A bright white smile can be an instant boost in self-confidence and make you look and feel younger.

Robison Dental Group renews smiles daily for patients throughout Canton, MI, Ann Arbor, Northville, Westland, Plymouth, and the surrounding communities.
What Causes Teeth Staining and Discoloration?
Tooth discoloration and staining can begin at any age, and can be caused by a number of different factors including:
- Genetic defect
- Congenital diseases
- Environmental factors
- Infections
- Metabolic diseases
- Prescription drugs and medications
- The antibiotic tetracycline
- Eating or drinking acidic items including tea, coffee, soda, or wine
- High fever at an age when teeth are forming
- Poor oral hygiene habits
- Neonatal jaundice
- Fluorosis (over use of fluoride)
Why Choose Teeth Whitening from Robison Dental?
Teeth whitening, by definition, is a process through which teeth appear whiter. Although this is a simple definition, the actual teeth whitening process is not so simple. Most teeth whitening products fall into one of two categories; bleaching products which contain peroxides that actually remove deep staining and change the color of the enamel, and non-bleaching whitening products which contain mild abrasives that remove surface stains only. Teeth whitening toothpastes fall into the latter category, and cannot effectively whiten discolored enamel. Most over- the-counter teeth whitening products do contain bleaching agents; however, they are heavily diluted. Therefore it can take several weeks of daily use before you will be able to seen any significant change in the color of your teeth. Your best option is to make a teeth whitening appointment with Dr. Robison. Dr. Robison offers fast and professional in-office teeth whitening, and easy to use take-home teeth whitening with custom fitted whitening trays. Either option will get your teeth several shades whiter in a fraction of the time it would take with any DIY product. In addition, Dr. Robison can ensure that your teeth and gums stay healthy and are not irritated by your whitening treatment.

Rejuvenate Your Smile with Porcelain Veneers!
August 15, 2014
Having a smile you feel as though you are merely settling for can be very detrimental to your self-esteem. Because many people think of a smile as a first impression, but being able to feel confident in your smile and in the way you look can affect the way you view yourself as well as the way you interact with the people around you. Whether your teeth are gapped, misaligned, stained, or chipped, it can be difficult being as outgoing as you would like, and you may feel as though there is nothing you can do in order to rectify your smile. Fortunately, Dr. J.D. Robison is able to give you the smile you have always wanted by offering porcelain veneers at his Canton, MI dental office.
One of the reasons why many patients choose porcelain veneers is because they are able to cover up many blemishes in your smile. Being able to cover up years of wear and tear on your smile, porcelain veneers are an excellent way to achieve the smile you have always wanted.
The first step to your porcelain veneers is a consultation with Dr. Robison. There, he will be able to assess your smile in its current state, discuss your smile goals, and go over how you will want your new smile to look. You will also have that time to bring up any questions or concerns you may have about the procedure, allowing you to be as knowledgeable and comfortable throughout this entire process as possible. Dr. Robison will make impressions of your smile, and send them to a dental lab to have your veneers made. With this, we are able to keep your facial features in mind, making sure your smile transformation is as natural-looking as possible. Your natural tooth is prepared by removing a small bit of enamel, ensuring space in your mouth for your new smile. When your veneers are ready, they will be placed and made permanent with dental resin cement. At the end of the procedure, you are left with a gorgeous smile that everyone will envy! If you would like Dr. Robison’s help rejuvenating your smile using porcelain veneers, contact our office today!

Professional Teeth Whitening for Canton and Beyond
January 31, 2014
At some point, our smiles will experience some amount of staining. Popular beverages like coffee, tea, red wine, fruit juice, soda, and more can all cause stained or discolored teeth. Tobacco use can also contribute, and even aging itself.
But thankfully, you don’t have to live with staining. At Robison Dental Group, we offer teeth whitening to help you reduce the appearance of staining and restore the dazzling smile you once had. Specifically, our Canton office offers two types of teeth whitening for our patients to choose from: in-office teeth whitening and take-home teeth whitening.
In-office teeth whitening gives you fast results. If you end up choosing this option, all you have to do is sit back and relax while our Canton team whitens your teeth several shades over the course of a single visit. In-office teeth whitening is a good choice for patients who need fast results for an upcoming event, like a wedding, a graduation, a family event, or a job search.
This option isn’t right for everyone, though. For some patients, in-office teeth whitening causes sensitivity. In those cases, we might recommend a take-home teeth whitening kit. Take-home teeth whitening includes a set of bleaching trays, plus a supply of professional whitening gel. Over the course of a few days, you can whiten your teeth at home doing simple, everyday things, like reading, watching TV, or doing household chores. The process is comfortable, convenient, and delivers great results.
Do you want to learn more about our teeth whitening options? Call Robison Dental Group in Canton today for an appointment. We’re helping patients from Ann Arbor, Northville, Westland, and Plymouth achieve whiter, more beautiful smiles.

