Veneers Create Stunning Smiles in Mountain Brook

Tuesday, August 17th, 2010

Veneers Create Stunning Smiles in Mountain BrookDental 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.

Tooth Decay in Birmingham?

Tuesday, June 15th, 2010

Mountain Brook Teeth Whitening 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
