She is proud to give her time to a place that has been so impactful to her and teach alongside some of the most talented clinicians in dental education!!

Ephesians 6:11
Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN from your favorite condiment department!! 🎃🦷🪥

Condiments are like old friends — highly thought of, but often taken for granted! Don’t take your 🦷 for granted on this sugary day!!

Kellogg & Latz Dentistry is now offering Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT) at each dental hygiene visit!
What is GBT?

Biofilm is bad. You can’t see it, smell it, or feel it, but it is the main cause of tooth decay, gum disease, and even tooth loss. Studies also show that biofilm increases systemic risks such as Alzheimer’s, heart disease, respiratory disorders, diabetes and more if left unmanaged. GBT identifies the biofilm and effectively removes it in a truly comfortable and pain free experience. We are so excited for you to experience this cutting edge technology and ehancement to your hygiene visits in our office!!
(And we are only one of FIVE GBT certified dental offices in the state of Michigan!!! 👏🏻👏🏻)

Kellogg & Latz Dentistry: voted best views from a dental chair in Jackson county! ✅
Nature in abundance this summer!!

✨VENEERS✨ are a small, sheath-like piece of porcelain that fits over a tooth’s enamel, covering abnormalities, protecting the tooth’s surface from damage and enhances aesthetics for a beautiful smile.

Porcelain material flawlessly imitates a tooth’s enamel surface. The authenticity of a newly restored smile with dental veneers is contingent on the skill level of the laboratory technician that creates the veneer itself, as well as the precision of the cosmetic dentist performing the procedure.

I am proud to partner with Glen Emrick II at Hallmark Ceramic Laboratory to bring our patients these incredible, predictable results! Life-changing!!

Wishing you all a safe and happy 4th of July!! Grateful today for our friends and family, our freedoms, and the opportunity to do what with love, with and for the people we love!! 🇺🇸

Our office will be closed July 1st - 5th and will re-open at 7am on Wednesday, July 6th! Happy 4th!!

This awesome smile was four years in the making!! Challenging case as it involved a congenitally missing tooth, trauma from an athletic injury, followed by a horrible dog bite! 😰 We have all loved getting to know this resilient young man throughout the duration of this case!

Friday-Funday!!! This smile transformation was done today in one appointment! This patient was unhappy with her smile and size of her worn teeth! Without any damage to her natural teeth OR anesthetic — we enhanced her smile with simple, additive cosmetic bonding! Beautiful! 🤩

Our practice has been closed the last three days so that we could host a hygiene seminar at our learning center in the office. Our amazing hygienists and doctors partnered with three other relationship centered practices in the Midwest to bring in the country’s leading experts in periodontics and restorative partnership to this study club. We had hands on learning with the most cutting edge technology in periodontics so that we could bring these things into our offices to better serve our own patients. So proud of our team to their commitment to education and the enhancement of our practice and our patients oral heath! Our dental minds and hearts are full this weekend!! ❤️

🇺🇲 May we remember today, and everyday, the brave men and women who gave the ultimate sacrifice for the freedoms that we get to enjoy.
All gave some, some gave all ❤️💙

Receiving text messages from patients who are grateful for the time, skill and care that we put into bite splint therapy is the BEST!! Who loves their anatomic bitesplint … raise your hand 🙋‍♂️🙋‍♀️!!!!

Dr. Kellogg was out of the office teaching advanced bitesplint therapy at the Pankey Institute this week. The Pankey Institute is the world's oldest, most prestigious learning center for advanced dentistry. She enjoys giving back to a place that has impacted her so much!

Our rockstar team spent the day together learning at the Michigan Dental Association’s Annual Session!! Thank you for always going above and beyond! You are the BEST!! 🤩🤩

Complete COSMETIC & FUNCTIONAL makeover!!🔥

This patient was unhappy with her old, dark porcelain crowns and wanted a change! We restored her to superior aesthetics using new Emax pressed ceramic crown work!! We also addressed a destructive bite and improved her function and stability in her new smile design! Huge Transformation, Happy Patient!! 🤩

We thank you for your servant hearts and for sharing your talents and gifts with all of us!! We are so lucky to have you! ❤️🦷🪥😁

Transformation Tuesday! So excited to share this smile make over! We recently changed these older style PFM (porcelain-fused-to-metal) crowns to a more natural, esthetic all porcelain crown work! The outcome was gorgeous! We all loved being a part of this life changing experience for this beautiful woman! ❤️🦷

❤ Your Team

We’ve had a really nice last couple of weeks and have been showered with lots of yummy treats from some of our awesome patients (THANK YOU btw!!!) … but this sweet letter we received recently was our teams favorite “gift!” ❤️

Dr. Kellogg and Dr. Latz were in Chicago this week at The American Equilibration Society scientific meeting that Dr. Kellogg organized and co-chaired this year! The AES is a leading international organization of dental professionals advancing the science and clinical application of knowledge in Occlusion (the way our teeth come together and function), TMD, and Comprehensive Oral Care. 👏🏻👏🏻

We were out of the office last week for a team retreat. Had time to work ON the practice, so that we can be better for ourselves, each other and our patients. Stretched our minds (and our bodies a little too)! ❤️

Filling your Valentine’s Day feed with some more beautiful porcelain! — 💕 The Kellogg & Latz Crew

Sharing one of our most favorite new smiles! Our patient loves her smile, which combines ceramic crowns and fixed implant restorations. A challenging case which required a lot of planning and time in provisionals! Isn’t she beautiful!?!! The best part of patient centered dentistry is getting the opportunity to work with people like this!!
