Talking veneers with Dr. Hudis

August 26th, 2011

At Princeton Restorative & Implant Dentistry, we know that, for many people, porcelain veneers do more than change smiles—they change lives. After all, there’s no reason to put up with gaps in your teeth or with teeth that are stained, discolored, badly shaped, chipped, or crooked. A veneer placed on top of your teeth at Princeton Restorative & Implant Dentistry can correct nature’s mistake or the results of an injury and help you have a beautiful smile.
Veneers are a highly popular solution among dental patients because of their life-like tooth appearance!
Veneers—sometimes called porcelain veneers or dental porcelain laminates—are thin, custom-made shells crafted of tooth-colored materials designed to cover the front side of your teeth. To prepare for veneers, Dr. Hudis and our team will create a unique model of your teeth, which is then sent to the dental technician to create your veneers. Before placing your new veneer, your doctor will remove a small amount of your tooth to make room for the veneer. When placed, you’ll be pleased to see that veneers look like your natural teeth and even resist staining.
For more information on veneers, or if you have any questions about your treatment with Dr. Hudis, please feel free to give us a call or ask us on Facebook!

The importance of mouth guards, from Dr. Hudis

August 18th, 2011

With fall rapidly approaching, the team at Princeton Restorative and Implant Dentistry understands the importance of being outside. Schools will soon come to session, and we know there will also be an increase in outdoor activities and team sports. This week we would like to talk about mouth guards, what they are, when to use them, the works. If you have any additional questions, give us a call at Princeton Restorative and Implant Dentistry. We’d love to hear from you!
Q: What are athletic mouth protectors?
A: Athletic mouth protectors, or mouth guards, are made of soft plastic. They are adapted to fit comfortably to the shape of the upper teeth.
Q: Why are mouth guards important?
A: Mouth guards hold top priority as sports equipment. They protect not just the teeth, but the lips, cheeks, and tongue. They help protect children from such head and neck injuries as concussions and jaw fractures. Increasingly, organized sports are requiring mouth guards to prevent injury to their athletes. Research shows that most oral injuries occur when athletes are not wearing mouth protection.
Q: When should my child wear a mouth guard?
A: Whenever he or she is in an activity with a risk of falls or of head contact with other players or equipment. This includes football, baseball, basketball, soccer, hockey, skateboarding, even gymnastics. We usually think of football and hockey as the most dangerous to the teeth, but nearly half of sports-related mouth injuries occur in basketball and baseball.

A wonderful review for Princeton Restorative and Implant Dentistry

August 5th, 2011

Dr. Hudis and our team love getting patient reviews. And lately, Princeton Restorative and Implant Dentistry, serving Princeton, NJ and surrounding communities, has been getting some pretty great patient testimonials! Today, we wanted to share a wonderful review that our office received on our Google Place Page.
"I went to Dr. Hudis for a crown after a repair fell off a front tooth that I had broken as a child. I visited Dr. Hudis after an emergency visit to another dentist who had done what I felt was a poor job fixing my tooth. After my experience, I would highly recommend Dr. Hudis to family and friends. The staff are friendly and courteous. The office is clean with modern equipment. The office opens early (7:00 AM) which was convenient for me. Finally and most importantly, Dr. Hudis was very friendly, knowledgeable, and did a great job repairing my tooth and fitting a new crown." ~David
