Have You Scheduled Your Child’s Back-to-School Visit?

August 30, 2012

For many kids, late August marks the end of that sacred time known as summer vacation and signals the start of a new school year. And with a new school year comes months of homework, projects, tests, and extracurricular activities, all of which can leave little time for a dental exam and cleaning with Dr. Giamberardino. So why not schedule your child’s back-to-school checkup now instead of later?

It’s true the beginning of a new school year is also a busy time—you have new clothes and school supplies to buy, on top of making sure there aren’t any last-minute things to take care of. But as busy as life might currently be, isn’t it better to schedule a checkup now, before all the demands of school make time even more scarce?

What to Expect from a Back-to-School Checkup

A back-to-school checkup may not be any different from a normal checkup, but that doesn’t make it any less important. Especially with the holidays coming up, you want to make sure that your child’s teeth are in great shape.

During your child’s back-to-school checkup, Dr. Giamberardino will take a close look at your son or daughter’s smile to check for signs of common oral health problems. We’ll also take X-rays so we can get an even clearer look at how your child’s smile is doing. Then, after a comprehensive exam and a professional cleaning, we can recommend a follow-up service if we need to.

Are You Ready to Schedule Your Child’s Next Visit?

If you are, don’t hesitate to call our team at Giamberardino Dental Care in Medford today. We’re always happy to help patients of any age achieve optimal oral health. We serve patients from Winchester, Somerville, Malden, Everett, and surrounding areas.

Taking Years Off Your Smile with Great Services from Giamberardino Dental Care

August 9, 2012

Time changes how you look and feel, but it also impacts your smile. Besides causing teeth to become stained, aging—and other factors, like decay or gum disease—can also cause teeth to weaken or fall out. But at Giamberardino Dental Care, we’re making smiles new again every day using some of the latest and most effective restorative services available anywhere.

Our services include dental implants, CEREC crowns, porcelain veneers, and much more.

Making Smiles New Again

One of the most effective services Dr. Giamberardino can offer his Medford-area patients is dental implants. With dental implants, it’s possible to replace both a missing tooth and a missing root. What’s more, implants are a versatile option—you can use them to replace just one tooth, a group of teeth, or an entire row.

Dental implants aren’t for everyone, though. That’s why our Medford office also features cosmetic services like porcelain veneers, and cosmetic-restorative services like crowns. Using our CEREC machine, we can create custom-milled porcelain crowns in about an hour, right in our office.

To find out more about the general, cosmetic, and restorative services we offer, explore our website, visit our YouTube page, or call our office. Our team would be happy to answer your questions, in addition to scheduling a visit for you. We serve patients from Medford, Winchester, Somerville, Malden, Everett, and beyond.

Carole

“Not only did the cosmetic dentistry correct an overlap on my front tooth, but my teeth look fantastic in comparison! Wish I had done this even sooner. Dr. G was great and patient through it all.”

Why Do Teeth Become Discolored?

May 10, 2012

In our last blog post, we talked briefly about the teeth whitening options available at Giamberardino Dental Care. In today’s post, we’ll look at the question posed in the title: why do teeth become discolored in the first place?

There’s no single reason. Instead, teeth discoloration is the result of several combined factors, including:

Foods
Beverages (coffees, teas, sodas, and wines)
Aging
Medications (tetracycline)
Excessive fluoride use
Genetics

One way to avoid stains is to cut back on, or even avoid, foods that are known to contribute to them. In cases where discoloration may be genetic, though, avoiding specific foods or drinks may not help. The same can also be said of brushing and flossing. While brushing and flossing are great for your oral health, they aren’t guaranteed to make your smile whiter.

Which is why, if you’ve dreamed of having a whiter smile, we recommend scheduling an appointment with our Medford office. During just a short appointment with Dr. Giamberardino, we can examine your smile and recommend a treatment that will be able to help you. In some cases, it may not be in-office or at-home teeth whitening. In other cases, it may be that a different cosmetic dentistry option would be better, like porcelain veneers or cosmetic bonding.

Get started on your smile makeover today. Call Giamberardino Dental Care to schedule your appointment. We serve patients from Medford, Winchester, Somerville, Malden, Everett, and surrounding areas.

What Should I Expect from My First Visit at Giamberardino Dental Care?

May 8, 2012

Is your upcoming visit to Giamberardino Dental Care also your first? If so, we’d like to let you know what you can expect.

First, we want you to feel welcome. Our team will do that by spending some time getting to know you and making sure you’re absolutely comfortable. Simply feeling welcome can do a lot to dispel any anxiety a first visit may stir up.

Once you’re seated comfortably in our dental chair, and you’ve had a chance to get to know Dr. Giamberardino, we’ll begin your oral exam. During your exam, we’ll take a close look at your teeth, gums, head, neck, jaw, and bite to see how everything looks. We’ll also take X-rays so we can get a better look at how your smile’s doing. If we need to, we can also take images of your teeth and gums with our intraoral camera. With advanced tools like these, it’s much easier for Dr. Giamberardino to educate patients about their smiles.

After your exam, you can expect us to complete a professional cleaning. Why is a professional cleaning so important? Because as great as your daily brushing and flossing routine might be, it takes a professional cleaning to really get teeth at their cleanest. A professional cleaning also gives our hygienist a chance to check your gums for signs of gum disease and offer valuable oral health tips.

Do You Still Have Questions About Your First Visit?

If you still have questions about what you can expect from a first visit, give Giamberardino Dental Care a call today. We’d be happy to talk with you about your appointment. And if you haven’t yet, be sure to complete our new patient form before coming to see us.

From all of us at Giamberardino Dental Care, we look forward to meeting you!
