Dentist In Carlsbad, CA Offers Dental Veneers For An Improved Smile

Dr. Gregory Staffon, Carlsbad, CA dentist, invites patients to visit his office for improved services.

2013-06-16

CARLSBAD, CA, June 16, 2013 (Press-News.org) Teeth that are badly stained, shaped or crooked may be significantly improved by the placement of a veneer on the surface of the affected teeth. Veneers are used for both aesthetic purposes and when front teeth are damaged, chipped or broken. Dr. Gregory Staffon, dentist in Carlsbad, CA, can create a bright, white smile with beautifully aligned, shapely teeth through the dental veneers procedure.

"The translucent ceramic quality of today's veneers provides a more natural look than what has been available previously. Regardless of the cause of your damaged teeth or faded smile, dental veneers may solve most or even all of your cosmetic dental issues. I invite all of my patients to visit my office for improved care and smiles today," said Dr. Gregory Staffon, Carlsbad, CA dentist.

With age and time, the thin, tough outer surface that coats a person's teeth, called the enamel, can wear and look dulled, stained and discolored. This can occur naturally with age or as a result of certain medications. However, this change in the appearance of teeth is often due to habits such as tooth grinding, poor oral hygiene, and the consumption of carbonated and sugary soft drinks. Tea, coffee and smoking can all contribute to the staining of teeth as well.

Not only do Carlsbad veneers rejuvenate a person's smile, but they can also serve a protective, functional role. Dental veneers provide a protective cover for damaged teeth in a similar manner that dental crowns can protect damaged teeth. The advantage over crowns is that veneers are wafer thin and very little tooth structure is removed or drilled away. Veneers can also help with tooth sensitivity where the enamel has worn away.

Veneers are very thin, so they may require little-to-no tooth reshaping when bonded onto the tooth. Once veneers are bonded into place, they are relatively strong and durable. It is important, though, to take proper care of veneers in Carlsbad in order to not abuse them because the thin porcelain shells can damage or break with improper care.

Dr. Gregory Staffon, Oceanside dentist, may advise patients against certain habits or diets, such as eating carrots and other solid foods that may damage the veneer. In addition, Dr. Staffon may recommend that patients wear a protective appliance while sleeping, especially if he or she grinds their teeth at night. Patients who are in need of a smile transformation are invited to visit Dr. Gregory Staffon to find out if veneers in Oceanside are an appropriate smile restoration.

Stress test and brain scans pinpoint 2 distinct forms of Gulf War illness

2013-06-15

WASHINGTON — Researchers at Georgetown University Medical Center say their new work suggests that Gulf War illness may have two distinct forms depending on which brain regions have atrophied. Their study of Gulf War veterans, published online today in PLOS ONE, may help explain why clinicians have consistently encountered veterans with different symptoms and complaints. Using brain imaging that was acquired before and after exercise tests, the researchers studied the effects of physical stress on the veterans and controls. Following exercise, subgroups were evident. In ...

Penn Researchers design variant of main painkiller receptor

2013-06-15

Opioids, such as morphine, are still the most effective class of painkillers, but they come with unwanted side effects and can also be addictive and deadly at high doses. Designing new pain-killing drugs of this type involves testing them on their corresponding receptors, but access to meaningful quantities of these receptors that can work in experimental conditions has always been a limiting factor. Now, an interdisciplinary collaboration between researchers at the University of Pennsylvania has developed a variant of the mu opioid receptor that has several advantages ...

Medications to prevent clots not reaching some patients

2013-06-15

Researchers at Johns Hopkins report that hospitalized patients do not receive more than one in 10 doses of doctor-ordered blood thinners prescribed to prevent potentially lethal or disabling blood clots, a decision they say may be fueled by misguided concern by patients and their caregivers. Calling the rate of missed doses "unacceptably high," the researchers add that hospitalized patients are at a significantly greater risk of developing venous thromboembolism, or VTE, and that preventive blood thinners can prevent it a majority of the time. "There appeared to be ...

Does including parasites upset food web theory? Yes and no, says new paper

2013-06-15

Parasites comprise a large proportion of the diversity of species in every ecosystem. Despite this, they are rarely included in analyses or models of food webs. If parasites play different roles from other predators and prey, however, their inclusion could fundamentally alter our understanding of how food webs are organized. In the journal PLOS Biology this week, Santa Fe Institute Professor Jennifer Dunne and collaborators test this assertion and show that including parasites in ecological datasets does alter the structure of food webs, but that most changes occur because ...
