Makeover Your Smile with Quick and Convenient Cosmetic Bonding in Toledo, OH

March 10, 2015

523877123Minor cosmetic imperfections can have a big impact on the appearance of your smile. Even the healthiest smiles can sustain chips, cracks, discoloration, and decay. If you have tiny defects that keep you from smiling confidently, you should consider the cosmetic bonding solution. Cosmetic bonding is a popular cosmetic dentistry option because it can repair teeth with little, if any, effect on the natural enamel and dentin. Cosmetically bonded teeth look and feel just like natural teeth too. If you’re ready to renew your smile, schedule a cosmetic bonding appointment with Dr. Thomas, Dr. Poole, or Dr. Weisenburger at Dental Group West today. Dental Group West is a trusted cosmetic dentistry, now proudly repairing smiles daily throughout Toledo, OH, Bowling Green, Sylvania, Oregon, Perrysburg, and the surrounding communities.

What Is Cosmetic Bonding?

Cosmetic bonding consists of special tooth colored resin, expertly applied to a damaged tooth, and then hardened with a special curing light. Bonding materials are made from high-density modern plastics like composite resin and porcelain. These materials mimic the natural color of your teeth and can be designed to perfectly match the surrounding teeth, making it almost impossible to discern that a tooth was ever damaged at all.

Can Cosmetic Bonding Fix Your Smile?

Cosmetic bonding can be used in several different ways, including:

  • Repair of decayed teeth
  • Repair of chipped or cracked teeth
  • Improve the appearance of discolored teeth
  • Close spaces between teeth
  • Elongate shortened teeth
  • Improve the appearance of misshapen teeth
  • Protect tooth roots exposed by receding gums

Toledo Cosmetic Bonding Appointments

Cosmetic bonding is one of the easiest and least expensive of all cosmetic dentistry procedures. Unlike porcelain veneers and dental crowns, cosmetic bonding can be completed in just one visit without any anesthesia required. Get your smile fixed fast; schedule the cosmetic bonding appointment you need with Dr. Thomas, Dr. Poole, or Dr. Weisenburger at Dental Group West today. Dental Group West is a leading cosmetic dentistry, now proudly renewing smiles daily throughout Toledo, OH, Bowling Green, Sylvania, Oregon, Perrysburg, and the neighboring areas.

Effective Holiday Teeth Whitening from Dental Group West

December 10, 2014

118462997Would you like to impress your family and friends this holiday season with a dazzling new smile? If you want a teeth whitening treatment that works effectively the first time, and won’t irritate your sensitive teeth and gums, you should make an appointment with Dr. Thomas, Dr. Poole, or Dr. Weisenburger at Dental Group West today. Their take-home teeth whitening trays are easy to use and can whiten your teeth by several shades before your next holiday gathering. Dental Group West proudly serves patients throughout Toledo, OH, Bowling Green, Sylvania, Oregon, Perrysburg, and the surrounding communities.

Holiday Teeth Whitening Options: Which Is Best?

  • Teeth Whitening ToothpastesTeeth whitening toothpastes can’t deliver on their teeth whitening promise. These toothpastes don’t contain the bleaching agents necessary to whiten your enamel. They can only polish away the shallow surface stains you may acquire during the day. If you do choose to use whitening toothpaste, it’s best to do so as a way to maintain the whitening results of a more effective treatment.
  • Over-the-Counter Teeth Whitening Products– These products can come in many varieties including whitening strips, gels, rinses, or whitening trays. However, it can take many weeks of daily use for these treatments to have the same whitening effects of professional whitening products. Additionally, these products contain harsh chemicals that may irritate your teeth and gums.
  • Professional Take-Home Teeth Whitening– Dental Group West offers a quick and easy professional teeth whitening solution with their take-home whitening trays. These customized trays can be worn at home at your leisure, and will effectively whiten your teeth without causing gum discomfort or irritation.

Holiday Teeth Whitening Appointments in Toledo, OH

In some cases, deep staining and severe discoloration may need to be treated with dental veneers or dental bonding. Only an experienced cosmetic dentist can make that determination. To avoid the frustration of using a teeth whitening treatment that doesn’t work, make an appointment with Dr. Thomas, Dr. Poole, or Dr. Weisenburger at Dental Group West today. Dental Group West proudly restores smiles throughout Toledo, OH, Bowling Green, Sylvania, Oregon, Perrysburg, and nearby areas.

Choosing Between Dental Implants and Dental Bridges

October 10, 2014

122421420A missing tooth can cause you to miss out on enjoying your life. It can affect your willingness to laugh and smile or eat the foods you love. To replace a missing tooth permanently, you have two basic choices, either a dental bridge or a dental implant. It’s important to get all of the facts before you make such a big decision as permanently replacing a missing tooth. A missing tooth should be replaced to protect your other teeth from moving, and to preserve your bone and jaw structures.The dentists at Dental Group West want to help you restore your smile in the least painful manner possible. Contact their Toledo office today to set up a Sedation Dentistry appointment to replace your missing tooth and restore your smile.

What are Dental Bridges?

A dental bridge is a frame with two attached dental crowns and a replacement tooth (pontic) in the middle. The crowns are fitted over the adjacent teeth of the missing tooth. To fit the crowns, the adjacent teeth must be shaved down and the pontic is positioned in the gap over the gums. Besides adversely affecting the adjacent teeth, dental bridges do not replace the missing tooth root which could lead to misalignment among the surrounding teeth and in the jaw bone.

What are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are small titanium rods that can be surgically inserted into the jaw to replace the root of the missing tooth. Once the rod is placed, a synthetic but realistic looking prosthetic tooth is attached. During the healing process the jawbone will grow around the implant, cementing it in place. The implant can completely replace the natural tooth in both form and function. Dental implants are more expensive than dental crowns, but are the more natural looking and feeling alternative.

Dental Group West Restorative Implants and Bridges in Toledo, Ohio

Whichever method of tooth replacement you choose, it’s important to go to a dentist that can not only perform the dental work needed, but employs a caring and comfortable approach. The dentists at Dental Group West can help you restore your smile using Sedation Dentistry techniques, which can eliminate the pain and anxiety of restorative procedures. Dr. Thomas, Dr. Poole and Dr. Weisenburger proudly serve patients throughout Toledo, OH, Bowling Green, Sylvania, Oregon, Perrysburg and the surrounding communities.

One of the wonderful aspects of porcelain veneers is that they are very multitalented. They are able to cover up many flaws you smile, such as misalignments, gaps, stains, chips, and cracks. Another wonderful thing about porcelain veneers is that you are able to have a new smile in a relatively short amount of time, cutting out significant waiting time! A wonderful cosmetic treatment for many reasons, the results for porcelain veneers are unmatched!

The first step to getting your porcelain veneers is a consultation with one of our doctors. They will be able to evaluate your smile in its current state, and determine whether or not porcelain veneers are right for you. You will also have that time to address any questions or concerns about the procedure, as we want you to be comfortable and well-informed throughout the entire process. If you are a candidate for porcelain veneers, we will make impressions of your smile and send them to a dental lab. The lab will make your veneers, and will be made with your smile goals and facial aesthetic in mind. Your natural tooth is prepared by removing a small bit of enamel, making sure there is space for your new smile. When your veneers are ready, they are applied and made permanent with dental resin cement. At the end, you are left with a dazzling smile! If you would like a new smile using porcelain veneers, contact our Toledo, OH dental office today!
