bond with your tooth. Cosmetic bonding is used to hide chips and stains, cover small gaps and even help to correct a slight misalignment. The resin is custom matched to your tooth color for a natural looking restoration.

This treatment is best for correcting small areas. If more extensive restorations are needed, crowns or porcelain veneers may be a better choice. Dr. Giamberardino can examine your smile and come up with the right treatment to help your smile look great.

If you’re not satisfied with your smile when you look in the mirror, there’s a lot of cosmetic dentistry solutions available to help. Cosmetic bonding can be a great way to improve the appearance of your smile by covering over small imperfections.
