Did you know that most people don’t even know if they have bad breath? Do you know for sure?
Dentists and doctors call bad breath halitosis. In most cases, the offensive smell comes from bacterial waste products. That’s right! In your mouth live over 600 types of bacteria, some good and some bad. Some of the bacteria produce sulfur compounds that are, to be frank, very stinky!
If you need a crown, your tooth has sustained damage that can’t be repaired with a filling. You might have a deep cavity, crack, or chip. Your tooth could be worn down, which will, over time, negatively alter your bite. Or, you may need a crown following a root canal. Depending upon the amount of tooth structure that needs restoration, Dr. Villani may recommend a full crown or a ¾ crown, which we call inlays or onlays.
We have all heard about the dreaded root canal. It’s true: root canals have a bad reputation. I am Dr. Thomas Villani and I am here to tell you that root canals aren’t as bad as they sound. My associate at Brighton Family Dental Group, Dr. Richard Kondrat, and I happy to answer questions to put your mind at rest before and during your root canal procedure.
For many people, having a mouth full of metal is the way they remember their teenage years. Even if you wore braces when you were younger, it is likely that your teeth have shifted. No matter what your dental history is, if you look in the mirror and see crooked, widely spaced, or overlapping teeth, I, Dr. Thomas Villani, have a solution you will love.
For most adults, especially those in the professional world, wearing metal braces simply isn’t practical. Here at Brighton Family Dental Group, we are proud to offer you another option. Invisalign is a clear, removable aligner that allows you to get the result of traditional braces while maintaining a mature, natural appearance.
Here at Brighton Family Dental Group, we are dedicated to keeping your mouth healthy, but this is actually more important than you may have thought. A number of recent studies have proven that a direct correlation between oral health and overall health exists. My team and I want to educate you and your family on how good oral health paves the way for a long, healthy life.
We have been welcoming and treating our patients with skilled dental care, reasonable prices, and a comfortable atmosphere since 1994. Recently, however, we decided to extend our reach by starting a blog! We hope that this tool offers our patients, both current and potential, in-depth information and a closer look into our practice.
Our mission here at Brighton Family Dental Group is to provide excellent care to the families of Brighton and surrounding communities. I, Dr. Thomas M. Villani, have put together a top-notch team of dental professionals to ensure your dental health and personal satisfaction during every interaction you have with us.
