Unlike a dental crown procedure, your Detroit dentist does not need to remove tooth structure to place the restoration. If the teeth in question have decay, come see us immediately.

Call 313-928-2323 to schedule an appointment as soon as possible.

At Szalai & Szalai DDS in Detroit, dental veneers are used alone and in combination with other cosmetic dentistry procedures to create complete smile makeovers. Because they can correct cosmetic tooth misalignment in one visit, veneers are sometimes referred to as ‘instant orthodontics’.

Do veneers look like natural teeth?
Skilled Detroit cosmetic dental lab artists create porcelain veneers with the color, reflective properties, and translucency of natural teeth: perfect natural teeth, that is. In addition, porcelain veneers can be made in any size or shape.

Are veneers at Szalai & Szalai DDS strong?
Porcelain veneers are fabricated out of extremely durable material. If you have questions about whether veneers or dental crowns are the best choice for you, talk to Drs. Szalai & Szalai. They will consider the size and condition of the tooth and its position in the mouth.

How long do veneers last?
Some Szalai & Szalai DDS smile makeover clients have veneers they received over 15 years ago. (And they still look terrific!) If properly cared for, veneers can last as long as dental crowns.

Are porcelain veneers affordable in Detroit?
The cost of cosmetic dental veneers at Szalai & Szalai DDS is competitive with other premium restorative dentistry practices in the area. We use what we believe is the top Detroit dental lab to create our client’s veneers and a significant portion of the cost of veneers goes to the lab. Porcelain veneers are often less expensive in Detroit than crowns and clear braces. For questions about the cost of porcelain veneers, call our office at 313-928-2323.

At Szalai & Szalai DDS, one of the most common complaints we hear from Dearborn general dentistry patients is problems with mouth sores.

There are many different kinds of oral lesions which can make eating and talking painful. Some are annoying yet harmless, while other sores are more serious and require medical intervention.

Though not contagious, the most common complaint is canker sores, which affect an estimated eighty percent of the Dearborn population. Canker sores can be attributed to stress, tissue irritation, or acidic foods. Drs. Szalai & Szalai can prescribe a topical dental paste to relieve pain and guard against infection. Recurring canker sores can sometimes be a symptom of a larger health problem.

Another common complaint is fever blisters or cold sores, which are contagious fluid-filled blisters. Dearborn cold sore sufferers should be aware that they can become infected. At Szalai & Szalai DDS, we advise our patients on how to treat cold sores and avoid further breakouts.

Fungal infections and oral cancer can cause sores in the mouth and throat. See your Dearborn cosmetic dentist if you experience any of the following:

• Lumps or discolored patches in the mouth lasting longer than three weeks
• Unusually large lesions
• Multiple sores

Drs. Szalai & Szalai remind patients that eating a well balanced diet, drinking plenty of water, and not smoking can all aid in oral health and hygiene.

To schedule an appointment, or ask about other oral concerns, contact Szalai & Szalai DDS today at 313-928-2323.

Hello! Welcome to our Allen Park general dentistry blog. Today’s message from Szalai & Szalai DDS concerns fluoride and Allen Park children’s dental health. We’re Drs. Greg & Joanne Szalai and we have been practicing dentistry in Allen Park since 1987.

When we examine a new Allen Park patient for the first time, we can usually tell whether the person drank fluoride-adjusted municipal water while growing up. Generally, their teeth are healthier than Allen Park people who had lower fluoride levels in their tap water.

Ideally, adequate fluoride intake combined with proper oral hygiene, good nutrition, and regular visits to the dentist keep teeth healthy and free of decay. However, fluoride also helps teeth remineralize if acids have already compromised the enamel. For decay prevention and teeth strengthening, adequate fluoride is indispensable.

If you have children and your Allen Park municipal water supply does not have the recommended level of fluoride, you may want to consider giving your kids a fluoride supplement. The fluoride will strengthen the primary teeth that have already erupted and also the adult teeth that are forming.

