Do You Love Your Smile?

July 28, 2010
Posted by Dr. Joseph Weber — @ 10:57 am under Cosmetic Dentistry

Lawrenceville Cosmetic Dentistry The people who are most happy with their smiles have healthy, straight teeth that sparkle when they laugh. If nature didn’t bless you with attractive teeth, you are not alone. Most perfect smiles you come across in Athens, Cumming, and Gainesville, GA were not always that way. They are the result of cosmetic dentistry performed by an experienced Gainesville cosmetic dentist.

At Weber Family Dental in Gainesville, Dr. Joe Weber DMD provides the state-of-the-art procedures that deliver dazzling, flawless teeth for our cosmetic dentistry clients. We treat patients from 3 to 93. You are never too young or too old to improve your smile; but it will definitely make you feel younger!

Two common smile-killers are yellow enamel and chipped teeth.

Discolored Teeth

Few Gainesville people have pearly white smiles that stay that way forever. Even with consistent brushing, flossing and regular dental cleanings, our teeth darken as we age. Fortunately, the most affordable Gainesville cosmetic dentistry procedure is tooth whitening. Picture yourself with a celebrity-caliber smile. It is possible with safe and affordable teeth whitening at Weber Family Dental.

Damaged Teeth

Our teeth work hard for us day after day, year after year. Sometimes they get chipped or cracked in the process. If you would like to fix your tooth flaws, schedule a consultation by calling Weber Family Dental at 678.928.9320. We use porcelain veneers every day to remedy tooth trauma. Cosmetic bonding has been used with fabulous results for many years and bonding is usually a fraction of the price of a crown.

Ask Dr. Weber which of our Gainesville cosmetic dentistry procedures can be completed in one appointment. How about a same-day smile makeover?

If you have never been eager to show your teeth when you smile or laugh, now is the time to change that. Call Weber Family Dental today at 678.928.9320 to schedule a smile design consultation.

Dental Crowns at Weber Family Dental in Gainesville

June 17, 2010
Posted by Dr. Joseph Weber — @ 6:00 pm under Cosmetic Dentistry, Dental Crowns, Restorative Dentistry

Dental Crowns at Weber Family Dental in Gainesville Dental crowns have been used in dentistry for over 2000 years. There is evidence that the Etruscans experimented with crowns on teeth using ivory and bone as early as 700 B.C. By 200 A.D., they began using gold crowns to construct artificial teeth. Ancient Egyptians fashioned tooth replacements out of seashells and then hammered them into their gums (Oral sedation, anyone?).

Porcelain crowns were first used in the 1800s. With the refining of metal casting methods in the 1900s, crown dentistry advanced significantly.

Today, crowns are strong, comfortable and are made to match your surrounding teeth.

Dental crowns (also called caps) cover the entire visible portion of the tooth and are cemented in place. Crowns are used to strengthen teeth that have been worn down or weakened by decay or injury. Crowns are also used to restore the original shape of a tooth or solely to improve the appearance of a tooth.

The most common types of crowns are:

  • All-porcelain (ceramic)
  • Porcelain-fused-to-metal
  • Gold

The material used is determined by several factors. If you suspect you need a crown, want to replace an old crown, or want to learn about other cosmetic dentistry procedures, call Dentist Dr. Joe Weber at 678.928.9320. Weber Family Dental is located at 1146 South Enota Drive, Gainesville, GA in Gainesville. We have been serving clients in the Lawrenceville area since 1991. We can recommend the best tooth restoration or cosmetic dentistry option for you.

Tooth Whitening and Your Dentist

June 2, 2010
Posted by Dr. Joseph Weber — @ 12:40 pm under Cosmetic Dentistry, Teeth Whitening

Tooth whitening has become one of the most popular dental procedures in Georgia. It seems that everyone in Gainesville is whitening their teeth to help their smiles look younger and brighter. Many consumers in the Lawrenceville area are turning to over-the-counter solutions to whiten their teeth, however their can be dangers and pitfalls to this approach.

Here is some basic advice on tooth whitening from Weber Family Dental:

First, we encourage you to visit our office in Gainesville before starting a tooth whitening system. It is a good idea to have your teeth checked and analyzed before starting a tooth whitening program. Tooth whitening is not for everyone, and depends on your dental history.

Dr. Joseph Weber at Weber Family Dental can help you determine whether your teeth can be whitened safely and effectively. We can also recommend tooth whitening solutions that will work best for you. Weber Family Dental is a good place to start for this important decision.

There are many pitfalls to be aware of when whitening your teeth. Over-the-counter teeth whitening products available in the Gainesville area will provide varying degrees of effectiveness on your teeth. If used improperly, tooth whitening solutions can cause problems including tooth sensitivity, over whitening, damage to your tooth enamel, and irregular coloration. Whitening too much can even have a reverse effect, making your teeth look gray.

