Pain-free Treatment
Last week, a patient came in to our office complaining about a toothache. She was in the process of switching dentists, and Dr. Muslin had been highly recommended by another patient. She told me that she was dreading the visit since she’s had plenty dental treatment completed over the years and never enjoyed any of it. It turns out she was right in calling in to visit a dentist because the filling that had come out, her roots exposed and infected. Her tooth needed a root canal. An hour and a half later, the root canal was completed, a post and build-up was placed, along with the preparation for the porcelain crown. The patient told me that, this was the best root canal she has ever had! She was completely shocked that the treatment could be completed so quickly and painlessly.

Question:
Zoom! Teeth Whitening seems so convenient, cost effective and accessible. It seems that every dentist offers Zoom! Teeth whitening. Why should I come to a professional such as yourself for custom teeth whitening? (Dr. Muslin – maybe focus on “every dentist can do it” – i.e. a mass production product where no skill is required.

Question:
My dentist told me that most porcelain veneers are made by the same labs and that talk of different quality is just sales talk. Is this true? Are there labs that are better than other labs?

Question:
Dr. Muslin, my family dentist convinced me that porcelain veneers were the best solution to cover my dark teeth. At first it looked OK but now my porcelain veneers look grey and dull. Do I need to have them whitened or bleached? How can this be fixed?

Question:
Dr. Sam, our family dentist talked me into dental bonding to minimize a gap between my front teeth. Now, the gap is still awkward and if you look closely you can see the layer of bonding material on my tooth. I hate it! Can dental bonding be removed?

Question:
Dr. Sam, I have gone to three different dentists to get advice on the best porcelain veneers. Each dentist has a different story. The one suggested Lumineers, the other suggested Composite Veneers, and the other suggested Empress Veneers. I never knew there were so many types! As this is expensive and painful, I would desperately like to make the right choice. Can you guide me?

Question:
Dr. Sam, how can Face Lift Dentistry improve my appearance?
Answer:
Face Lift Dentistry ® is the only procedure that can change the shape of your face permanently without facial surgery. The basic concept is that the teeth are directly responsible for the length of your face and facial support. If you have longer teeth or if they are angled correctly, you will have more lip support. Fuller lips and a smoother facial appearance is possible by only treating your teeth and the treatment is non-invasive.

Question:
Dr. Sam, what is the perfect color for my teeth?
Answer:
The perfect color for your teeth is subject to your opinion. You may love your teeth to be too white because it looks great to you and but maybe not to your friends. The Hollywood crowd seems to like teeth that are so white; their smile overwhelms their face.
