I am looking forward to attending the seminar tonight entitled; Stem Cells: Emerging medical and dental therapies and the dental profession. I have been interested in the potential of stem cells for years now. In fact a number of years ago Christine Chang of Channel 7 News did a segment featuring our dental office (here's the dental stem cell video).I am currently working with two different

Millions of people suffer from frequent, recurring headaches and are unable to find out the real cause. What many don’t realize is that the origin of the problem may be in their teeth. Not many people think of dental issues as the cause of headaches, but actually bruxism (grinding/clenching teeth) and TMD cause far more recurring headaches than most people know.Bruxism (Grinding/Clenching)Bruxism

I don't speak a lot about dentures. The reality is that there are a lot of them out there, and that many do not fit well. Many don't look very good either, since I see a lot of patients want to finally have the perfect white straight teeth that they never had naturally. Except...now it just looks UN-natural.As a cosmetic Dentist in Denver, I have found that there is even an art to making dentures

I see new patients almost everyday. I see people that are new to Denver, haven't been to the dentist for years, or have had a major disappointment with their old Denver dentist. I would say that 80% of these people hope to have one of those "check-up" examinations that last about 5 minutes like when you have your teeth cleaned. What they seem to want is to run in and run out, and largely get the

Recently I was finishing up some crown work for my mom. She's a great patient; she worries about if she is sitting still enough, and making my work easy enough for me. She's happy that my dental office has a fish tank-somehow every dentist should. Last week, I finished a new crown for her. As I sat her up and we were chatting at the end of her appointment, it dawned on me...A little background

What's new right now? EVERYTHING! There really is a lot happening in modern dentistry right now. Dental implant technology is exploding and becoming more and more commonplace. Many people have either had dental implants or know someone who has. We will keep seeing advancements that make it easier and easier to have dental implants (see our short dental implant video).

Halitosis can adversely impact your social or professional life, which is probably why there are hundreds of products sold today to address this problem. Halitosis is usually caused by bacteria in your mouth breaking down proteins and releasing nasty-smelling chemicals. There are also other rare causes of bad breath, including sinus infections and gastric acid reflux.Preventing Bad BreathThe most

You just never know where the roads you are on life are going to take you. As I look back over 22 years in dentistry in denver I am always amazed at the cool people I get to meet.My wife told me today, someone came up to her after her exercise class and said "Hey, I saw your picture at Wal-Mart". OK- how exactly do you respond to that? What this lady really meant was that she saw my wife's

In reading the newspaper today, I came across an article that described the demise of multiple Japanese industries. The one that caught my eye the most was about Toyota. Somehow this icon of quality and cost controls, innovation and domination just slipped off of the map. Here's my take on what went wrong: 1) Resting on your laurels. Just because you did it right and well last time doesn't mean

The word Doctor derives largely from the concept of "one who teaches." I find myself constantly trying to teach my patients about all-things-dental. In fact, I may have to quit my day job as a Denver Cosmetic dentist, and become a full-time blogger or internet writer. I am currently working on a series on "How to read and understand online reviews." You'll see some more editions before long.

I just finished breakfast with a long-term dentist friend of mine. We've had a standing annual breakfast meeting for about 15 years now. Time flies... As I write this I am sitting in a Starbuck's. Not just ANY Starbuck's, but one that used to be my old dental office. It's actually sort of creepy. Who knew then that a little ramshackle dental building would later be converted to a neighborhood

Tooth sensitivity is the result of stimuli like food or drink coming into contact with the dentin layer of the tooth. The dentin is usually protected by the hard enamel layer except at the root of the tooth. The reason it hurts is that the dentin contains channels that lead to the nerve inside the tooth, which sends a pain signal to the brain when touched.Tooth sensitivity, then, happens when the

You might know I am in the middle of writing a series about "How to use reviews to find a new Dentist".As I was wandering around the web, and searched for "denver cosmetic dentist". I wound up at Google. How exciting to see that our practice has the most reviews listed by Google! And to their credit, Google has condensed a lot of

I am always on the quest for the right present each Christmas. I find myself more and more going online to read the product reviews. It HAS helped me a lot of times. It either confirms the hunch I already had, or often times there is an insightful comment that reveals poor performance.In fact, sitting here in my kitchen looking at one of my son's Christmas toys that had fairly weak reviews.

I'm doing some very exhausting research right now. Sometimes one has to go to whatever extent necessary for the sake of growth. A business partner of mine gave me a gift of a stay at the Ritz-Carlton hotel here in Denver. So my radar is going a thousand miles an hour soaking in EVERYTHING they do.I'm already a fan of the Ritz as I have hired their firm to train my staff on customer service.So...

Oral health is closely tied to overall wellness because oral diseases affect the rest of the body. For example, gum-disease bacteria can enter the bloodstream and cause problems in other areas of the body. A healthy mouth is home to hundreds of species of bacteria, but most of them are relatively harmless. An unhealthy mouth, however, has more of the disease-causing bacteria that can spread

After practicing for over 21 years as a dentist in Denver, I have found methods and systems to create success for my patients. By success I mean that: pain goes away from problems, amazing smiles are created, problems are fixed and stay fixed, cavities are stopped (forever), and the anxiety about dental care is soothed.Everyone needs a Cosmetic Dentist because, in the end, the dental work has to

Maybe you are like me: I'm picky but not a pain in the neck. I like good service and some mental engagement from whomever is taking care of me or that whomever working with me has some vague understanding of what would make me happy. The service approach that drives me nuts is the "canned approach". Where I am forced into their "on-size-fits-none" rigidness. When they ask me what I want and

I drove by the neighborhood Toyota dealer today. Rows and rows of shiny cars and trucks. But I thought to myself, they are just another brand now.In one of the latest issues of Consumer Reports, they put in print what I had known internally for at least a few years now. They stated that Toyota is no longer the #1 brand for quality. I'm sure somewhere in Japan it is not a pretty sight.Here's my

As a cosmetic dentist in Denver, I want to give you a few of my thoughts on why it is important to replace a missing molar, and what a few of the options are. (Click to find out more about Scott Greenhalgh, DDS).I see people almost everyday that have had a situation where they have lost a tooth. Sometimes the best answer to a major dental problem is actually to remove a tooth. It shouldn't be the

Yesterday I had a chance to speak with one of my patients about their sleep apnea concerns. From basic irritations like the snoring it produces. Sometimes I get the request from their spouse "Can't you do anything about their snoring?!?. There are many other detrimental affects from sleep apnea including things like: waking suddenly in the middle of the night unable to catch your breath, poor

Time and research should be put into finding the right person to meet your dental needs.You will first need to find a dentist who specializes in cosmetic dentistry. Make sure that person is certified to practice by the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry (
