New Generation of All-Ceramic Esthetic Crowns

April 15, 2015

Dental CrownWhen it comes to your smile, it is one of your most important features. Despite your best efforts to care for your teeth, you might find yourself in a situation where you need to have work done. Ceramic crowns can repair teeth and maintain a beautiful smile.

We Offer Ceramic Crowns
At EMA Dental, we offer only the latest dental technology. Our treatments have been tried, tested, and loved by our patients. The best way to get a natural looking crown is to choose ceramic. There are several benefits to having all-ceramic crowns.
Ceramic crowns can:

  • Fix deformed or damaged teeth
  • Make it possible to chew normally
  • Replace the absence of teeth
  • Improve oral health, oral convenience, and self-esteem
  • Give your smile a natural and attractive look

A lot of dental clinics have started using and offering all-ceramic crowns because they have a much more natural look and last longer than the alternatives.

Why Choose Ceramic Crowns
Here is a closer look at what you can expect with ceramic crowns:

  • You will still eat and chew normally
  • You will still brush and floss normally
  • Your mouth will look and feel normal

At EMA Dental, we put a lot of time and effort into making sure your all-ceramic crowns give you back the perfect smile you lost.

How it Works
Our office will send the mold of your tooth out to a professional lab in order to have the crown made. This is the easiest way to make sure it functions like a natural tooth. We will make sure the crown matches the color and shade your current teeth.

The crown is the perfect fix for damaged teeth and will improve your overall appearance. The light reflects naturally off these crowns, and no metal will ever show through. These are perfect for a natural smile and no one has to know they are there.

The procedure is a simple one that takes very little time. There is a little pain associated with having the crown installed, and your gums may be sore for a while. In total, you will need two trips to see us in order to get your crowns installed properly.

You cannot go wrong with this new generation of dental crowns, just give us a call today.

Whitening- Refresh Spa at EMA Dental

March 15, 2015

Teeth WhiteningMany adults in Massachusetts are considering whitening their teeth. At home kits make it look so easy, but do they really deliver? At EMA Dental, we provide you with teeth whitening procedures that are more effective and safer than whitening at home.

The Benefits of a Professional Whitening
Whitening kits seem easy, but they contain harsh chemicals that do not always work the first time. They are not nearly as effective as a professional whitening by a dentist.

Who Should Have Their Teeth Whitened?
You might be wondering whether or not you are a good candidate for teeth whitening. This is not an ideal procedure for everyone. Some patients who are not ideal for teeth whitening include patients who have

  • Implants or crowns
  • Fillings
  • Poor oral hygiene
  • Sensitive teeth

Even when having your teeth whitened by a professional, you need to proceed with caution. If your teeth are sensitive or they have had restoration work done, you need to talk to your dentist to determine if teeth whitening is right for you.

Our Refreshing Whitening Spa
At EMA Dental, we have taken teeth whitening to a new level with our refreshing teeth whitening spa. Our goal is for our patients to feel comfortable and relaxed while they undergo the procedure.

The whole point of a spa is for you to walk out feeling refreshed, happy, healthy, and beautiful. We thought to ourselves – why can’t you do that at your dental office? Our whitening spa requires no drilling, no fillings, and just a relaxed whitening experience.

We want you to smile from the moment you walk into our clinic until the moment you walk out.

Are you unhappy with your stained and discolored teeth? We want to help. Give us a call and we would be happy to set up a consultation to see whether our teeth whitening spa is right for you.

All you need to do is pick up the phone. Just remember, those teeth whitening kits you are using at home are nothing compared to the whitening technology we have inside our clinic. Set up an appointment to get your pearly white teeth back today.

Everything You Need to Know about Mini Implants

January 31, 2015

Mini ImplantAt our dental clinic, we often hear patients express concern about dental implants. Luckily, traditional dental implants are not the only option.

Miniature Dental Implants – An Affordable Alternative
While they are not ideal for every patient, miniature dental implants are an affordable alternative to traditional implants. At EMA Dental, we have offered them to our patients for over 10 years.

