Natural teeth aren’t necessarily as white as TV commercials suggest. It’s unfortunate that such an image has given rise to the misconception that white teeth are the embodiment of peak dental health, while any teeth with a hint of yellow—which is well within their natural hue—are often seen as unsightly.

Let’s start by giving you a straight answer: “No, they can’t.” Unlike natural teeth, dental implants in New Albany and elsewhere are built from inorganic materials. These include the titanium-based tooth root and the composite or metal crown. The dental crown itself has high resistance to acids that otherwise eat through enamel with ease, and… Continue reading Can Dental Implants Get Cavities? Understanding Implant Care and Longevity

Modern cosmetic dentistry treatments are designed to last, but nothing lasts forever. Even if you’re strict about maintaining good oral hygiene, veneers will eventually lose their hues, and porcelain crowns may degrade due to wear and tear. Even dental implants, which most people believe can last forever (which isn’t entirely wrong), can start failing after… Continue reading Understanding the Longevity of Cosmetic Dentistry

One reason is that they share most of the problems they address, ranging from missing or broken teeth to discoloration. On that note, they more or less use the same solutions, from veneers to dental implants. However, that’s where their similarities end. Even though… Continue reading Comparing Cosmetic and Restorative Dentistry: Advantages of Cosmetic Dentistry

Two things usually come to mind when hearing or coming across the term “cosmetic.” The first is that it’s concerned with improving one’s appearance. As such, cosmetic dentistry is concerned with enhancing the appearance of teeth—nothing too complicated. The second, depending on where you stand, is that it’s either essential or optional.

The invention of dental implants is widely considered a breakthrough in modern dentistry. Imagine a person being able to smile or chew properly again after losing their natural teeth to aging or disease thanks to these replacement teeth.

Research shows that a persons oral health directly correlates to a person’s overall health. Most people treat teeth as separate from the rest of the body, but, in fact, the mouth is an entry point for harmful microbes deep into the body. Considering that many diseases don’t become visible until have progressed significantly, dental problems
