From everyone at D’Amico & Mauck, we want to wish all our patients from Aurora and beyond a very Happy Thanksgiving.

During this time of the year, we have the chance to sit down with friends and family in a way we rarely do at other times, when our schedules are busier. Thanksgiving and the holidays to follow create wonderful opportunities for seeing loved ones and for enjoying wonderful holiday foods.

Maintaining a healthy smile is important, but so is enjoying an extra slice of pumpkin pie with a son, a daughter, a grandchild—that’s a moment you wouldn’t want to trade for anything.

So, indulge a little this Thanksgiving. Forget for a moment about the negatives of sweets and sugary treats and spend some time sharing the foods you love with the people you love.

This is a special time of the year, and from all of us at our Aurora dental office, we hope you treasure it as much as we do.

Now that we’re into October, fall is in full swing. That means cooler weather, fall colors, and shorter days. It also means the holidays are almost here. In fact, the first major one of the holiday season, Halloween, is just weeks away. And along with the holiday season come certain things you won’t want to miss: holiday parties and holiday treats.

But when you have questions about how your smile is doing, it can be harder to enjoy either of these to the fullest.  You might feel self-conscious instead, worried that you have gum disease or a cavity that needs to be treated. Or you might just be self-conscious about how your smile looks.

During a regular checkup and cleaning with D’Amico & Mauck, DDS your doctor can thoroughly assess your oral health to help you put your anxieties to rest. Not only can Dr. Nicholas D’Amico or Dr. Matt Mauck tell you if your smile needs help, they can also recommend a cosmetic dentistry treatment to help you create a more dazzling smile. All so you can face the upcoming holiday season with a greater sense of confidence.

What’s more, regular exams and cleanings can help you support your overall health. In recent medical studies, gum disease has been connected with a wide range of health problems including heart disease, diabetes, Alzheimer’s, and even pregnancy complications.

Has it been more than six months since your last checkup and cleaning at D’Amico & Mauck, DDS in Aurora? If you live in Denver, Centennial, Englewood, Parker or beyond, call us today to reserve your next appointment. A healthy smile is key to enjoying a healthy life.

How Can Dental Implants Help Me Improve My Smile?

Are you missing one or more teeth? Traditional restorative dentistry options like crowns, bridges, and dentures can help you fill in those gaps. What they can’t do, though, is replace your missing tooth’s underlying structure. For that you need a revolutionary service known as dental implants.

Unlike traditional options, dental implants are structured like a natural tooth with a replacement tooth on top and a replacement root—often made of titanium—underneath. With this combination of crown and root, patients of D’Amico & Mauck, DDS in Aurora can enjoy a smile that looks and feels completely natural.

If you’re interested in restoring your smile with dental implants, the first step is finding out if you’re a candidate. During a consultation appointment with Dr. Nicholas D’Amico or Dr. Matt Mauck, we can determine if dental implants are the right service for you. If they are, you can expect your procedure to proceed in two phases.

In the first phase, a trusted oral surgeon with place the titanium screws that make up your prosthetic roots. Because titanium is a biocompatible metal, the bone tissue in your jaw will fuse with these screws over time, creating a solid, natural foundation for your new smile.

As that happens, D’Amico & Mauck, DDS will design and create your custom-made restoration. Your titanium roots can support a wide variety of restorative options, from single crowns to bridges and partial or full dentures, making them one of the most versatile dental services available.

When your titanium root and your jaw have had time to bond, the second phase of your dental implant restoration will involve the attachment of your new tooth (or teeth) to your implant. With your new teeth in place, your procedure will be complete and you can return to your regular schedule with a fully restored.

Are you ready to learn more about dental implants? Call D’Amico & Mauck, DDS in Aurora to schedule your consultation appointment. Our office serves patients from the greater Denver area, including Centennial, Englewood, and Parker.
