I Should Use Black Charcoal for White Teeth? YEP!

2017 may be the year of teeth whitening. Google “DIY teeth whitening,” check out YouTube videos, or just take a walk down the oral hygiene aisle at your local pharmacy. The wide range of teeth whitening options available is astounding. From whitening toothpaste to gel and light acceleration kits for home use, there’s something for everyone. However, the bulk of the store bought and DIY teeth whitening products are minimally effective, but one of the most popular new methods – charcoal whitening – may actually work.

Have You Thought of Any Smile Goals for 2014?
December 31, 2013
A brand new year is just hours away. If you’re like most people, you might already have some goals mapped out for 2014. Maybe you want to eat better, or you want to improve your financial situation. But what about your smile? Have you considered what kind of goals you might have for it?
Thinking ahead like this can be beneficial, especially if you’re on a limited budget or you know you’re in for a busy year. Working with Dr. Banda of Cranbrook Dental Care, you’ll be able to see the upcoming year with greater clarity. Not only can you make better plans, but you can face the year with a better sense of confidence.
For many patients, the primary goal will be a more attractive smile. This can be achieved with any of our cosmetic dental services, which include:
- Porcelain Veneers
- Invisalign
- Teeth Whitening
- Teeth Whitening
- Smile Makeovers
For other patients, restorative dental care might be the primary focus. With a selection of services that includes fillings, crowns, root canals and dentures, we’re confident we can improve not just the appearance of your smile but it’s functionality as well.
Still other patients will want to make regular visits a priority. We recommend that our patients from Bloomfield Hills and beyond come to see Dr. Banda twice a year for a regular exam and dental cleaning. Seeing Dr. Banda at least twice in a 12-month period will allow him to look for common conditions, like tooth decay and gum disease. Treatment for any condition should be administered as soon as possible—a goal that regular care makes possible.
Are you ready to schedule your first 2014 appointment with Dr. Banda? Call us to set up an appointment. We serve patients from Bloomfield Hills, Troy, Clarkston, Royal Oak, Birmingham, and the entire metropolitan Detroit area.
Invisalign Gives Patients a Second Chance at a Straighter Smile
October 31, 2013
For teens and adults who want straighter teeth without having to wear conventional braces, Dr. David Banda of Cranbrook Dental Care offers Invisalign clear braces. With Invisalign, our Bloomfield patients can have the straighter, more beautiful teeth they’ve dreamed of, but without the issues that patients with regular braces can face. That’s because Invisalign uses clear aligner trays instead of metal brackets and wires.
Every patient seeking treatment with Invisalign will receive a special treatment kit with all the aligners they’ll need to achieve results. As treatment progresses, all patients have to do is wear the appropriate set of aligners for about two weeks before moving on to the next. There’s nothing to tighten, and those around you may not even notice that you’re wearing braces.
But clear aligners aren’t the only benefit of Invisalign. The trays can also be taken out for eating, brushing, flossing, and more. That means that Dr. Banda’s Invisalign patients can enjoy the same kind of diet they always have. It also makes brushing and flossing easier. What’s more, when the brackets and wires of regular braces aren’t there, patients can actually keep their teeth cleaner, benefitting their oral health now and in the future.
But Invisalign isn’t the best option for every patient. Do you have questions about Invisalign? Talk to Dr. Banda of Bloomfield, MI. During a consultation at Cranbrook Dental Care, we can assess your needs and made a personalized recommendation.
We serve patients from Bloomfield, Bloomfield Hills, Troy, Birmingham, and beyond.
Two Teeth Whitening Options for Bloomfield Hills
August 29, 2013
A whiter smile can change the way you feel about yourself and the way others perceive you. That’s why teeth whitening is among the most sought-after cosmetic dentistry services today. With the brighter smile that teeth whitening can provide, patients could see changes in their self-esteem, as well as in their social, romantic, and business relationships.
Two Effective Teeth Whitening Options
At Cranbrook Dental Care in Bloomfield Hills, Dr. Banda offers two popular teeth whitening methods. One is known as in-office teeth whitening, and it’s the faster of the two. With in-office teeth whitening, patients can achieve a dramatically whiter smile after just one appointment with our Bloomfield Hills dental team. How much whiter? In some cases as much as 6 to 10 shades.
But as effective as in-office teeth whitening is, it’s not for everyone. In particular, patients who struggle with teeth sensitivity may want to seek out an alternative. That’s why Dr. Banda also offers at-home teeth whitening. This approach takes longer—anywhere from one to two weeks—but yields results that look just as dazzling as what in-office whitening can achieve.
Are You Ready for a More Dazzling Smile?
Do you want to learn more about teeth whitening with Dr. Banda? Call Cranbrook Dental Care today to reserve an appointment with us. We’re happy to provide excellent cosmetic care to patients from Bloomfield, Bloomfield Hills, Royal Oak, Clarkston, Troy, Birmingham, and all surrounding areas.
