Your smile is often the first thing people notice about you. Do you find yourself hiding your teeth when you laugh, or smiling with your mouth closed? Porcelain veneers can give you a million-dollar smile and ignite your confidence like never before. Over the years, Dr. Sternberg has achieved many brilliant transformations through the placement of porcelain veneers.

Veneers are a versatile cosmetic option that can completely transform a smile. Through careful planning and precise design, Dr. Sternberg crafts porcelain veneers that complement the size, shape, and texture of surrounding teeth.

In addition to being versatile, veneers look completely natural. Due to the translucent quality of porcelain, veneers look indistinguishable from real dental tissue. Veneers are also color-matched to your surrounding teeth for a seamless finish.

Dr. Sternberg was recommended to me by my oral surgeon to repair a chipped front tooth. He did not fail to live up to the wonderful things that were said about him! My teeth look back to normal and I couldnt be more pleased with the all around experience. Highly recommended!

All I can say is WOW !! Ive been struggling with insecurities of my gap tooth for years now. Dr.Dennis did magic on my teeth. Ive never been so happy and felt so good about my smile. Thank you for giving me the perfect smile Ive always wanted. I would 100% recommend his office ! Such sweet honest caring people.

Dr. Sternberg received his training in porcelain veneers 23 years ago directly from the inventor himself. When you visit our office, you will receive care from a leader in the field who has been practicing this craft since the very beginning. Dr. Sternberg's son, Dr. Sandy Sternberg, is also a highly experienced dentist treating patients at our office.

Patients throughout Freehold, NJ, regularly rate us five stars for the level of care and professionalism we provide. We strive to make each patient feel welcome and comfortable the moment they enter our dental facility.

Our dental office is equipped with the latest tools and technology available. Whether you are interested in dental veneers or a comprehensive smile makeover, our modern facility is designed with your comfort in mind at all times.

After your tooth is prepped, Dr. Sternberg will take impressions and send them to an off-site dental lab. Like Dr. Sternberg, the technicians at the dental lab we use have a history of working with the inventor of porcelain veneers.

The dental lab technicians create your custom porcelain restorations with your natural teeth in mind. This ensures that the end result will look realistic and each treated tooth will blend seamlessly with the rest of your smile.

After your veneers are created and sent back to our office, you will return for placement. The temporary veneer is removed, and the new veneer is checked for a proper fit. Dr. Sternberg will attach the veneer to the tooth using a specialized cement.

Patients can immediately enjoy their brand new smile after their dental veneers are placed. Our dentist will provide you with aftercare and maintenance instructions in order to make your veneers last as long as possible.

While porcelain veneers are an excellent option and highly regarded by our patients, they are not the only cosmetic treatment at our Freehold practice.Dental bondingis a tooth-colored resin that we can use to repair minor imperfections such as chips or cracks in your teeth. It is a more affordable alternative that only takes one dental visit. However, because the results of bonding are not as durable as veneers made of high-quality porcelain, they don't last as long and may need to be redone in the future. If you have very minor flaws, dental bonding may be a suitable option for you. In fact, many patients choose to receive bonding first in order to determine if they would like to invest in veneers.Dr. Sternbergwill provide you with an honest assessment so you can make the most educated decision for yourself.

This patient came to our Freehold practice with a variety of dental concerns and complete faith in Dr. Sternberg's cosmetic dentistry skills. Dr. Sternberg provided a whitening treatment and placed several dental veneers to dramatically enhance her smile. This patient says the results are so natural thatpeople cannot tell what was done, only that her smile looks great.

One of Dr. Sternberg's biggest fans, this patient was very unhappy with the appearance of her teeth. This lack of confidence prevented her from smiling and enjoying life. After undergoing cosmetic treatment with Dr. Sternberg, she now smiles all the time and receives compliments from everyone she knows.

My husband and I have been going to Dr Sternberg for almost 30 years. We brought our daughters there as soon as they had teeth to care for! He is compassionate , gentle, thorough, extremely knowledgeable and we totally trust him. His staff is the best, always friendly and accommodating. With the addition of his son to the practice, it's a double thumbs up. I highly recommend this practice

Hands down the best dentist around ! When I switched Insurance companies and they did not accept it, I still continued to come and pay out of pocket because the experience here is like no other! Dennis, Sandy and the entire crew at Dennis Sternberg DDS ARE AMAZING! I will be a patient for life :)

Just because a veneer covers the front surface of a toothdoes not mean it prevents decay. It is important to brush your teeth twice daily with a medium or soft-bristled toothbrush and floss at least once a day. When you floss, pull the string from front to back rather than up and down the sides of your teeth to avoid snagging the edges of your veneers.

