Koch Aesthetic Dentistry Birmingham Alabama – Blog

When you meet someone in Birmingham who is missing a front tooth, what does that say to you? Do you wonder if they were in an accident? Do you automatically start making assumptions about their income, level of education and overall physical health?

Though it is extremely unfair, we are often judged (and misjudged) by our appearance. Even if a person is impeccably dressed and groomed, a missing front tooth detracts from the overall pleasing impression.

Here is a personal story from a woman who lost a tooth:

I lost my job and along with it my dental insurance, then a month later, one of my front teeth. It has been very hard to find work…. and I know the missing tooth has cost me several jobs.”

A missing tooth can be a big deal.

Dental implants not only restore oral health, they restore self-confidence. Dental implants are a permanent solution for missing teeth. Studies have shown that after more than 20 years, the vast majority of dental implants placed by oral and maxillofacial surgeons continue to function at peak performance. If properly cared for, dental implants can last a lifetime.

Dental implants are one of the procedures we routinely perform at Koch Aesthetic Dentistry to help our Birmingham clients regain the beautiful smile they once had. Not all cosmetic dental procedures are as extreme as teeth implants. There are many minimally-invasive remedies for unattractive smiles.

Porcelain veneers instantly provide a perfect, gleaming tooth surface for Birmingham clients with broken or discolored teeth. Teeth whitening is a quick and affordable dentistry procedure in Birmingham that achieves dramatic results without requiring the removal of any tooth structure. Call Koch Aesthetic Dentistry at 205-202-8618 for more information about smile design and restorative dentistry.

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

Hello,

My name is Dr. J. Paul Koch, and I am a Doctor in the Birmingham, Alabama community.

If you are looking for a Birmingham Dentist, I invite you to give Koch Aesthetic Dentistry a try. We are passionate about your smile, your comfort and your professional care. Give us a call at 205-202-8618, or visit us on our website at http://www.KochAesthetics.com

Hello! I’m Dr. J. Paul Koch, DMD, of Koch Aesthetic Dentistry in Birmingham.

I have been practicing general and cosmetic dentistry since 2000. 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 Birmingham dental patients.

I recognize that my clients have other choices in Mountain Brook 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. We help them maintain excellent oral health. Some cosmetic dentistry clients come to me seeking major restorative dental 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 2311 Highland Avenue, Suite 323, in Birmingham, AL. If you are looking for an experienced dentist in the Birmingham area, call 205-202-8618 to schedule a consultation.

I look forward to meeting with you.

Patients often come into our Birmingham, Alabama dental practice and complain about ‘a toothache the size of Mountain Brook’. I understand this kind of pain, and realize that when you describe it like that, it really hurts. I can help.

Tooth ache pain for anyone in Birmingham can be unbearable. At the very least, toothache pain can cause you to avoid eating certain foods, certain temperatures, and even talking. Severe toothache pain can be downright debilitating, forcing patients to go to extreme measures to alleviate the pain.

Around Birmingham, the most common causes of a tooth ache include tooth infection, decay, injury, and loss of a tooth. Tooth pain can also occur after a tooth has been extracted, or after an oral surgery involving anything from a tooth or your jawbone.

I can help you better understand the source of your tooth ache pain, and in most cases can provide a nearly immediate remedy. In severe cases, we are equipped to council you on a variety of resolutions.

Of course, the best way to avoid tooth ache pain is to visit your Birmingham dentist often, and to care properly for your teeth including the regular regimen of brushing and flossing.

If you are experiencing tooth ache pain, and just can’t stand it any more, please give me a call; I am standing by to help.
