Gainesville Tooth Whitening For Whiter Smile

September 2, 2010
Posted by Dr. Joseph Weber — @ 10:35 am under Teeth Whitening

Gainesville Tooth Whitening For Whiter Smiles When it comes to cosmetic dentistry, tooth whitening is one of the easiest and most rewarding procedures. There are many tooth whitening options for those of us in the Gainesville and Lawrenceville areas. How do you find a good tooth whitening procedure?

Visiting your local Gainesville dentist is a good start!

Whitening your teeth is an advanced dental procedure that you won’t want to get wrong on the first try.  I recommend a visit to Weber Family Dental to visit with me and talk about it. I’m Dr. Joe Weber.  As a Gainesville Dentist I am not only experienced with tooth whitening procedures, but care about your teeth and your smile. I can recommend tooth whitening procedures based on your age, dental hygiene, and personal goals.

Most importantly, I can help you assess the condition of your teeth, let you know what to expect during the process, and help you care for your teeth once they are whitened.

Many of our Gainesville patients ask about tooth whitening. In fact it is one of our most popular dental procedures. There are many tooth whitening options.  They range from the kind you will perform at home to professional tooth whitening procedures we can do right here in our Gainesville dental office. The one best for you can depend on many factors starting with the color of your teeth and how white you want your teeth to be after the procedure.

Consulting with your Gainesville dentist before you begin a tooth whitening procedure has several advantages. Among the advantages are professional care, experienced advice, and reliable recommendations for which tooth whitening procedure will be best for you.

If you are contemplating a tooth whitening procedure, and you live in the Gainesville or Lawrenceville areas, come in and visit with me for just a few minutes. We’ll discuss your goals, the options that are available to you, and the results you can expect. You will be much happier with your results with the advantage of professional advice.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Weber Family Dental in Gainesville Hello! I’m Dr. Joe Weber, DMD, of Weber Family Dental in Gainesville GA.

I have been practicing general and cosmetic dentistry since 1991. Dentistry is a challenging and fascinating profession; dentists must have diagnostic skills, dexterity, extensive scientific knowledge, and good visual memory. Dentistry also requires artistic ability. In addition to the technical aspects of dentistry, I really enjoy interacting with my Gainesville dental patients.

I recognize that my clients have other choices in Lawrenceville, Norcross, and Gainesville GA area dental practices, and I work continually to earn their trust and surpass their expectations.

Each dentistry client is unique. Many of my patients come in twice-yearly for an exam and cleaning to prevent gum disease and other oral health issues. We help them maintain excellent oral health. Some cosmetic dentistry clients come to me seeking major restorative dentistry work. It is extremely gratifying to complete a smile makeover and see the client’s reaction when they see the result for the first time.

When I have a pre-treatment consultation with a new dentistry client, it is very informative for both of us. The patient learns the specifics about the possible procedures and I learn about the clients’ goals, concerns and expectations. Then I work with the client to develop a dental treatment plan that fits the patient’s needs, desired outcome and budget.

My dental practice is located at 1146 South Enota Drive, Gainesville, GA in Gainesville. If you are looking for an experienced dentist in the Lawrenceville or Gainesville area, call 678.928.9320 to schedule a consultation.

I look forward to meeting with you.

Cavity Fighting Chewing Gum For Our Gainesville Patients?

August 18, 2010
Posted by Dr. Joseph Weber — @ 12:51 pm under Dental Health

Lawrenceville Oral Dentistry I’m Dr. Joe Weber DMD of Weber Family Dental in Gainesville. My Lawrenceville and Gainesville, GA dentistry clients often ask me if chewing xylitol gum is an effective substitute for tooth brushing and regular Gainesville dental exams.

Before I answer that question, let me tell you a little bit about xylitol:

Xylitol is a natural sweetener that was first discovered in birch tree bark but is also found in many fruits and vegetables. Unlike most other sweeteners (natural or synthetic), xylitol is actually good for your teeth. Numerous clinical studies have demonstrated that xylitol prevents the growth of the bacteria that initiates decay. It also reduces plaque and strengthens tooth enamel.