The American Dental Association supports water fluoridation:

‘More than 65 years ago, on January 25, 1945, Grand Rapids, Michigan became the world’s first city to adjust the level of fluoride in its water supply. Since that time, fluoridation has dramatically improved the oral health of tens of millions of Americans. Community water fluoridation is the single most effective public health measure to prevent tooth decay.’

At Szalai & Szalai DDS, we provide exceptional dental care for all members of the family including general and cosmetic dentistry. We serve Allen Park and the surrounding areas. Ask us about teeth whitening, veneers, crowns, and clear braces.

If you are interested in the health of your teeth, call Szalai & Szalai DDS at 313-928-2323 to schedule a comprehensive dental evaluation.

We have been creating spectacular smiles at our Detroit cosmetic dental practice since 1987. Each one of our Detroit area smile makeover clients values their new smile almost as much as we value their trust.

Our loyal patients, along with our dedicated dental team, have made our professional careers particularly rewarding.

Working as cosmetic dentists in Detroit is more than just a job. Likewise, a smile makeover is more than straight, white, beautiful teeth – though that’s a big deal in itself!

Our Detroit cosmetic dentistry clients report that their new smile affects many areas of their life. Some have noticed increased effectiveness in their profession. Others enjoy a richer social life because they are now able to smile, laugh, and eat without self-consciousness.

One of our Detroit area patients who had been embarrassed by his damaged teeth for years says his new youthful smile has given him greater confidence and ambition.

Hello, we’re Drs. Greg & Joanne Szalai. At Szalai & Szalai DDS, we expertly perform the most advanced cosmetic dental procedures available including teeth whitening, clear braces, dental crowns, porcelain veneers, cosmetic bonding, and dental implants. We also offer snoring and sleep apnea treatment which can improve your overall health and well-being.

Only need a cleaning? Our hygienists perform the most thorough deep cleanings for our clients whose healthy smiles need nothing else.

If you don’t currently have a dentist, we invite you to visit our Detroit cosmetic dentistry practice and discuss your dental goals. To schedule an exam, cleaning, or consultation, contact us today at 313-928-2323.

Even a small change can make a big difference in the appearance of your teeth. You might consider getting porcelain veneers for a chipped tooth or replacing a broken dental crown. Maybe you want to straighten your teeth with clear braces or replace amalgam fillings with clear ones that blend with your natural teeth. Tooth whitening is quick and easy and benefits even the most attractive smiles.

Perhaps aesthetic dentistry is not your first priority. Maybe you have a more pressing dental need such as a cavity that is bothering you or swollen gums. Don’t let these problems get worse and possibly more expensive to treat.

Call 313-928-2323 to book a consultation at Szalai & Szalai DDS. We are located at 5329 Allen Rd in Allen Park.

Drs. Greg & Joanne Szalai are two of the most sought-after Allen Park dentists and they stay at the forefront of cosmetic dentistry techniques and technology. A radiant smile is possible for anyone in the Allen Park area, regardless of issues such as tetracycline stains, periodontal disease, or missing teeth.

If you are planning to use flex account funds for Allen Park dentistry, make sure you check your employer’s guidelines for eligible cosmetic or restorative dentistry procedures.

With a smile makeover at Szalai & Szalai DDS, what will your ‘after’ photo look like?

I quote from the Science Daily article:

“The authors, led by Professor Richard Watt from University College London, analyzed data from over 11,000 adults who took part in a Scottish Health Survey. The research team analyzed data about lifestyle behaviors such as smoking, physical activity, and oral health routines.”

“Once the data was adjusted for established cardio risk factors, the researchers found that participants who reported less frequent toothbrushing had a 70 percent extra risk of heart disease compared to individuals who brushed their teeth twice a day.”

We are Drs. Greg & Joanne Szalai DDS of Szalai & Szalai DDS. The Scottish survey is one of many that confirms the link between oral health and overall health. Simply put: you aren’t healthy unless your gums and teeth are healthy.

It doesn’t matter if you are a lean Allen Park distance runner with a pulse of fifteen beats a minute and a blood pressure of 100 over 60. It doesn’t matter if you are a local vegan who has eaten a nutritionally balanced, low-fat diet for the past five years. If you have inflamed gums and tooth decay, you are at risk for problems in other areas of the body.

