Multi-Procedure Dental Visits in Provo

Wednesday, June 2nd, 2010

Multi-Procedure Dental Visits in Provo If you are planning extensive cosmetic dental work, you may be wondering whether to do it all at once or one procedure at a time over an extended period. Here are some factors to consider:

Cost
In the long run, It is less expensive to do it all at once. At Hammond & Ellis Aesthetic & General Dentistry in Provo, we are able to complete several procedures in one visit. We know that complete smile transformations are a significant investment for most Orem residents. We would be happy to discuss affordable dentistry financing options. Call us at 801-657-5633 to schedule a no-pressure consultation.

Time
With the latest materials and cosmetic dental techniques, healing times are shorter than ever before. However, some procedures such as bone grafting, soft tissue grafting, root canals, and dental implants often require a short healing period.

It is easier physically and psychologically to have the fewest possible visits to your Provo dentist. You should also consider how your dental visits and necessary healing periods will impact your employment and family life. You will have less down time if you receive several procedures at once.

Aesthetic Results
While we routinely achieve great outcomes when doing a smile makeover in steps, porcelain restorations are best fabricated in the same “batch” for the most precise color matching.

Sedation Dentistry
When you come in for a smile analysis, we can discuss oral sedation dentistry. Many Provo and Orem cosmetic dental patients benefit from this safe and effective solution for pain and anxiety management. Conscious sedation is especially helpful for procedures such as multiple wisdom teeth extractions and dental implant placement.

Tooth Restoration in Provo At Hammond & Ellis Aesthetic & General Dentistry in Provo, we use a variety of techniques to restore damaged teeth. Most Orem dental clients are familiar with fillings. Traditional fillings are also called ‘direct restorations’ because they are applied to the tooth, shaped and polished in one visit.

Another type of filling is called an ‘indirect restorations’ and is fabricated in a Utah dental lab. There are two types: inlays and onlays.

When a tooth needs more extensive dental restoration, a crown is often used. At Hammond & Ellis Aesthetic & General Dentistry in Provo, we create strong, natural-looking crowns from a variety of materials.

What if the tooth is damaged beyond repair? There are a number of functional replacements for missing teeth. Dentures are not the only option.

Questions To Ask Your Provo Dentist

Friday, February 12th, 2010

Questions To Ask Your Provo Dentist Sometimes we research our Provo mechanic or Provo hairdresser more thoroughly than our Provo dental professional. Shouldn’t your dental care be far more important than the condition of your car or the style of your hair? At Hammond & Ellis Aesthetic & General Dentistry, we love to answer questions about your teeth. You should be asking your Utah dentist any question you have about the care and status of your teeth.

For instance, you may have questions about the school of dentistry and dental specialties studied. Though important, dentistry school is not the only place to gain dental experience, however. Drs. Chris Hammond & Chad Ellis has been performing complex Utah dental procedures since 1996.

You should also be asking about the dentistry specialties your Provo dentist offers such as tooth restoration, braces and lumineers. These services may not be important to you now, but it is a good idea to have an understanding of your options, and to know what your Provo dentist has to offer.

If you are contemplating smile restoration, tooth implants, or tooth whitening, evaluate Provo cosmetic dentistry options with your dentist. Look at before and after pictures, and ask your Provo dentist what procedures may be right for you.

General dentists offer a variety of Provo dental services such as tooth extractions and tooth fillings, and can treat every member of the family. At Hammond & Ellis Aesthetic & General Dentistry, we specialize in cosmetic dentistry, porcelain veneers and sedation dentistry.

You have many choices for your Provo family dentistry. We welcome questions about all aspects of our Hammond & Ellis Aesthetic & General Dentistry practice. Visit us at 3575 North 100 East, Suite 200, in Provo UT and talk to a member of our friendly and professional team.

Provo Cosmetic Dental Artistry

Saturday, January 2nd, 2010

Provo Cosmetic Dental Artistry Provo cosmetic dentistry is part science and part art.

We are Drs. Chris Hammond & Chad Ellis of Hammond & Ellis Aesthetic & General Dentistry and enjoy using our extensive dental training and specialized artistic skills to design treatment plans unique to each of our Provo cosmetic dental clients.

In order to achieve an attractive, yet natural looking result, we do much more than recommend specific procedures. We consider the shape, alignment, color and condition of the teeth. In order to create a balanced look, the facial shape and coloring is taken into account. The Orem dentistry client’s age, health condition and lifestyle all influence the plan.

At Hammond & Ellis Aesthetic & General Dentistry, there is no one size fits all treatment plan.

Our artistic abilities have been perfected over several years of creating smile transformations for our Provo and Orem cosmetic dentistry clients. We are constantly receiving the latest training in new techniques and materials.

Even fairly recent cosmetic dental procedures such as teeth whitening and porcelain veneers have advanced considerably. Dental implants are a truly remarkable solution for our Utah dental clients who have lost one or more teeth.

We would love to design a personalized smile makeover for you. When the work has been completed and you are enjoying your new look, it will only be obvious to those who see you all the time. Others will assume you have always been blessed with a naturally beautiful and healthy smile.

Correcting Severe Dental Problems in Provo

Tuesday, November 17th, 2009

Each separate restorative and cosmetic dentistry procedure performed in Provo can address a specific dental problem. For example, a Correcting Severe Dental Problems in Fremontporcelain veneer can perfect the surface of a tooth that is discolored or slightly misshapen. Dental bonding can fill a small chip in an otherwise healthy tooth.

Some Provo dental problems are more extensive and require a combination of procedures. Crown restoration combined with soft tissue grafts can restore a severely decayed tooth with the root exposed. A bone graft and dental implant can restore a missing tooth in an area where the jaw bone has receded. Orthodontia followed by tooth bleaching totally transforms a smile by straightening and whitening.

What is the difference between tooth bleaching and whitening? Whitening is the term for procedures which remove surface stains to restore the degree of natural lightness. Bleaching goes even further by lightening teeth beyond their natural shade. That’s right: you don’t have to resign yourself to yellow teeth even if they have been that way your whole life! The natural shade of your teeth, by the way, like your skin and hair color, is determined by genetics.

Some Utah smiles have been gleaming for years by regular whitening. You can maintain the whiteness of your teeth just as you maintain your fitness level. (Of course it is a lot easier to make a quick visit to your Provo dentist once a year for whitening touch-ups than sweating in a gym several times a week!)

We live in an age where severe dental problems can be permanently corrected. You don’t have to participate in a TV makeover show in Hollywood to access these premium cosmetic dental procedures. They are available right here in Provo. Drs. Chris Hammond & Chad Ellis have the same advanced training and extensive experience as the dentists who keep the smiles of famous actors and musicians camera-ready.

Schedule a consultation at Hammond & Ellis Aesthetic & General Dentistry to discover the perfect combination of procedures to achieve your ultimate smile. Our phone number is 801-657-5633.