Xylitol has other benefits, as well. Because it is low on the glycemic index, many of my diabetic patients enjoy it as a healthy alternative to sugar. If my cosmetic dentistry patients complain about frequent dry mouth, I recommend Xylitol gum or mints to stimulate saliva production without promoting tooth decay.

Now, back to the golden question. Is xylitol gum just as effective as brushing your teeth and seeing your Lawrenceville or Gainesville family dentist regularly? Absolutely not! If you cannot brush your teeth after a meal, chewing xylitol gum for five or ten minutes is probably a good idea. However, you should still brush your teeth thoroughly (with a soft brush) after meals and get twice-yearly exams and oral dentistry deep cleanings at your Gainesville dentistry clinic. This will help prevent gum disease and other oral health problems.

At Weber Family Dental, our goal is to keep your smile healthy and beautiful for life by preventing dental problems before they start. If you postpone dental visits until you feel pain, you risk losing teeth and most certainly will require more extensive treatment than if the problem was caught earlier. Is it time for a dental exam? Call us at 678.928.9320 to book an appointment. Our warm and friendly is waiting to take care of all your dental needs.

Overbites And Underbites in Gainesville

August 11, 2010
Posted by Dr. Joseph Weber — @ 12:10 pm under TMJ

Overbites And Underbites When the upper part of the jaw and the lower part of the jaw are not the same size, bite problems like TMD (temporomandibular joint disorder) can occur. When the lower jaw is smaller than the upper jaw, it is called an overbite. When the reverse is true, it is called an underbite. Another related alignment disorder is called a crossbite. Crossbites occur when lower teeth are in the wrong position. They may be incorrectly positioned sideways, forward or backward.

Malocclusion (literally ‘bad bite’) is the term used for all types of bite problems including overbites, underbites and crossbites. Jaw alignment disorders can cause a range of problems and often prohibit proper chewing and/or swallowing. Teeth can shift around in the mouth, causing even more discomfort or difficulty. Gum disease and tooth decay are also harder to prevent because proper oral hygiene can be difficult with a malocclusion. TMJ disorder (TMD) can develop over time. Distorted facial shape and unattractive teeth are often the most noticeable and troubling issues for those affected.

Fortunately, there are a variety of effective treatments for bite problems. If you suspect your child has a bite misalignment, it is especially important to have them examined as early as possible. By starting early, you can make sure they avoid years of pain and self-consciousness.

Call Weber Family Dental at 678.928.9320. Dentist Dr. Joe Weber, DMD is experienced in diagnosing bite disorders in patients of all ages. We can create a successful treatment plan for you, including TMJ therapy. We also perform restorative dentistry, dental crowns and porcelain veneers for Lawrenceville and Gainesville area dental clients.

Posted by Dr. Joseph Weber — @ 12:16 pm under Gum Disease

Periodontal disease (gum disease) in Georgia is more common than you might think, and can be curedPeriodontal Disease in California

with varying degrees of treatment depending on the severity.

What is periodontal disease? Periodontal disease, more commonly called ‘gum disease‘, is an inflammation or infection of the gums. Gum disease can be very painful in some extreme conditions, and can limit your ability to eat normally. In some cases, periodontal disease can affect your smile, and can create cosmetic concerns.

If left untreated, gum disease can cause irreversible damage. When caught early and treated, gum disease can be little more than an inconvenience. However the best policy is to practice good dental hygiene to keep periodontal disease at bay.

One of the best ways to avoid gum disease is to get a regular dental check up at your local Gainesville, GA general dentist.

Give us a call to schedule your next dental checkup; we look forward to seeing you.

Gainesville GA Porcelain Veneers

July 14, 2010
Posted by Dr. Joseph Weber — @ 12:03 pm under Porcelain Veneers

Gainesville Prepless Veneers One of the breakthroughs in Gainesville cosmetic dentistry is porcelain veneers. Thousands of Cumming, Norcross, and Gainesville smile restoration clients who have received traditional veneers are happy with the results.

