Cosmetic Dentistry Options

Sunday, March 28th, 2010

Cosmetic Dentistry Options Have you thought about upgrading your smile? Cosmetic dentistry offers many exciting possibilities.

The quickest and least invasive procedure is light teeth whitening. The results are dramatic and teeth whitening side effects are minimal.

If your teeth are slightly crooked, but require no orthodontic work, porcelain veneers could be the answer. Porcelain teeth veneers are translucent, wafer-thin covers that are permanently attached to the front of teeth, correcting chips and stains. Prepless veneers do not require the removal of tooth structure.

If your teeth are more than slightly crooked, it’s not too late for braces. Patients of all ages are undergoing orthodontic treatment and achieving fantastic results. The newest braces are less noticeable, more comfortable and bring teeth into alignment much faster than old-school metal braces.

Has gum recession caused the metal base of an old crown to be visible? Soft tissue grafts and crown replacement can correct this problem.

Are you missing one or more teeth? One of the best tooth replacement options is a dental implant. A dental implant consists of a titanium post surgically inserted into the jaw bone to replace the root of the missing tooth. The post integrates with the bone to provide a stable foundation for the replacement tooth.

Can you envision yourself with a dental makeover?
Call Boger Dental at 763-546-7707 to discuss your cosmetic dentistry options.

Preventing Gum Disease at Boger Dental

Sunday, March 21st, 2010

Preventing Gum Disease at Boger Dental Run your tongue along the gumline behind your lower front teeth. Do you feel a ridge? This is probably tartar or dental calculus.

Even if you brush and floss regularly, plaque and tartar can gradually accumulate. If not removed, these bacteria-breeding substances cause the gums to become irritated and swollen. Eventually, the gums become detached from the tooth, creating a ‘pocket’. This creates a new space for plaque and tartar to grow. In advanced stages of periodontal disease, the toxins created by the bacteria literally rot the gum, teeth and bone.

At Boger Dental in Plymouth, we perform the most thorough dental cleanings possible. Gum disease can be reversed in its early stages.

Our goal is to help our Minneapolis dental patients prevent gum disease before any damage occurs. Cleanings include root planing and periodontal scaling. Scaling removes the plaque and calculus above and, especially, below the gumline where your toothbrush cannot reach. Planing smoothes root surfaces so it is more difficult for plaque and tartar to accumulate and grow. It also creates a healthy surface for the gums to reattach to the root if necessary.

To schedule a deep cleaning, call 763-546-7707. We are located at 2720 Annapolis Circle N., in Plymouth MN. In addition to providing comprehensive dental cleanings, we create mega-watt smiles for cosmetic dentistry clients. See http://www.BogerDental.com for more information about our state-of-the-art dental practice.

Bad Breath Is No Fun For Plymouth Residents

Bad Breath Is No Fun For Plymouth Residents

Imagine you are starting a new job in Plymouth and meeting your new boss for the first time. Confidence is key to your success. As you reach out to shake the extended hand your broad confident smile exposes rows of pearly white teeth, yet when you open your mouth to exchange greetings you worry about bad breath. Perhaps your breath is not as a pleasant as you had hoped. Bad breath is a worry and possible embarrassment for many residents of Plymouth, Minnesota, from ages 20 to 80. Regular dental checkups at Boger Dental can help alleviate your concern over bad breath. We have been addressing bad breath since 1978.

The technical term for bad breath is halitosis. Many factors can cause or contribute to halitosis. One of these factors is the food you eat. Onions and garlic are both known for having a potent affect on your breath. Simply observing the foods you eat here in Plymouth can result in a change in your breath.

In most cases, bad breath originates in your mouth. Transient bad breath can be resolved through eating or brushing, and is a temporary condition usually associated with a dry mouth. Persistent bad breath can be a serious problem effecting as much as 25 percent of our Plymouth residents. Persistent bad breath can be caused by dry mouth, and is made worse when food is not cleared away properly.

Brushing and flossing daily is a critical step in curing bad breath. Food particles can build up in your mouth and foster bacteria which can cause bad breath. This not only includes the food particles that may get stuck between your teeth, but also the food that collects around your gums or on your tongue. Brushing and flossing daily can help reduce the amount of food particles that stay in your mouth and cause bad breath. Regular visits to Boger Dental in Plymouth can also reduce or eliminate the progression of bad breath.

