What options are available to restore my teeth at Port Warwick Dental Arts?
A veneer is a very thin slip of porcelain requiring minimal to no preparation of tooth structure, due to new techniques provided at Port Warwick Dental Arts. In the past, veneers required aggressive tooth reduction. Not anymore, with the quality skill provided by the master lab technicians with whom Dr. Samaha works. Veneers enhance the color, shape and overall esthetics of a tooth or teeth. Porcelain veneers can also fill in gaps between teeth, brighten discolored teeth and strengthen a tooth weakened by decay, cracks or inherent enamel defects.

Mind The Gap
Categories: Dental Implants
If you’re getting a crown on an existing tooth (not an implant), you can even skip the inconvenience of a temporary crown and proceed straight to a permanent crown, thanks to computer-aided design technology. So instead of a couple visits to the dentist over three to four weeks and the hassle of dealing with a temporary crown that can pop out or crack, you can get your new crown in as little as a one-hour visit, Samaha says.
Is Your Snoring Killing You?

Snoring is something we often make fun of in our society. Loud, gurgling noises occur all night long. But it isn’t funny to the person trying to sleep next to you. And what it’s doing to your body is not funny either. This is because it may be killing you, just slowly. The whole nighttime ordeal can be quite unsettling, even scary, for a bedmate, especially when you stop breathing!
Dental Crowns

When our teeth wear away, break off, or deteriorate due to cavities, we can place a crown to cover, protect or restore the broken or decayed teeth. Dental crowns can even be used cosmetically to cover up other implants or discolored teeth.
Suzie Shares Her Story…

Now I’ve gone straight because of Six Month Smiles and I couldn’t be happier! I had suffered all my life with overlapping teeth that were too big for my mouth. Being over sixty, I couldn’t see two years in orthodontic braces. Six months was so reasonable and it was all so easy. The gentle tooth movement started instantly and my teeth were straight in no time. That was amazing to me! Other doctors had thought I needed to have teeth removed in order to get them straight, but I didn’t. I am so happy I was a patient of Dr Samaha’s and that she was skilled in this special treatment option.

That’s right. In a recent study done among 5,500 unattached single adults aged 21 and older, ‘Teeth’ topped the list of 10 things the opposite sex judges a potential mate on. 58% of men agreed that it was important and an even higher 71% of women placed importance on good dental hygiene. In fact, this factor was deemed more important than grammar, hair, clothes or cars.
