			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="Common Myths about Lafayette Family Cosmetic Dentistry" href="http://www.BoulderCountySmiles.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://image.listpipe.com/lp_myths.jpg" alt="Common Myths about Lafayette Family Cosmetic Dentistry" align="right" /></a> <strong>Myth #1: Cosmetic Dentistry is Never Necessary for a Healthy Smile</strong></p>
<p>Many so-called Boulder <a title="Boulder cosmetic dental procedures" href="http://www.bouldercountysmiles.com/site.cfm/Cosmetic-Dentistry-57" target="_blank">cosmetic dental procedures</a> are not solely cosmetic. Longmont dental procedures such as tooth replacement are smile-enhancing and, more importantly, prevent many potential problems such as tooth movement, bone loss and difficulty chewing and speaking.</p>
<p><strong>Myth #2: A Louisville Dental Bridge is the Only Way to Replace a Missing Tooth</strong></p>
<p>Dental bridges are a Lafayette dental cosmetic procedure that have been used for many years with success. However, dental implants are often a better choice for replacing one or more missing teeth. <a title="Dental implants" href="http://www.bouldercountysmiles.com/site.cfm/Dental-Implants-47" target="_blank">Dental implants</a> have many advantages for Broomfield dental patients. They feel like natural teeth, they are stronger, and they are easier to clean than dental bridges. Colorado tooth implants can also be used to anchor dentures or partial dentures.</p>
<p><strong>Myth #3: At-Home Kits are as Effective for Louisville Tooth Whitening Than a Professional Dental Solution</strong></p>
<p>At Gordon West DDS, Cosmetic &amp; General Dentistry, we offer our Boulder dental patients <a title="Boulder teeth whitening" href="http://www.bouldercountysmiles.com/site.cfm/Teeth-Whitening-50" target="_blank">teeth whitening</a> treatments that provide a much greater level of whiteness than at-home kits. At-home kits may remove surface stains, but they do not provide optimum results and can often lead to uneven coloring.</p>
<p><strong>Myth #4: Dental Bonding is the Best Way to Fix a Chipped Tooth.</strong></p>
<p>Dental bonding can restore the shape of a tooth, but may not be the best long-term solution. If you have a damaged tooth, you may be a good candidate for <a title="porcelain veneers" href="http://www.bouldercountysmiles.com/site.cfm/Porcelain-Veneers-41" target="_blank">porcelain veneers</a>. Call us at 303-665-5335 to set up an appointment so we can determine the best solution for you.</p>
<p><strong>Myth #5: Longmont Braces are the Only Way to Straighten Teeth</strong></p>
<p>Braces are often part of a transforming dental makeover for our Boulder teens and adults alike. However, if your teeth are only slightly crooked, <a title="Invisalign invisible braces" href="http://www.bouldercountysmiles.com/site.cfm/Cosmetic-Dentistry-57" target="_blank">Invisalign invisible braces </a>can dramatically improve your smile.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="Questions To Ask Your Lafayette Dentist" href="http://www.BoulderCountySmiles.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://image.listpipe.com/lp_questiono.jpg" alt="Questions To Ask Your Lafayette Dentist" align="right" /></a> Sometimes we research our Lafayette mechanic or Longmont hairdresser more thoroughly than our Lafayette dental professional. Shouldn’t your dental care be far more important than the condition of your car or the style of your hair? At <a title="Lafayette general dentistry" href="http://www.BoulderCountySmiles.com" target="_blank">Gordon West DDS, Cosmetic &amp; General Dentistry</a>, we love to answer questions about your teeth. You should be asking your Colorado dentist any question you have about the care and status of your teeth.</p>
<p>For instance, you may have questions about the school of dentistry he or she attended and the dental specialties studied. Though important, dentistry school is not the only place to gain dental experience. Dr. Gordon West has been performing complex dental procedures in Colorado since 1998.</p>
<p>You should also be asking about the dentistry specialties your Longmont dentist offers such as <a title="Longmont cosmetic dentistry" href="http://www.bouldercountysmiles.com/site.cfm/Cosmetic-Dentistry-57" target="_blank">tooth restoration</a> and <a title="Longmont Invisalign invisible braces" href="http://www.bouldercountysmiles.com/site.cfm/Cosmetic-Dentistry-57" target="_blank">Invisalign invisible braces</a>. These services may not be important to you now, but it is a good idea to have an understanding of your options, and to know what your Longmont dentist has to offer.</p>
<p>If you are contemplating smile restoration, <a title="Longmont tooth implants" href="http://www.bouldercountysmiles.com/site.cfm/Dental-Implants-47" target="_blank">tooth implants</a>, or <a title="Longmon tooth whitening" href="http://www.bouldercountysmiles.com/site.cfm/Teeth-Whitening-50" target="_blank">tooth whitening</a>, evaluate <a title="Longmont cosmetic dentistry" href="http://www.bouldercountysmiles.com/site.cfm/Cosmetic-Dentistry-57" target="_blank">cosmetic dentistry </a>options with your Longmont dentist. Look at before and after pictures, and ask your Longmont dentist what procedures may be right for you.</p>
<p>General dentists in Boulder offer a variety of dental services such as tooth extractions and tooth fillings, and can treat every member of the family. At Gordon West DDS, Cosmetic &amp; General Dentistry, we specialize in cosmetic dentistry, <a title="Boulder porcelain veneers" href="http://www.bouldercountysmiles.com/site.cfm/Porcelain-Veneers-41" target="_blank">porcelain veneers </a>and <a title="Boulder dental implants" href="http://www.bouldercountysmiles.com/site.cfm/Dental-Implants-47" target="_blank">dental implants</a>.</p>
<p>You have many choices for your Lafayette family dentistry. We welcome questions about all aspects of our <a title="Lafayette family dentistry" href="http://www.BoulderCountySmiles.com" target="_blank">Gordon West DDS, Cosmetic &amp; General Dentistry</a> practice.
