March 19, 2012

Filed under: Cosmetic Dentistry — Tags: , , , , , , , , , — Dr. Anthony Giamberardino @ 6:54 pm

At Giamberardino Dental Care, we have three popular cosmetic dentistry services to choose from:

But as great as each of these services are, not every patient is a good candidate for every service. That’s why, if you’ve been thinking about boosting your smile with a cosmetic service, it’s important that you pay Dr. Giamberardino’s Medford dental office a visit.

Based on your medical history, the state of your oral health, and your goals for the future, Dr. Giamberardino can put together a plan that’s made just for you. In some cases, it could be a combination of services, while in others it might just be one service, like teeth whitening. Sometimes, this is what’s called a smile makeover.

If you’d like to learn more about any of the cosmetic dentistry services offered at our Medford dental office, just visit our cosmetic dentistry page, or click on one of the links above. And if you’re ready to schedule a consultation appointment with Dr. Giamberaridino, just give our office a call. We serve patients from Medford, Winchester, Somerville, Malden, and Everett, and would be happy to answer all your questions as you begin exploring your cosmetic dentistry options.

Inflammation and Heart Health

For some patients, it might come as a surprise that heart health and oral health are connected. But as we mentioned in our last post, your oral and overall health are deeply connected. And with February being so well known for Valentine’s Day, we thought now would be a good time to reiterate that connection.

Gum disease starts with bacteria and plaque building up around the teeth and gums, causing your soft tissue to become irritate and inflamed. As this inflammation and irritation continue, pockets can develop in the gum tissue. These pockets give bacteria and plaque access to the heart via the bloodstream.

Once in the heart, further irritation will cause protective plaque to build up around the arterial walls, eventually blocking the flow of blood. It’s this lack of blood flow that could someday trigger a heart attack. All of which is why regular visits to Dr. Giamberardino’s Medford dental office are essential.

To learn more about the connection between the heart and your smile, schedule a consultation visit with Dr. Giamberardino at our Medford dental office. We’re committed to helping patients from Medford, Winchester, Somerville, Malden, and Everett lead healthy lives and have healthy smiles.

Protect Your Overall Health by Making Your Oral Health a Priority

On their own, most patients aren’t likely to imagine that their oral and overall health are connected. The reality, however, is there is much more overlap between them than most may realize.

Specifically, what connect these two separate spheres are bacteria and gum disease. When gum disease isn’t treated, pockets can form between a patient’s teeth and gums. These pockets give bacteria an entrance to the body’s bloodstream and, subsequently, the rest of the body, potentially contributing to a variety of health problems that includes: (more…)

Restore Your Smile with a New Crown or Bridge from Giamberardino Dental Care

When people see a confident smile, they associate what they see with certain qualities like success, happiness, and attractiveness. If your smile has a missing or damaged tooth, it may also be missing those qualities that can be striking to others. But with a crown or bridge from Dr. Giamberardino’s Medford dental office, we can help you replace what your smile’s been missing.

What Is A Crown & Bridge?

It’s actually a device made up of two crowns and, between them, your replacement tooth or teeth, if more than one is missing. When Dr. Giamberardino places your crown and bridge, your crowns will fit over your existing teeth, with your brand new tooth filling the gap in your smile like a puzzle piece. This is also known as a fixed bridge.

For patients who want a restoration that functions exactly like a natural tooth, Giamberardino Dental Care also offers implant-retained bridges. Not everyone is a candidate for dental implants, but for patients who are, an implant-retained bridge can bring return natural functionality to your bite.

In most cases, though, regardless of which type of bridge you’ll be receiving, Dr. Giamberardino can give patients an all-ceramic bridge. With an all-ceramic bridge you can have a replacement that looks as natural as a natural tooth.

Want to find out more about restoring your smile with a bridge? Give us a call today. Our Medford office is perfectly located to serve patients from Winchester, Somerville, Malden, Everett, and surrounding areas.
