Although human teeth are tough—tooth enamel is the hardest substance in the body—they are not impervious to damage. For example, tiny bacteria can lead to tooth decay. And then of course there is the possibility of injury, which can crack or break a tooth. Whatever the reason for damage, tooth repair is critical to save your smile and your oral health. In some cases, the best way to repair a tooth is to enclose it in a dental crown. At Juno Beach Smiles, our dentists use dental crowns (also known as caps) to preserve a damaged tooth, to protect it from further damage and to restore a tooth’s functionality.

Dental Crowns North Palm Beach Residents Prefer
August 14, 2015
Imagine taking a bite of your favorite crunchy or chewy food. Everything seems fine, but then, a sharp pain shoots through your mouth. You find yourself chewing on a piece of your own tooth. Dental cracking and breaking occurs relatively frequently, and you’d be surprised how many patients choose not to restore these problems right away. However, over time these cracked and broken teeth become susceptible to tooth decay and root canal infections as bacteria is able to directly affect the inner layers of your tooth. In the past, restoring a broken tooth was considered too timely and ineffective, so patients would often have the tooth pulled. At Juno Beach Smiles, we practice conservative dentistry which means we always attempt to preserve natural tooth structure, but we are also a cosmetic dentist which means we want your smile to look as good as it feels after restoration. That’s why for severely cracked and broken teeth or teeth that have undergone root canal therapy, we recommend porcelain or metal supported porcelain dental crowns. If you have a tooth in need of repair, call Juno Beach Smiles to find out more about how dental crowns can give you back your beautiful smile.

Porcelain Veneers in Jupiter, FL
July 9, 2015
Consider your smile. Are you happy to share your smile with the people you see every day, or are you someone who habitually raises a hand to your mouth in order to cover your smile? If your smile is in hiding, then maybe you should consider permanently hiding your smile. With porcelain veneers, Dr. Duane Keuning and Dr. Greg Riley at Juno Beach Smiles help people from surrounding areas like Jupiter, FL, conceal their old smiles and reveal new and beautiful smiles instead.
Porcelain veneers—also called dental veneers or just veneers—are perfect for restoring a smile that is tainted by a number of cosmetic imperfections, including:
- Teeth that are chipped
- Slightly broken or fractured teeth
- Teeth that are misshaped
- Moderately crooked teeth
- Teeth that have gaps in between them
Instead of taking the time and dealing with the expense of several cosmetic and restorative procedures that would be necessary to refurbish a smile with these flaws, you can have a fantastic smile with porcelain veneers in just two appointment.
What are Veneers?
In Jupiter, dental veneers are extremely thin layers of dental porcelain that are cemented to the front side of your teeth to create a perfect smile. Because they are made of porcelain, which is a translucent ceramic material, veneers reflect light similarly to natural enamel. Furthermore, they can be sized, shaped and colored to conform to your mouth and your special facial features.
What is the Process for Veneers in Jupiter?
First, Dr. Keuning or Dr. Riley will need to make sure there are no oral health concerns that need to be addressed before beginning the process of applying porcelain veneers. Then, once we’re certain that you’re a good candidate, you’ll come in for a consultation. At this meeting, you’ll tell us about the kind of smile you want and we’ll take x-rays, impressions and photos of your teeth. Don’t forget to mention the characteristics that you want your smile to have—you can even bring pictures of celebrities who have smiles you like.
Then, one of the Juno Beach Smiles dentists will prepare your teeth for veneers by removing a minimal amount of enamel. Doing so allows for a stronger bond between the veneers and your teeth and also ensures they will lie flush with your other teeth. Our trustworthy cosmetic dental lab will then fabricate your permanent veneers. In the meantime, we’ll place temporary veneers to safeguard your teeth and help you get used to the feel of veneers.
When your permanent veneers arrive, you’ll return to Juno Beach Smiles where we will fit and cement them to the teeth in your smile zone. At the end of the appointment, you’ll have a smile that you’ll never want to hide again!

How Chewing a Piece of Gum Can Help Your Smile
March 14, 2014
If you spend most of your day behind your desk or out and about, you may not be able to brush after every meal. However, there is still something you can do to help your smile. A very simple act can help you clean your teeth and neutralize the acid in your mouth—chewing sugarless gum.
Chewing a piece of gum after meals can help your smile in two ways. First, chewing gum can help you clean leftover pieces of food from between your teeth. When these pieces are left where they are, they can promote the growth of bacteria, which can turn into plaque and calculus. Bacteria, plaque, and calculus can lead to common oral health problems like gum disease and tooth decay. Gum disease will help you remove what’s leftover and help protect teeth.
Chewing a piece of gum will also neutralize the acid in your mouth. Foods that are high in sugar or starch can cause an acidic reaction in the mouth, promoting the growth of bacteria. Gum that’s sweetened with xylitol can offer even more help.
Of course, chewing a piece of gum should not replace regular brushing and flossing or checkups with Dr. Keuning and Dr. Riley at Juno Beach Restorative & Aesthetic Dentistry. Contact us to schedule an appointment. We offer great care to patients from Juno Beach, North Palm Beach, Palm Beach Gardens, Tequesta, Jupiter and beyond.