Mini dental implants range between 1.8mm and 3mm. This can be compared to traditional implants which are typically 3.75mm in size. Mini implants can be installed in just one day.

There are many different benefits to choosing miniature dental implants over traditional implants:

  • They provide security for removable dentures
  • They take far less time to install
  • They take less time to heal
  • They are way more affordable (about half the price of traditional implants)

Types of Mini Implants
There are several different types of dental implants, including:

  • Partial mini implants
  • Full mini implants
  • Supportive mini implants

Partial mini implants are ideal for replacing a small number of missing teeth. You will only need to visit our clinic one time to receive partial mini implants.

Full mini implants are ideal for an individual who needs an entire set of new teeth. Unfortunately, full mini implants will require more than one trip to our clinic.

Supportive mini implants are used with crowns, bridges, or dentures. They are intended to be a support for you tooth replacement procedure to make sure it is a success.

What Can You Expect From Us
Schedule a consultation with one of our dentists at EMA Dental so we can discuss your individual needs. This will give us a chance to make sure miniature implants are a good fit for you.

Smoking, heavy drinking and poor dental hygiene could mean you are a poor candidate for dental implants. Implants are a replacement for your natural teeth, and need to be treated as such. Bad habits are just going to ruin them like they ruin teeth.

When you come in for a consultation, we can go over whether or not these implants are a good fit for you.

Restoring Your Smile in Three Easy Ways

January 15, 2015

Dental RestorationEMA Dental is a dental clinic filled with a highly skilled and professional staff. Each of our doctors have had years of training and experience and are ready to help each of our patients individually.

Regular dentist visits are recommended to maintain the health of the teeth and gums. We offer full-service general dentistry including cleanings and regular check ups. Additionally, we provide crown services, bridgework services, and fillings.

Dental Crown Services

At EMA, we work to make each crown feel and look completely natural. Crowns are needed to recover the normal size and form of a damaged tooth. You should expect long-lasting results from crowns. They fix damaged teeth, replace missing teeth, and allow patients to chew and eat normally. Quality work is necessary to ensure the crown lasts.

Bridgework Services

Bridgework can also help fill in the space where teeth are missing. Missing teeth can lead the jaw bone to shrink and the teeth around it to move. Bridgework stops this from happening. It also helps the mouth and face return to a normal appearance. Overall, bridgework improves the health of the mouth and improves issues of speaking and eating.

Teeth Fillings

When there is a small cavity in the tooth, a filling is the best option. Our fillings are natural looking and meant to match the color the teeth. This will preserve the look and feel of the teeth. We can even replace old metal fillings with this new material. These fillings don’t contain mercury and help strengthen the tooth. After receiving fillings, patients report decreased sensitivity of the tooth and find it easier to chew.

At EMA dental, your dentist will help you decide which procedure is right for you. We are dedicated to providing the best possible dental care and restoration procedures. Many of our patients recommend our work. If you are looking for a general dentist for you and your family, give us a call today! We look forward to scheduling your first appointment.

Are Root Canals Painful?

December 14, 2014

An infection in a tooth can cause a great deal of pain. The pain can be constant, and eating or drinking can be torture. In such cases, you canhappy woman with healthy smile
either opt to have the tooth removed or have a root canal.

Bacteria cause tooth infections. When we eat, tiny particles of food become lodged on and between our teeth. If you don’t brush regularly and effectively these food particles attract bacteria. That bacteria causes decay on your teeth, and decay will eventually allow bacteria to infect the pulp inside the teeth. An abscess and severe pain will come next.

Extraction is one of the options that are available for treating an infected tooth. However, if you do that, you will either have a missing tooth or will need to get an implant to replace it. Alternatively, a root canal will relieve the pain, and let you keep your tooth.

At EMA Dental, we perform root canals every day. And, contrary to popular belief, they are relatively painless. All you will need is local anesthetic. Pain during recovery is minimal, too. Root canals are an outpatient procedure.

The pain caused by an infected or abscessed tooth can be extreme. Your best option is a root canal to stop the pain and save the tooth.
