We Provide Answers For Your Dental Questions in Peabody

Our team at Contemporary Dentistry and Implantology is happy to answer all your Peabody dental questions. Visit us at 113 Lowell Street to ask your questions in person, or call 978-278-1760. In the meantime, here are answers to some of the questions we hear frequently.

  • What is a smile makeover?
  • Is cosmetic dentistry worth it?
  • What are gum disease symptoms?
  • Can dental implants be removed?
  • How much do dental implants cost?
  • Are All-on-X dental implants safe?
  • How often should I get a dental cleaning and exam?
  • What is a smile makeover?
    A:

    A smile makeover is a plan to improve your smile using the cosmetic and/or restorative services that will give you the appearance you desire. We find makeovers work best with a comprehensive treatment plan rather than just undergoing individual services. Using a plan, we can help you create a realistic time frame and budget for your makeover.

  • Is cosmetic dentistry worth it?
    A:

    Yes! You deserve to feel great about your smile, and if cosmetic dentistry can help you achieve that, it’s worth the investment. Not only can cosmetic dental treatments improve the appearance of unattractive, unhealthy teeth, but they can also lead to life-changing benefits that often come with a bright, beautiful smile. You’ll have the confidence to pursue the life you want!

  • What are gum disease symptoms?
    A:

    You may not see the signs of gum disease on your own until its advanced stages, which is why it is often referred to as a silent killer. It’s also why your routine dental exams are so important. The earlier you spot periodontal infection, the easier it is to manage and, in many cases, reverse. Common symptoms to look for include red, swollen, tender, or bleeding gums, loose teeth, and persistent bad breath.

  • Can dental implants be removed?
    A:

    Technically, dental implants can be removed, although it is unlikely you would ever need to have that done. Once your implants have been placed in your jawbone, they completely bond with it and can last for decades, if not the rest of your life. Your replacement teeth that are anchored to your implants have an average life span of five to 10 years.

  • How much do dental implants cost?
    A:

    Your exact cost for getting dental implants will depend on several factors, including the number of implants needed, their location, and the type of replacement teeth you get. We’ll be happy to work up a treatment plan and provide you with an accurate cost for your implant treatment so you can decide what’s best for your wants and needs.

  • Are All-on-X dental implants safe?
    A:

    Yes, All-on-X is a safe procedure when performed by professionals who have been trained to offer this service. This treatment is as effective as traditional implant placement options for keeping your new teeth securely in place. Like other implant procedures, this can preserve the health of your jaw, too, which is better for your long-term oral health.

  • How often should I get a dental cleaning and exam?
    A:

    We recommend getting your teeth cleaned and examined every six months. Biannual visits will keep your teeth and gums in good shape. It will also give your dentist a chance to discover any problems while they are small and easily treatable. Plus, exams give us a good opportunity to discuss your smile challenges and goals with you.

Dear Patients:

We are so very excited to announce that we are once again able to provide dental services for you, our valuable patients. Contemporary Dentistry & Implantology will reopen on May 18, 2020.

While things are certainly not “business as usual,” we wanted to let you know we are here for you in our clean, comfortable, and safe environment. Our standards are well “above and beyond” what the American Dental Association and Centers for Disease Control recommend. We love what we do and the people we do it for. We are always here for you.

This high level of service is just one of the many ways that we are supporting our community, and it is included in the excellent work that we do…we go through a comprehensive disinfection after every patient is cared for.

Dr. John Argeros, Dr. Donald Plourde and all team members here at Contemporary Dentistry & Implantology will continue to go above and beyond for our patients…it is second nature. For this and many other reasons, many of our patients have trusted their care with us for years.

We very much look forward to seeing you, your family, and your friends very soon.

Sincerely,
Dr. John Argeros, Dr. Donald Plourde
Contemporary Dentistry & Implantology