While our veneers are made from durable, high-quality materials, they are not impervious to damage. Just like your natural teeth, they can crack or chip when placed under extreme pressure. Avoid chewing on anything particularly hard,such as ice,and refrain from biting plastics or opening packages with your teeth.

One of the benefits of dental veneers is they are stain-resistant and will not lose their brightness as the years go on. However, your natural tooth enamel is still prone to discoloration. To keep your smile a consistent shade of white, avoid certain foods and drinks that are known to cause discoloration. You can also ask Dr. Sternberg about occasional whitening treatments to maintain your tooth color.

This Freehold patient had a decaying dental bridge removed by Dr. Sternberg. In its place, Dr. Sternberg secured dental crowns to dental implants. These highly stable restorations act just like natural teeth, matching their natural counterparts in appearance, function, and strength. In fact, this patient can't even tell that he has implants and crowns in his mouth.

Dennis Sternberg, D.D.S., has been rebuilding smiles in Freehold, NJ, for more than 40 years. During his career, he has helped generations of patients recover confidence and comfort by offering superior restoration of dental implants. Now joined by his son, Sandy Sternberg, D.M.D., our award-winning cosmetic dentist continues to provide life-changing implant care to patients who are missing one, some, or all of their teeth.

If you and Dr. Sternberg agree that implants are the right treatment option for you, our dental practice can coordinate dental implant surgery with a respected periodontist. Then, we can deliver a durable, natural-lookingcrown, bridge, or denture that will appear as authentic as your natural teeth.

Dennis G. Sternberg, D.D.S. - General dentist in Freehold, NJ

Dental implants are tiny posts, usually made of titanium, that act like artificial tooth roots. An oral surgeon or periodontist surgically places implants through the gums and into the jawbone. Over time, the titanium in the implants fuses with the bone and becomes part of a patient's anatomy. Then, the implants can support a dental restoration, such as a crown, bridge, or denture.

Because they securely attach to the jawbone, dental implants are widely considered the best option for replacing missing teeth. At the end of their dental implant treatment, patients have a fully functional and natural-looking smile that can radically improve their quality of life.

Dental implant surgery is typically performed by a specialist like an oral surgeon or periodontist. During the procedure, the surgeon will make small incisions in your gums. Then, he or she will insert the implants through the gums and into your jawbone. After the implants are in place, the incisions are usually closed with dissolvable sutures.

Before implants can support a dental restoration, they require a healing period of three to six months to fuse with the jawbone. During this period, some patients can receive a temporary crown, bridge, or denture that will fill any gaps in their smile.

Once the dental implants are firmly attached to your bone, they will need to receive abutments. Abutments are pieces that screw onto dental implants and connect the implants to the restoration. After abutments are placed, a second healing period of a few weeks is sometimes necessary for the gums to recover.

When your implants are ready to support a permanent dental restoration, you will return to our practice in Freehold, NJ. Dr. Sternberg will have designed a durable, natural-looking crown, bridge, or denture based on your exact specifications that he will attach to your dental implants.

Now, thanks to the wonders of modern dentistry, your smile will no longer be affected by a lost tooth. You can eat all of your favorite foods and speak without ever worrying about your prosthetic coming loose. We will provide you with detailed care instructions so you can enjoy the long-term benefits of dental implants for the rest of your life.

When a tooth is lost, bone loss can occur at the site of the missing tooth roots. If your jawbone has experienced too much atrophy, it may be too weak to support a dental implant. Fortunately, bone grafting procedures are available that can improve your candidacy.

Patients with certain health issues, like diabetes and autoimmune disorders, may not qualify for implant surgery. Furthermore, oral health concerns like gum disease will need to be addressed before your mouth will be ready for dental implants.

Smoking and chewing tobacco are detrimental to your oral health and can inhibit your body's natural healing response. If you have a tobacco habit, you should plan on quitting several months ahead of dental implant treatment.

My wife has serious dental issues for years, top specialist did not want to treat her due to the delicate and sensitive work it would require. Dr Sternberg was absolutely amazing at making her feel confident, comfortable And did a unbelievable Job - he is by far the absolute best!!!

