Dental bridges vs. Dental Implants, Medford, What’s Right for You?
August 5, 2015
Dental bridges are tried and tested. The first dental bridge was used 1000s of years ago as jewelry! In 700 BCE, the Etruscans adorned their teeth and filled in gaps with precious metals to display their wealth. Many people think that dental implants are a relatively new smile restoration option by comparison, but actually the Mayans who lived only 100 years later used sea shells, jade, and other human or animal teeth for restoration. Despite the rudimentary methods, these implant procedures were actually quite successful. Skulls discovered in recent years show that these materials fused with the bone, and the bond has lasted long after the patient’s death. So, how’s a modern patient to choose? Dr. Anthony Giamberardino and his Medford, MA team are here to help you choose the restoration method that’s right for you, but first, we recommend finding out more about each treatment. Call to schedule a tooth replacement evaluation and consultation today.

Pristine Dental Implants in Medford, MA
April 14, 2015
Do you often dream of having a complete, beautiful smile? Everyone wants to have an amazing smile that can be displayed to the world, wowing family, friends, and co-workers. Unfortunately, tooth decay, oral infections, mouth injuries, and facial trauma leads to tooth loss for thousands of Americans every year. The loss of a tooth can cause a lot of pain and frustration, and it can have a negative effect on self-image, causing embarrassment. Giamberardino Dental Care, located in Medford, MA, offers a permanent solution for tooth loss in the form of dental implants.
Why Dental Implants?
Your teeth are an incredibly important asset, and the loss of a tooth can be detrimental. A missing tooth may just seem like a nuisance at first, but over time, it can lead to serious problems for your mouth. Your jawbone requires stimulation from your teeth throughout the day. Your teeth make contacts from chewing, touching each other, etc., which in turn provides stimulation for the jaw. When a tooth is missing, the stimulation for that area no longer occurs. The jawbone will begin to deteriorate, losing mass, height, and width. A dental implant, placed by Dr. Giamberardino and his caring staff, can restore function to the mouth and prevent jawbone issues.
What is the Procedure Like?
Receiving dental implants is a rather simple treatment. Initially, we will take impressions of your mouth and begin planning the procedure. We will coordinate our plans with the finest local specialists, who will surgically bond a biocompatible titanium post into your jawbone. During a healing period, your jaw will naturally grow over the post, accepting it. When the healing process is over, we will finish the rest of the restoration at our office, cementing a durable, strong replacement tooth to the post. Afterward, you will be able to walk out of our building with a complete, beautiful smile.
Receive Our Stellar Treatment Today
Don’t let a missing tooth hinder your daily routine. Allow our brilliant team to give you a beautiful, complete smile and restore your oral health with dental implants. If you need to replace a missing tooth, contact us today to schedule your appointment with our friendly, welcoming staff. We are proud to offer our services to Medford, Winchester, Somerville, Malden, Everett, and the surrounding communities.

Quickly Craft a New Smile with CEREC One Visit Crowns in Medford, MA
January 24, 2015
Have you heard about new CEREC One Visit Crowns? New CEREC (Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics) tooth restoration technology can deliver an expertly crafted natural looking dental crown in less than two hours. CEREC one visit crowns are more durable and longer lasting than traditional dental crowns restorations. The entire procedure can be completed from start to finish in just one visit, so there’s no need for temporary crowns or return appointments. If you have damaged teeth from dental injury, large cavities, or root canal therapy, make an appointment with Giamberardino Dental Care for the CEREC one visit crown you need today. Dr. Giamberardino can fully replace the natural form and function of your damaged teeth. Giamberardino Dental Care restores smiles daily throughout Medford, MA, Winchester, Somerville, Malden, Everett, and the surrounding communities.
What Are CEREC One Visit Crowns?
CEREC one visit crowns are the latest innovation in restorative dentistry. CEREC utilizes computer-assisted design and computer-assisted manufacture (CAD/CAM) systems. CEREC starts with digitally taken impressions, which then guide the design of your crown, milled by a computer to fit your tooth precisely. The CAD/CAM CEREC crowns are milled out of pure ceramic as you wait, thus eliminating the need for a second appointment or temporary crown.
How Are CEREC One Visit Crowns Placed?
In the past a dental crown took two visits to complete. At the first visit, your tooth would be shaved down and a putty impression would be taken. The impression would then be sent to a laboratory where your crown would be made. This process could take up to two weeks and you would have to wear a temporary crown in the meantime. At the second appointment, the temporary crown would be removed and the permanent crown finally positioned. CEREC one visit tooth restorations complete this entire process in one short visit. With the CEREC technology camera, computer, and milling machine, there’s no need for uncomfortable molds or temporaries. The CAD/CAM technology can automatically create your restoration, allowing Dr. Giamberardino to permanently bond your custom- fabricated crown faster than ever before.
What Are the Benefits of CEREC One Visit Crowns?
- CEREC crowns are made in one visit, saving you considerable time
- With CEREC, there is no need for a temporary crown, which eliminates a significant discomfort
- CEREC crowns are metal free and natural looking
- CEREC material and technology can also be used for fillings and veneers
- CEREC saves money over the long run because there is no extra appointment required

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.
Giamberardino Dental Care provides quality general and cosmetic dentistry from our Medford, MA dental office. We serve patients from Medford, Winchester, Somerville, Malden, Everett, and surrounding communities. Call us today to schedule your next appointment.

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.
