We’re Thankful for our Patients

(And we’re determined to show you!)

You know, it’s a great month to think about all the things we’re grateful for.   And, here’s what I came up with: 

My family

My friends

My business

AND (last but certainly not least)… My CUSTOMERS!

I may have told you this before, but without you…we don’t have a business.  YOU are the reason we have the dental practice we do.  You are the reason we are passionate about providing to you in one location Periodontal, Implant, Cosmetic and Restorative dental care.  It’s because of you that coming to work every day is a joy.  And, because of that, we are determined to:

- Make every experience an extraordinary experience

- Leave our customers smiling because we were able to exceed their expectations

- Always show you how much you mean to us by providing quality service and value

I can try all day long, but I can’t possibly tell you enough times how grateful we are for your patronage.   From our family to yours; Happy Thanksgiving.

Sincerely,

Dr. Anne A. Nicholas

What are my options when I need dental care?

Published by anicholas under Uncategorized

Both young and old require dental care from time to time.  Younger people who have lost teeth to decay or accident and older people who have lost teeth too the same or just the aging process requires restorations to stay healthy.  Others are just not happy with their teeth or the aesthetic look they inherited from there ancestors.

Whatever the reason there are wonderful choices available today, and priced for just about any budget, while delivering best value and desired results.  So, if you need dental assistance to stay healthy or just tired of looking at crooked, unsightly spacing, missing, or chipped teeth, then read on and educate yourself and pick a solution that works for your treatment plan.

Visit Anne A. Nicholas D.D.S, to find more information about the following:

For those people who desire not to have metal understructures on their crowns and bridges, the all-ceramic restorations are available and a great choice.  These restorations are designed using state-of-art CAD/CAM technology and can be place in the anterior or posterior area of your mouth.  All-ceramics will transmit the color of adjacent teeth and tooth structure, blending well, and providing an attractive looking smile.  In addition, the all-ceramic product like the IPS e.max and Zirconia boasts a fractural toughness between 360-400 mega pixel strength.

Porcelain Fused to Metal, perhaps the most traditional dental option has many benefits; precise fit, reliable strength, biocompatibility with tissue, marginal integrity, natural anatomy, and color, texture, shape and contour.

Many dentists prefer Full-Cast Restorations (gold), and recommend to patients who desire long-term durability for posterior crowns.  You have several choices if you choose this product, white high noble, noble cast 40%, and yellow high noble 60-77%.  These products are biocompatible and adapt to surrounding tissue.

Implants are popular options for people with missing teeth or teeth that need to be removed.  Implant technology has come along way in the past few years.  Zirconia Crowns attached to implant abutments and Titanium insert resemble existing teeth, thus providing a natural looking tooth while adapting to soft tissue and ensures gingival health and quality bone.

Removable crown & bridge combinations or dentures and partials can be attached to implants, holding them securely and making it hard to tell the difference from natural teeth and provide overwhelming relief to those who have struggled with ill fitting dentures.

These are just a few of the choices available to you if you require dental assistance.  Dentist like Dr. Anne A. Nicholas, of Palm Desert, CA can help you choose the products that work best for you.  In addition, Dr. Anne A. Nicholas has a great program if you are looking to get whiter teeth. Feel free to contact Dr. Nicholas at 760.340.1030 or visit his website at: http://palmdesertimplantdentist.com.
