September 20, 2014

479705143When you look at your smile in the mirror or in photographs, are you happy with what you see? For many men and women in America, smiling openly with friends and coworkers becomes something to avoid rather than enjoy. Self-consciousness regarding your smile can affect confidence and self-esteem, negatively impacting your social and professional life. With professional teeth whitening from D’Amico & Mauck, DDS in Aurora, CO, you can achieve a brilliant smile you’ll be proud to show off to the world in less time than ever before.

Advantages of Professional Teeth Whitening

Today’s over-the-counter teeth whitening products may claim to eliminate stains from your enamel, but the formulas used in these do-it-yourself whitening kits simply aren’t powerful enough to deliver professional-grade results. In order to thoroughly remove set-in stains and stubborn spots of discoloration, Drs. D’Amico and Mauckoffer a customized solution that actually enhances your enamel’s ability to absorb oxygen. Even stains caused by coffee, red wine, tobacco, and the natural process of aging are eradicated completely, revealing the flawless white smile you’ve always wanted. The best thing about teeth whitening at D’Amico & Mauck, DDS is that your brilliant results can last for decades with routine at-home touchups. Finally, you can reclaim your polished image, self-confidence, and all of the benefits of a gorgeous smile.

Vital Information about Oral Cancer Screening from D’Amico & Mauck, DDS

September 6, 2014

490822345Oral cancer is one of the most deadly forms of cancer in America, affecting an estimated 43,250 men and women every year. Because its symptoms aren’t often evident until the disease has progressed to an advanced stage, oral cancer screening is an imperative component of successful diagnosis and treatment. At D’Amico & Mauck, DDS, Dr. Nicholas D’Amico and Dr. Matt Mauck provide patients in Aurora, CO and nearby areas with a comprehensive array of general dentistry services, including oral cancer screening.

Understanding Oral Cancer and Screening

The earliest symptoms of oral cancer are often mistaken for minor problems like toothaches or even sinus infections. Because cancerous cells and pre-cancerous lesions can be incredibly difficult (if not impossible) to see with the naked eye, the American Dental Association (ADA) strongly recommends routine oral cancer screening at every periodic exam (twice yearly in most cases). Between visits, monitor the soft tissues within your mouth and call us immediately if you notice any of the following symptoms:

  • A thickening of tissue in the cheek
  • Unexplained pain in the teeth and/or jaw
  • Persistent hoarseness and/or sore throat
  • Difficulty moving the tongue or jaw
  • Red or white patches anywhere in the mouth
  • Mouth sores that do not heal after several weeks
  • Teeth that become loose
  • A change in the way dental prosthetics (like bridges and dentures) fit with the jaw
  • Numbness or tingling
  • The sensation that something is caught in the throat

While it is true that certain activities – including smoking and excessive consumption of alcohol – do increase your risk for oral cancer, thousands of patients affected by the disease do not engage in these behaviors. You may be in perfect physical health and still fall victim to this aggressive disease, which is why oral cancer screening at your general dentistry checkups is so important.