Most tooth whitening product manufacturers recommend that you visit your local Gainesville dentist when things go wrong with your over-the-counter tooth whitening solution. We recommend you begin with the warm and friendly professionals at Weber Family Dental to get started with a tooth whitening solution that will give you the best tooth whitening results.

Our office is located at 1146 South Enota Drive, Gainesville, Georgia 30501. Please give us a call or stop by to make an appointment to discuss your tooth whitening plans. We are eager to help you make the best decision about your teeth whitening.

Our warm and friendly is available to discuss tooth whitening solutions, explain tooth whitening options, and check your teeth to make sure you will get the tooth whitening results you want.

I look forward to seeing your beautiful bright smile.

Common Myths about Gainesville Family Cosmetic Dentistry

May 17, 2010
Posted by Dr. Joseph Weber — @ 7:30 pm under Cosmetic Dentistry, Dental Implants, Porcelain Veneers, Teeth Whitening

Common Myths about Gainesville Family Cosmetic Dentistry Myth #1: Cosmetic Dentistry is Never Necessary for a Healthy Smile

Many so-called Lawrenceville cosmetic dental procedures are not solely cosmetic. Cumming dental procedures such as tooth replacement are smile-enhancing and, more importantly, prevent many potential problems such as tooth movement, bone loss and difficulty chewing and speaking.

Myth #2: A Norcross Dental Bridge is the Only Way to Replace a Missing Tooth

Dental bridges are an Gainesville dental cosmetic procedure that have been used for many years with success. However, dental implants are often a better choice for replacing one or more missing teeth. Dental implants have many advantages for Athens dental patients. They feel like natural teeth, they are stronger, and they are easier to clean than dental bridges. Georgia tooth implants can also be used to anchor dentures or partial dentures.

Myth #3: At-Home Kits are as Effective for Norcross Tooth Whitening Than a Professional Dental Solution

At Weber Family Dental, we offer our Lawrenceville dental patients teeth whitening treatments that provide a much greater level of whiteness than at-home kits. At-home kits may remove surface stains, but they do not provide optimum results and can often lead to uneven coloring.

Myth #4: Dental Bonding is the Best Way to Fix a Chipped Tooth.

Dental bonding can restore the shape of a tooth, but may not be the best long-term solution. If you have a damaged tooth, you may be a good candidate for porcelain veneers. Call us at 678.928.9320 to set up an appointment so we can determine the best solution for you.

Myth #5: Cumming Braces are the Only Way to Straighten Teeth

Braces are often part of a transforming dental makeover for our Lawrenceville teens and adults alike. However, if your teeth are only slightly crooked, lumineers can reshape your teeth and dramatically improve your smile. And the best thing about veneers? They offer instant results!

Gainesville Cosmetic Dentistry at Weber Family Dental

May 10, 2010
Posted by Dr. Joseph Weber — @ 12:13 pm under Cosmetic Dentistry, Dental Implants, Porcelain Veneers

Cosmetic Denistry in Lawrenceville Do you have a damaged tooth that causes you embarrassment? Even if all your other teeth are nicely shaped and pearly white, guess what other people notice? Yep, the ugly duckling. You have probably experienced that yourself when you have looked at a smile that contains one discolored tooth. No matter how hard you try, the unsightly one is impossible to ignore.

A beautiful smile is an important component of your overall appearance. Unattractive teeth draw the eye away from other pleasing features such as thick shiny hair, gorgeous eyes or a peaches and cream complexion.

Fortunately, there are several cosmetic dental procedures to restore or repair one or more teeth. At Weber Family Dental in Gainesville, we can complete most of them in one short visit. Think about it; you could achieve a stunning smile in less than an afternoon!

Veneers, Bonding and Cosmetic Implant Dentistry
Dental bonding is an affordable cosmetic dentistry procedure available in Gainesville at Weber Family Dental. We use dental bonding in a variety of applications. In addition to repairing damage, dental bonding can close gaps between teeth.

Porcelain veneers are another minimally invasive cosmetic fix. Like cosmetic dental bonding, veneers correct chips, cracks and improve tooth shape.

What if your problem is not an unattractive tooth but a missing tooth? Don’t despair, a beautiful smile is still possible in Lawrenceville with dental implants.

For more information about veneers, bonding, implants and other cosmetic denistry procedures, call Weber Family Dental at 678.928.9320. We are conveniently located at 1146 South Enota Drive, Gainesville, GA. We provide advanced dentistry for patients in Cumming, Norcross and the surrounding areas. We look forward to showing you cosmetic dentistry ‘before after’ pictures.

Find A Dentist

May 3, 2010
Posted by Dr. Joseph Weber — @ 10:18 am under Cosmetic Dentistry, Dental Health, Family Dentist, General Dentistry

There are a lot of places to look for a dentist, but its not always easy to find the right dentist in Gainesville.

