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 dentistry procedures to restore or repair one or more teeth. At Koch Aesthetic Dentistry in Birmingham, 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 Birmingham at Koch Aesthetic Dentistry. 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 with dental implants.

For more information about veneers, bonding, implants and other cosmetic denistry procedures, call Koch Aesthetic Dentistry at 205-202-8618. We are conveniently located at 2311 Highland Avenue South, Suite 323 in Birmingham. We provide advanced dentistry for patients in Vestavia Hills, Crestline, Homewood and the surrounding areas. We look forward to showing you cosmetic dentistry ‘before and after’ pictures.

Dental veneers have myriad applications in Mountain Brook and Birmingham cosmetic dentistry. With dental veneers, you can transform your smile without significant restorative dental work.

Is your tooth enamel worn and thin? Tooth-colored porcelain veneers have the translucency of healthy tooth enamel. Many Mountain Brook and Birmingham dental clients have received veneers to cover worn enamel. Some believe they look twenty years younger!

Have your teeth developed uneven edges? Tooth grinding, natural wear and other factors can roughen tooth edges. Porcelain veneers are a minimally invasive correction for uneven tooth edges. Veneers are a popular treatment for Vestavia Hills, Crestline, Mountain Brook, and Birmingham cosmetic dentistry patients.

Do you have chips or cracks in your teeth? If your teeth are otherwise healthy, veneers provide a flawless tooth surface. Are your teeth yellow or gray? Dental veneers can fix that, too. Veneers can be fabricated in any shade to perk up your smile while still blending naturally with your skin tones.

Porcelain veneers are paper-thin, tooth-shaped covers that are affixed to the front of teeth. Traditional veneers required the removal of a thin layer of tooth structure.

Veneers are strong, natural looking and one of the most affordable cosmetic dentistry procedures. Dental veneers are usually far less expensive than complete dental crowns, yet they are just as strong and beautiful.

Birmingham aesthetic dentists love dental veneers because they correct a multitude of tooth problems. At Koch Aesthetic Dentistry, we would be happy to show you what veneers can do for you. Koch Aesthetic Dentistry is located at 2311 Highland Avenue South, Suite 323 in Birmingham. We provide premium dental care for many of your friends and neighbors in the greater Mountain Brook and Birmingham area. Our phone number is 205-202-8618.

Are you ready to discover what smile satisfaction can do for your self-confidence?

Perfect smiles created at Koch Aesthetic Dentistry often require crown lengthening.

Crown lengthening surgery is a safe and effective cosmetic dentistry procedure that exposes more of the visible part of the tooth. Some clients undergo crown lengthening surgery at Koch Aesthetic Dentistry to alter their gummy smile.

A gummy smile refers to upper teeth that appear too short because excess bone and soft tissue covers part of the teeth. When a gummy smile is eliminated, our Birmingham patients can’t believe how it changes their whole face. They love their new smile which reveals pleasing, symmetrical portions of their upper teeth.

Sometimes, a client needs crown lengthening because of tooth fracture. When a tooth breaks at the gum line or a crown is fractured, crown lengthening makes tooth structure accessible for the necessary restoration.

Digital imaging and laser dentistry are some of the technological tools that help Birmingham and Mountain Brook advanced dental professionals perform crown lengthening and other cosmetic dentistry procedures.

All relationships are important. Especially your relationship with your Birmingham dentist.

Did your last Birmingham dentist cause you fear, guilt and pain? Perhaps you quit seeing your dentist because you hated going and he/she loved making you wait. Was your previous Birmingham cosmetic dentist insensitive to your concerns? Was he/she a poor communicator? Perhaps you have simply moved into the Birmingham area and need a new provider.

I am Dr. J. Paul Koch of Koch Aesthetic Dentistry in Birmingham. I understand that many patients are nervous (okay - downright terrified) about dental visits. I also realize that no client wants to be given a shameful lecture about their oral health.

Though I have years of experience and extensive training on all the latest cosmetic dentistry procedures, there are some things that can’t be learned in dental school; how to build trusting relationships with your patients and create a relaxed atmosphere in your dental practice. I understand that Birmingham dental clients can feel very vulnerable as they lie in the chair with their mouth open. My staff and I maintain a friendly environment in our pleasant office. We manage our practice carefully to minimize waiting and provide ample time for each valued patient.

Effective communication is a priority. I make sure my Birmingham dentistry patients understand their restorative and cosmetic options and answer all their questions before we develop a treatment plan.

If you are currently seeking a considerate, experienced, and sensitive Birmingham dentist, I look forward to meeting you. My phone number is 205-202-8618. You can learn more about me at http://www.kochaesthetics.com/meetdrkoch.htm

How do celebrities obtain brilliant white smiles always ready for the red carpet or a close-up? Do they avoid coffee? Not likely. Every star-watching magazine is full of pictures of famous people holding Starbucks cups. Do they avoid tobacco? Some probably do, but many actors and fashion models with dazzling white smiles are smokers.

Very few people (famous and non-famous alike) with perfect teeth were born with them. (…Sure, no one is born with teeth, but you know what I mean.) Celebrities have perfect smiles because they have undergone cosmetic dentistry.

Guess what? You can also have a smile like a supermodel or television news anchor because Dr. J. Paul Koch at Koch Aesthetic Dentistry has as much experience and training in advanced cosmetic dentistry as any Hollywood cosmetic dentist.

Dr. Koch has been providing smile makeovers for Birmingham and Hoover dental clients since 2000. Tooth whitening is the most affordable cosmetic dentistry procedure in Birmingham and Hoover. Tooth whitening quickly perks up your teeth and makes you feel like smiling all the time!