Dr. Dennis has been our family dentist since 2013. He has installed several implants and numerous crowns on both myself and my wife. His work is meticulous and perfect. Recently I needed to replace 4 very old crowns and have a new one installed. These crowns are so well made that you can't tell them from my real teeth. He and his staff are very friendly and I highly recommend him.

There are some patients whose dentition has totally broken down. Missing teeth, non-restorable decayed teeth, a bite that has been eroded and worn down are all components that warrant full mouth reconstruction. Periodontal disease may have compromised the bone and gum support that stabilize teeth and solidly anchor them in the jaws.

Periodontal health can be re-established and restore bone and gum health in order to support a healthy dentition. Crowns and fixed bridges can recreate natural function and esthetics. Worn down teeth that have led to collapse of the original height of natural teeth can be recreated by beautiful porcelain crowns that can restore what years of neglect or trauma have caused.

Full mouth reconstruction performed by Dr. Sternberg in Freehold, near Colts Neck, utilizes the most modern as well as classical techniques and materials to recreate in both upper and lower jaws teeth that function naturally. A restored occlusion serves to support the lips and create a natural winning smile. Remaining natural teeth can be crowned or built up with porcelain. Missing teeth maybe restored by implant supported crowns or permanently cemented fixed crowns and or bridges that span areas of the mouth which have lost their natural teeth.

Dental implants can be strategically placed and used to support crowns that can restore natural function and esthetics. Many of Dr. Sternbergs patients have been able to rebuild their mouths utilizing Dental Implants. Once again they can chew and smile and kiss with confidence. It is truly remarkable to experience the improvement of quality of life that full mouth reconstruction and dental implants provide.

Occlusion is the science of how teeth in upper and lower dental arches mesh together in harmony. Dr. Sternberg has achieved expertise in recreating proper and healthy dental occlusion. Dentistry is both and art and a science. Dr. Sternbergs staff are well versed in assisting him in creating function and esthetics for their patients.

Patients are always partners in creating esthetics that please them. Together with Dr. Sternberg, whose practice located near The Jersey Shore, experience Dentistry that is comfortable, caring and successful in restoring healthy functional and beautiful smiles.

You will not meet another dentist that actually cares about you or your family more than Dr. STERNBERG . A few years ago my then 11 yr old son had his front tooth shot in half by an air soft gun on Christmas Day. A family that was that there was a dentist. He said he will be fine but needs to go to a specialist. Hiding this from my wife so it didn't ruin Christmas we got through the day. I was able to see Dr. STERNBERG two days after Christmas. He was appalled any dentist would say it could wait, especially a family member. He educated me that an infection could set in and could turn into a worse situation. He immediately got to work on my son comforting him the entire time. He said we would need to go to a specialist for a root canal. The specialist was booked for a week. Dr Dennis got on the phone with him and we had an appointment in 30 min. I thanked Dr STERNBERG for all his help and compassion. As I arrived at the specialist I realized no one was in the waiting room. At first I thought this specialist wasn't so special with an empty waiting room. I quickly realized the office was on their lunch break and opened up just for us. While the specialist was working on my son, who comes walking in....Dr STERNBERG. I asked why he came, he said he was skipping lunch and drove over to check on us. He saw we were both nervous wrecks. I don't think anyone else would have done the same. Great dentist, great human being. Myself and my family will be his patients until he retires.

On a recommendation from a family member after looking for a new dentist since moving down to Freehold, I went here and could not be happier. It's nice to find a dentist like Dr. Sandy Sternberg, who explains what they're doing and talks you through your options are. The staff is great and helpful when it comes to helping to navigate dental insurance too!

I don't think I've ever had a doctor, of any discipline, sit and take so much time with me. It is clear that Dr. Sternberg takes real pride in his job and deeply cares about his patients. His knowledge and experience is so impressive and reassuring. Step by step he explained everything he was doing as he was doing it and constantly reassured me throughout the visit. He is also the only dentist that has ever screened me for oral cancer, which to him is apart of his regular routine. He went above and beyond any other dentist I've ever had. My family, despite being content with their dentist, has decided to switch to him too because I would not stop raving! Kelly, his assistant during my appointment, was amazing as well! She was so friendly.

I've been going to Family Dentistry for several years now. Every time I go in the office staff is pleasant, they are timely, and all around do a fantastic job. Both Dennis and Sandy have been amazing dentists who consistently do a great job each and every time I go. My wife and several members of her family also have been going to Family Dentistry for quite a few years and always have positive things to say when they leave. I would highly recommend using this practice if you are looking for a great dentist!
