For Chocolate Lovers Only!

Wednesday, September 19, 2007

Tulane University has developed a toothpaste that is more effective in making teeth harder and less susceptible to plaque. It is reported that this new toothpaste will prevent tooth decay more effectively than fluoride. The magic component that makes the difference...cocoa! The makers of this peppermint toothpaste have enhanced it effectiveness with the addition of cocoa powder extract. Not that this will be sufficient to resolving a chocolate fix but it is nice to know that there are other benefit to one of the passionate foods! Kenneth A. Mogell, D.M.D.

So you want whiter teeth?

Wednesday, September 05, 2007

The question is often asked of us, How can I make my teeth whiter?
There are many options available depending upon your individual goals.
Over-the-counter products such as Crest White Strips are an inexpensive option. The strips are easily applied and can make a difference in the appearance of your teeth. The biggest complaint that we hear is that they are difficult to keep in place on your teeth.
The next option is whitening with a product like Nite White from Discuss Dental. This product is only available in a dental office. Custom trays are made to fit your mouth and hold the whitening material in intimate contact with your teeth. There various different strengths of the whitening gel to help one achieve the brightest whitest result they desire.
This offers excellent control over the changes in the appearance of one's teeth. The downside is sensitivity if the gel is kept in the mouth too long or if one has recession of the gums.
Another option, the most spoke about in the media is either BriteSmile or Zoom. This is the 2 hour procedure performed in a dental office. It is the most expensive of the three options discussed and the results from individual to individual can differ greatly. A gel is placed on your teeth after the gums have been protected and a bright light is then used as an adjunct to assist with the whitening process. Again the biggest complaint we hear is sensitivity from the procedure.
Our clients should be advised that if you have crowns or bonding on your teeth, they are not capable of whitening. If it is your desire to whiter brighter teeth then your only option is to have those restorations replaced.
Briefly other options include crowns, bonding or veneers.
Your appearance and your smile are important to us. If you have any questions or would like to arrange a consultation to explore your possibilities for whiter teeth please call s at 561-394-9000 Kenneth A. Mogell, D.M.D.