Porcelain veneers are used often in Homewood, Hoover, and Birmingham cosmetic dental offices because they correct a myriad of problems. Veneers remedy misshapen teeth, cracks and chips, and discolored teeth. Teeth that have been worn down extensively can also be repaired with veneers. Preparing a tooth for a porcelain veneer is minimally invasive. The latest veneers do not require the removal of healthy enamel. Another plus: veneers are usually less expensive than complete crowns!

Tooth whitening and veneers are just two of the many cosmetic dental procedures performed at Koch Aesthetic Dentistry. Schedule a Birmingham cosmetic dental consultation today by calling 205-202-8618. At our office, you will always receive VIP treatment, without the annoying paparazzi!

We look forward to helping you achieve a celebrity smile.

(Note that the celebrities pictured above are not affiliated with our site; they just have great smiles!)

There is nothing like bright white teeth that light up a person’s whole face when they smile and laugh. No one has to settle for dull, yellow teeth.

This is a great time for Mountain Brook men, women and teens to get a deep teeth cleaning and tooth whitening at Koch Aesthetic Dentistry in Birmingham. With a deep cleaning followed by teeth bleaching, your teeth will feel as good as they look.

If you have an important upcoming event such as a Vestavia Hills, Crestline wedding, Homewood party or formal family portrait sitting, a smile makeover will give you extra confidence as you pose for photos (even close-ups).

Hoover teeth bleaching can whiten teeth beyond their natural shade. At our Birmingham cosmetic dentistry practice, we don’t use a conventional shade chart for our Homewood whitening clients anymore. You have probably seen the porcelain tabs in graduated shades that Mountain Brook tooth whitening dentists use to determine appropriate, yet natural looking, shades for tooth restorations. We now use a shade guide with levels significantly whiter than the guides we have used in the past. Tooth whitening is not a gimmick; it is safe and incredibly effective. Mountain Brook tooth bleaching clients can maintain a white shade that equals the brightness of the ‘tooth’ models you see in dental marketing.

Hoover tooth whitening following twice-yearly cleanings is the most affordable cosmetic dentistry procedure. Tooth bleaching in Birmingham is comparable to the cost of a professional hair weaving and cut, but when you consider the transformation; there is no comparison! Flash your gorgeous, sparkling smile, and no one will even notice your hair.

Poorly aligned teeth? Think it takes forever for braces to straighten them? Think again. There are many new types of braces available in Birmingham. In some cases, teeth can be straightened in a few months and then, with braces off–a fantastic new smile.

If you are considering straightening your teeth, come into Koch Aesthetic Dentistry in Birmingham for an orthodontic consultation. We can discuss the new types of braces. Dr. J. Paul Koch, DMD, will explain the pros and cons of each type and recommend the most effective (and quickest!) system for your teeth.

The first things most adult Mountain Brook teeth-straightening clients ask about are the newer systems, sometimes called clear braces and adults braces. Invisalign and damon braces are two brand names of alternative orthodontic systems popular in Vestavia Hills, Crestline and Homewood. Many of our adult orthodontic patients have been embarrassed by their crooked teeth for many years and have developed a habit of covering their mouth when they smile. It is great to see them smiling confidently after they have completed treatment.

Younger clients usually have a different attitude about braces. They seem to consider braces more like a fashion accessory and are not afraid to show them off. Mountain Brook area teens are interested in color braces and colored rubber bands braces. During orthodontic consultations, they usually ask about the possibility of a clear retainer to maintain teeth alignment after their braces have done their job.

-The Dental Spa

At Koch Aesthetic Dentistry, we restore decayed teeth to create smiles that are both healthy and beautiful. Recent advances in both techniques and materials have made the ‘impossible’ not only possible, but affordable for everyone in Birmingham as well.

Doctor Dr. J. Paul Koch has been restoring teeth since 2000. Ongoing training is essential for staying on the cutting edge of the cosmetic dentistry industry.

Decay is the most common Birmingham dental problem and the second most common disease in the nation (number one is the common cold). If you have one or more teeth with decay, it’s time to take care of them.

Fillings, inlays, onlays and crowns are used to restore teeth for our Mountain Brook cosmetic dental patients. Even the most basic procedure - filling a cavity - has evolved. There are several types of new materials available including porcelain and composite resin. Each has specific strengths and aesthetic considerations. Birmingham patients who replace silver amalgam with tooth-colored fillings love getting the metal out of their smile.

Inlays and onlays are more extensive restorations. There are two types: direct or indirect. Direct inlays and onlays are made in your Vestavia Hills, Crestline cosmetic dental office on the spot and applied in one visit. Indirect inlays and onlays are fabricated in a Vestavia Hills, Crestline dental lab. They usually require a second visit but the results are well worth the extra trip.

When a Mountain Brook client has a tooth that cannot be restored with an inlay or an onlay, a natural-looking crown is the answer. At Koch Aesthetic Dentistry, we create crowns that blend in perfectly with the rest of your teeth. Let us show you some photos of patients who have received smile makeovers - you will not see any “Chiclet” crowns that stick out like a sore thumb. In fact, you won’t be able to tell which of our Birmingham dental clients have crowns.

Koch Aesthetic Dentistry is located at 2311 Highland Avenue, Suite 323 in Birmingham. Doctor Dr. J. Paul Koch is currently accepting new patients. Call 205-202-8618 to schedule an aesthetic dental consultation