It used to be that in Gainesville you could find a dentist just by walking down to the corner of the street. Like many small towns, there would be a dentist on the corner of ‘north and main’, just up from the fire house, and across from the bakery.

Today, finding a dentist around Gainesville can take a little more time, and a little more effort. Our local community is spread out a little more, and there is more than one option for finding a local dentist.

Let’s look at a few of the ways to find a local dentist in Gainesville:

The old timers among us still reach for the yellow pages when we look to find a dentist. The yellow pages have been a standard for dentists since the beginning, and are a quick way to get a good list of local Gainesville dentists.

Studies are showing an ever increasing number of Gainesville consumers are turning to their Internet connection to find a dentist. To find a dentist online can mean more than just a name and a phone number; many dentists, like us, have additional information on their website that will help you gain a better understanding of their practice and the services they provide.

Many people find a dentist in the Gainesville community through printed mailers and flyers that come to your door.  Dentists spend a lot of money on these types of flyers, which can often carry a discount opportunity or special promotion.

The most popular method used to find a local dentist? …Word of mouth. Studies have shown that people in Gainesville are more willing to listen to a family member or close friend when it comes to finding a local dentist.

We understand this last point, and make it our job to keep our patients happy, healthy, informed and comfortable during their visit to the dentist. We know if you leave happy, your friends and family in the Gainesville area will hear about us, too.

If you are looking for a dentist, please give us a call. You can reach us at 678.928.9320.

If you know a friend who is trying to find a dentist in the Gainesville area, please pass our name along.

We look forward to seeing you both!

Posted by Dr. Joseph Weber — @ 10:13 am under Cosmetic Dentistry, Dental Health, Family Dentist, General Dentistry

Looking For A Dentist In GainesvilleLooking For A Dentist In Gainesville is sometimes a simple matter of word of mouth. The most common way for people to find a dentist is to ask a friend or neighbor. ‘Who is your dentist?’ is a common question.

Professional Teeth Whitening

April 14, 2010
Posted by Dr. Joseph Weber — @ 10:03 am under Cosmetic Dentistry, Smile Makeover, Teeth Whitening

Professional Teeth Whitening at Weber Family Dental A brilliant smile leaves a lasting impression. Professional whitening of teeth can dramatically improve your overall appearance and give you a boost in self-confidence.

Our teeth often turn yellow or gray as we age. The things we eat and drink, such as colored sodas, coffee and red wine contribute to the staining. Most of us are aware that smoking is not only bad for your lungs; it is an enemy to beautiful teeth. If you are considering having your teeth whitened, you must first decide which method to use. At Weber Family Dental, we enjoy discussing treatment options with our clients. To schedule a consultation to talk about teeth whitening or any other dental procedure, call 678.928.9320.

At-home whitening treatments usually consist of trays filled with whitening solution. It takes 7-14 days to achieve 3-6 shades lighter. Brush-on teeth gels and whitening strips take up to 30 days to achieve barely noticeable results. Whitening toothpaste may lighten superficial stains but often provides no change in appearance of teeth.

Professional teeth whitening procedures performed by a dental professional achieve dramatic results that last far longer than other treatments.

All of the whitening methods may cause tooth pain or sensitivity, but this usually goes away in a few days. If you have crowns, porcelain veneers or bonding, it is important to talk to your dentist before choosing a whitening method.

We do smile makeovers!

Oral Conscious Sedation

April 7, 2010
Posted by Dr. Joseph Weber — @ 9:55 am under Cosmetic Dentistry, Family Dentist, General Dentistry, Sedation Dentistry

Oral Conscious Sedation Some people experience severe anxiety when undergoing dental treatment. With oral conscious sedation, it is possible to relax during dental procedures instead of being tense and fearful. Oral sedation dentistry, relaxation dentistry, conscious sedation and anxiety-free dentistry are all terms used to describe this type of treatment. In addition to alleviating anxiety, oral conscious sedation can help patients with a variety of conditions.

You may want to consider oral conscious sedation if you have any of the following issues:

  • Strong gag reflex
  • Fear of needles
  • Sensitive teeth
  • Fear and anxiety associated with dental treatment
  • Difficulty getting numb
  • A history of negative dental experiences
  • Trouble controlling body movement due to Parkinson’s disease, Cerebral Palsy or related condition
  • Need extensive dental treatment requiring lengthy dental visits

If you have avoided dental treatment due to any of these factors, give us a call at 678.928.9320. We can give you more information about sedation options and help you determine which one is right for you. At Weber Family Dental we do all we can to make your visit as comfortable as possible. We look forward to discussing your oral health and dental goals.

Serving Gainesville dental patients since 1991.