Gainesville porcelain veneers are a less-invasive procedure for transforming  smiles than dental crowns. Porcelain veneers are incredibly thin shells which adhere to the face of teeth and require minimal removal of tooth enamel. Most Gainesville porcelain veneers are about the thickness of a few pieces of paper. Because the color is built into the veneers (instead of being applied after fabrication), they look like your natural teeth–only better!

Our experienced Georgia ceramists are skilled artists. They create each custom Gainesville veneer with the optimum shape, color and thickness for your new smile.

If you are embarrassed by misaligned, discolored or broken teeth, porcelain veneers may be a Georgia smile restoration solution that you can feel good about.

Call Weber Family Dental to learn more about Gainesville porcelain veneers. It is the first step toward your dazzling new smile!

Gainesville Endodontics

July 7, 2010
Posted by Dr. Joseph Weber — @ 12:19 pm under Restorative Dentistry

Gainesville Endodontics Have you ever heard the phrase ‘I’d rather have a root canal’ to describe something painful or unpleasant? At Weber Family Dental, we perform root canal (endodontics) therapy routinely for our Gainesville dentistry patients and many report minimal discomfort. Gainesville root canal procedures have advanced significantly in recent years. For many Georgia root canal patients, the procedure is no worse than getting a filling from your Weber Family Dental dental professional.

At Weber Family Dental, our goal is to help our Cumming, Norcross, and Gainesville root canal patients avoid the necessity of Georgia endodontic treatment by providing skilled dental care. However, if root canal therapy is necessary to preserve a tooth for one of our greater Gainesville area root canal patients, we provide the most advanced Gainesville endodontic treatment in Georgia

How do you know if you need a Georgia root canal? See your Weber Family Dental dental professional immediately if you experience tenderness or pain, hot or cold sensitivity, tooth discoloration, tooth injury, gum swelling, gum pain, or lymph node tenderness or drainage. However, for some Gainesville endodontic patients, there are no symptoms. That is why it is crucial to visit your local Gainesville endodontic dentist regularly for a thorough Gainesville dental examination.

Call Weber Family Dental, at 678.928.9320 to schedule an appointment.

Preventing Tooth Decay in Georgia

June 30, 2010
Posted by Dr. Joseph Weber — @ 1:36 pm under Dental Health

Preventing Tooth Decay in Georgia In Gainesville, tooth decay is one of the most common childhood problems, yet tooth decay also affect adults. Weber Family Dental serves people from 3 to 93 years old to help fight tooth decay.

Bacteria are a common cause of tooth decay. Bacteria live in your mouth and combine with plaque and acids to break down the enamel coating on your teeth. The breakdown of your tooth enamel can often result in the development of small holes in your teeth which are known as cavities. The breaking down of your tooth enamel in is known as tooth decay, and it is a serious dental problem for children and adults in Georgia.

Georgia tooth decay is typically a result of diet and oral hygiene choices. When sticky foods are consumed and allowed to sit on the teeth, or foods full of sugars and starches are consumed frequently throughout the day, tooth decay can result. Foods to avoid include soda and sugary chewing gum; these foods tend to stay around for a while and create an environment where bacteria thrive. To help prevent tooth decay, simply limit sugary and starchy foods between meals. Also, brushing at least twice a day with a fluoride toothpaste, flossing at least once a day, and visiting your local Gainesville dentist in Georgia for regular check ups and cleanings will help prevent tooth decay.

Hello, my name is Dr. Joe Weber, and I am a Dentist. I work at Weber Family Dental located at 1146 South Enota Drive, Gainesville, GA. Tooth decay is a preventable dental problem, and I can help. Visit me at http://www.weberfamilydental.com; I will be happy to meet you, and to give you an idea of the many ways we can help you prevent tooth decay and avoid a more costly or even painful ailment.

We specialize in cosmetic and family dentistry and would be happy to discuss with you any health concerns related to your teeth. Give us a call at 678.928.9320.