Other factors that can contribute to bad breath for Plymouth residents include dry mouth, tobacco use, and health concerns such as infections. Come visit Boger Dental located in Plymouth, Minnesota; we’ll provide you with information about bad breath in a professional environment. Give us a call at 763-546-7707 to set up an appointment.

Choosing A Dentist In Plymouth

Choosing A Dentist In Plymouth

The American Dental Association offers some welcome advice for choosing a dentist in Plymouth. We have already talked about how word of mouth is an important factor in how many people find a dentist. Here are some things you should look for in an Plymouth dentist:
Location is always a factor when choosing a dentist in Plymouth. If you live in the Plymouth Minnesota area, there are many options, and most Plymouth locations are not too far out of the way. While location plays an important role in convenience, many people are willing to drive a little farther for a better experience with their Plymouth dentist.
Relationship is a strong factor. Your Plymouth dentist should be approachable, and should make you feel comfortable when you are in the dentist chair. After all, your Plymouth dentist will be working very close with you to help you achieve a high level of oral hygiene; you most certainly will want to have a good, professional, comfortable relationship with your Plymouth dentist and the dental office staff.
Specialty is another important factor in choosing a dentist in Plymouth. Some dentists specialize in cosmetic dentistry. Others specialize in corrective dentistry such as braces. Depending on your need, you may select a local Plymouth dentist who can solve your immediate concern. Bare in mind, however, that it is good to have a general dentist who can maintain your dental history and work with you to through the years.
If you are looking for a dentist in the Twin Cities area, please come by and speak with us. We can address your interest in any of these critical areas, and will be happy to introduce you to Boger Dental.

We look forward to meeting you.

Here’s a video from a recent expedition to the Dominican Republic, where hundreds of children received both preventative and rehabilitative dental treatment over the eight-day period.

Afraid of the Dentist? Your Plymouth Sedation Dentist Can Help

Wednesday, February 17th, 2010

Afraid of the Dentist? Your Plymouth Sedation Dentist Can Help If you live near Plymouth and experience severe anxiety when undergoing (or even thinking about!) dental treatment, oral sedation is for you.

Conscious sedation dentistry is available in Plymouth at Boger Dental. We have been providing sedation dentistry in Plymouth for several years with excellent outcomes. Whether it is called relaxation dentistry, oral conscious sedation or anxiety-free dentistry, it is completely safe and very popular for our nervous cosmetic and restorative dental clients in the St. Paul area.

Though it may sound impossible, with oral conscious sedation, Minneapolis dentistry patients can actually relax during dental visits. In addition, healing times for oral surgery and extensive cosmetic dentistry procedures are often shorter if the patient is sedated during treatment.

Sedation dentistry is great for alleviating anxiety for our Plymouth patients, and oral conscious sedation can be effective for treating or working with the following:

  • Teeth sensitivity;
  • Fear of needles;
  • A powerful gag reflex;
  • Difficulty controlling body movement;
  • Lengthy multi-procedure visits;
  • Difficulty becoming numb with traditional injections.

If you need dental work more extensive than a filling; such as a root canal, tooth implant, crown replacement or wisdom tooth extraction; call Boger Dental at 763-546-7707. When you come to our office at 2720 Annapolis Circle N., in Plymouth MN, we can give you more information about sedation dentistry.

Sedation dentistry is only one of the services we offer at Boger Dental, where your smile is our top priority!

Let’s Talk About Your Smile

Wednesday, February 10th, 2010

Let’s Talk About Your Smile We are Drs. Stephen & Chad Boger and Dr. Joseph Madden of Boger Dental. Our office is located at 2720 Annapolis Circle N., in Plymouth, Minnesota. One of the best things about being  Minneapolis area dentists is interacting with our patients. During initial dental consultations, we listen carefully to our patient’s short and long term dental goals.

We enjoy discussing options and developing effective treatment plans tailored specifically to each person. Some of our clients desire a total smile makeover. We explain in detail the treatments available including teeth whitening, dental veneers, orthodontia, crown restoration, and dental implants.

If a client is nervous about undergoing treatment, we discuss oral conscious sedation. Sleep dentistry, sometimes called oral sedation dentistry, is a great option for anxious patients. Dental visits do not have to be painful!

After the treatment has been completed, it is very gratifying for us to see our patient’s reaction to their new smile.

We never get tired of creating dramatic smile transformations for the best clients in Minnesota!

If you have been considering a smile makeover, let’s talk about your smile. Call Boger Dental at 763-546-7707 to schedule a cosmetic dentistry consultation.