Create a Beautiful Smile with Porcelain Veneers
October 6, 2013
A healthy smile is important, but so is a beautiful smile. Not only can you brighten a friend or family member’s day with one, but it can also be an asset in the business and dating world.
Unfortunately, not everyone has naturally dazzling teeth. Thankfully, with a cosmetic dentistry service like porcelain veneers from Robison Dental Group, it’s possible to achieve exactly what you’re looking for, and in a way that looks natural.
Porcelain veneers use very thin pieces of dental porcelain to hide a range of flaws, including, stains, cracks, chips, and misalignment. Through a consultation with Dr. John R. Robison or Dr. J.D. Robison, we can assess what your exact needs are and talk to you about your smile goals. Then, based on that conversation, our Canton dental team can start designing your veneers and prepping your teeth. To make porcelain veneers lie flat a small amount of enamel is removed from the front of teeth.
Using the information Dr. John Robison or Dr. J.D. Robison collects from your first appointment our lab will create a full, customized set of veneers for you. When they’re ready, you’ll come back to Robison Dental Group in Canton to have them fixed in place, completing your cosmetic treatment.
Do you want to know how your smile can benefit from porcelain veneers? Our team at Robison Dental Group can help. Call us today for a consultation. During your visit, we’ll assess your needs and explain all your options. We offer exceptional cosmetic care to patients from Canton, Ann Arbor, Northville, Westland, and Plymouth.

The Anti-Aging Benefit of Teeth Whitening
July 18, 2013
Drinks like coffee, tea, red wine, soda, and fruit juice are commonly cited for causing teeth stains, but there’s more to staining than any of these. Aging is another big factor. But unlike other common causes of staining, aging isn’t something that can be avoided.
Still, with a cosmetic dentistry service like teeth whitening, there’s a way around this type of staining, one that will improve confidence. But that’s not all. With your whiter, brighter smile, you can also turn back the clock on your appearance, enjoying wonderful anti-aging benefits.
At Robison Dental Group, your Canton cosmetic dentists—Dr. John R. Robison and Dr. J.D. Robison—offer two teeth whitening options for patients to take advantage of.
The first option, in-office whitening, takes just a single appointment to complete and allows you to sit back and relax in our comfortable office. The second option, take-home whitening, lets you do it all on your own schedule, while you’re cleaning the house, watching TV, reading, or any number of other things.
But which of these teeth whitening options is right for you?
If you’d like to learn more about teeth whitening in general, or you’d like to see which option might be best for you, call Robison Dental Group today. We’re happy to offer cosmetic care to patients from Canton, Ann Arbor, Northville, Westland, and Plymouth.

Five Reasons to Smile Everyday
July 15, 2013
When you smile, you’re sending a strong signal to others. For instance, a smile can tell someone that you’re friendly and approachable. It can also tell someone else that they’re appreciated, or that you enjoy their company. Smiling isn’t just a way of communicating, though. This simple act has other far-reaching benefits. In today’s post, we’d like to highlight five of the biggest so that you have even more reasons to smile every day.
Reason #1
In medical research, it’s been found that smiling can have a positive effect on your blood pressure by lowering it.
Reason #2
Smiling produces more antibodies and white blood cells, which helps your immune system stay strong in the face of colds and other issues.
Reason #3
According to research conducted by the University of Illinois, people who are happier, and who smile more as a result, live almost 10 years longer.
Reason #4
Smiling releases the feel-good hormones known as endorphins, as well as serotonin, a natural stress-reducer.
Reason #5
DePauw University in Indiana found that people who smile consistently reported having a healthier marriage than those who don’t.
What’s keeping you from smiling? Is it misaligned or stained teeth? Or do you possibly have gaps in your smile that you’re trying to hide? At Robison Dental Group, our team can help. We offer effective general, cosmetic, and restorative services. Call us today to reserve a consultation appointment with Dr. John Robison or Dr. J.D. Robison. We serve patients from Canton, Ann Arbor, Northville, Westland, Plymouth, and beyond.