The phone number for Szalai & Szalai DDS is 313-928-2323. If you have concerns about your oral health, we invite you to schedule an examination today.

Perhaps your teeth and gums are healthy but you wish your smile was more attractive. We can help you there also with a cosmetic dental smile redesign. Porcelain veneers, crowns, inlays/onlays, and orthodontia are all available to solve any cosmetic problems you wish to correct.

If you have not visited an Allen Park dentist for a while, now is the time. My caring and professional team and I will help keep your smile beautiful for life.

Serious facial injuries can affect the victim’s ability to eat, breathe, and speak. Because of the essential physical processes at risk, a person who has suffered a facial injury should receive medical care as soon as possible. Injuries to the mouth are treated with general dentistry and oral and maxillofacial surgeons.

At Szalai & Szalai DDS, we strongly advocate the use of protective equipment for every type of sport, whether it is a team sport or individual activity. Call us at 313-928-2323 for mouthguard recommendations regarding your (or your child’s) specific sport.

Likewise, the Detroit workplace injury rate can be reduced with increased use of appropriate protective equipment and adherence to safety procedures. With respect to Detroit motor vehicle injuries, the following instructions bear repetition: Wear your seatbelt and don’t send or read text messages while driving!

If you have suffered a recent injury to your face, mouth or jaw, schedule a cosmetic dental consultation with Drs. Greg & Joanne Szalai of Szalai & Szalai DDS. If you are having dental problems (functional or aesthetic) due to an untreated past injury, we can also develop an effective treatment plan. We also specialize in various treatments to help patients stop snoring.

Our office is located at 5329 Allen Rd in Allen Park.

Drs. Szalai & Szalai recommend having a thorough general dentistry cleaning early in your pregnancy. Lying in a dentist’s chair can be uncomfortable during the last trimester. A professional cleaning performed by one of the skilled dental hygienists at Szalai & Szalai DDS, along with diligent brushing and flossing, helps prevent gum problems that are often triggered by hormonal changes. The American Dental Association has found a positive correlation between periodontal disease and preterm deliveries and low birth weight.

If you are currently pregnant and have sore, swollen or bleeding gums, schedule an appointment today by calling 817-200-7323. Once the baby is here, it will probably be harder for you to make time for a restorative dentistry visit.

If you receive dental treatment at Szalai & Szalai DDS during your pregnancy, be sure to inform Dr. Szalai that you are expecting. This will affect decisions about X-rays, pain relievers, and antibiotics.

Hormonal changes cause an increase in plaque production which can lead to decay. If you are eating many small meals during the day, take care to brush after eating. If you avoid sweet snacks, your teeth will be less likely to develop cavities.

Remember, your oral care, nutrition and lifestyle affect your baby. It is essential that you eat a healthy diet with a variety of foods. A poor diet can harm your baby’s tooth and bone development. Be sure to get enough calcium, iron, vitamins A, D and C, protein, and phosphorus. Your Dearborn Ob/Gyn can give you specific recommendations for your age, height, weight and medical conditions.

At Szalai & Szalai DDS, we take special care of our clients who are expecting.

Tooth sensitivity can be a signal that something is wrong. It may be caused by periodontal disease or bacteria build-up in a crack in a tooth.

Enamel erosion can be caused by a number of factors including acidic foods and drinks, teeth grinding, or cracked teeth. If your teeth are sensitive following a professional teeth whitening such as the ones we do here at Szalai & Szalai DDS, the sensitivity will probably be gone in a few weeks.

Surprisingly, one cause of gum recession for our Allen Park general dentistry patients is brushing too hard. That’s right; it is possible to brush too hard!

If you experience constant or intermittent pain in your teeth or gums, call 313-928-2323 right away to make an appointment. Drs. Greg & Joanne Szalai take tooth pain seriously.

At Szalai & Szalai DDS in Allen Park, we not only treat tooth sensitivity problems, we also perform entire smile makeovers for cosmetic dentistry patients in the area. You’ll find us at 5329 Allen Rd, Allen Park, MI 48101.
