  
Dan
Dan
had two crowns on his teeth that were placed as a kid.
They were the result of bad bicycle accident. The look of the crowns
had always bothered him and made him self-conscious to ever smile again.
His new crowns are made with all porcelain
and no metal. This allows light to flow through the restorations
and appear natural to the naked eye. We blended porcelain
veneers around the new crowns to enhance the rest
of his smile.
  
Derek
Derek is a CEO of a High-Tech company, which leaves him very little time
for dentistry. As each day passed, he knew something
had to be done with his teeth; and fast.
We
restored Derek’s mouth in four simple visits. After finding
a relaxed position for Derek's facial
muscles, he was restored to ideal form
and function with full-mouth porcelain
restorations. Not only does he feel better from
having a correct bite, but he is thrilled with his new found self-confidence
in the way he looks.
  
Ray
Ray
is a successful businessman who ended up losing teeth to periodontal
disease. He was already suffering from a
smile that lacked good looks and he knew it was time to take control.
We gave
Ray many different options, ranging from implants to
bridges. Ray decided on a fixed bridge.
As you can see, Ray is very pleased with his new found smile.
  
Francis
Francis
had a good friend who had her smile enhanced. She loved her smile
and wanted the same for herself. She had recently retired from her
job and a new smile was first on her list.
We
placed ten veneers on Francis's teeth. This made
her teeth whiter and closed all her spaces. Now
she can't stop smiling!
  
Gil
Gil's
mother gave him tetracycline as a baby, which caused his teeth to turn
dark in color. Gil is an actor and he wanted perfect, white teeth.
We placed ten veneers across Gils smile. We masked
out the darkness on his teeth by placing composite under
the veneer.
  
Debbie
Debbie
is a wonderful lady who survived cancer at a young age. She had
years of chemotherapy that took a toll on her smile. Her story was
so heart-warming that she was featured on the Learning Channel.
Debbie
had eight porcelain veneers placed over
her teeth. This is an excellent example of how
teeth can be straightened using veneers. We re-shaped
and re-contoured her teeth back into alignment and then
placed these beautiful, delicate veneers over Debbie's
teeth.
Debbie
cried when she received her new smile and later told us that she feels
people now speak to her in a more respectful manner.
  
Robert
Detective
Robert had large spaces between his teeth and his jaw
would pop every time he would open his mouth. The Learning
Channel filmed his beautiful transformation.
Jenna
Jenna wanted to improve her smile, eliminating the stains and
discolorations on her front teeth. Her smile exhibited what we
call in cosmetic dentistry “a reverse curve,” when the smile does not
follow the contour of the lower lip. In order to correct it, the dentist
must make the front teeth longer or the canine teeth shorter.
As you can see, the reverse curve is gone. Her teeth are whiter
and now exist without stains. The porcelain veneers brighten
up her entire face and complete her quest for maximum beauty.
David
David was very concerned about how his teeth flared or
“beaked” out. I told David that to correct this, I had to have
control over his top and bottom smile in order to make it even. It’s
hard to tell from the photo how “beaked” his smile was, but it
definitely bothered him.
His smile was brought in considerably, reducing the
“beaking,” and his teeth became whiter. He was very
pleased with the result.
Veronica
Veronica was in desperate need of not only a general dentist to
help her with decaying and breaking teeth, but of a strong
cosmetic dentist to help her with her smile. Luckily, today’s
cosmetic dentistry is so strong and durable that it not only looks
fantastic but it lasts a long time.
I cleaned up all the problems that existed in her teeth and made
her a smile that flows wonderfully with the contour of her lower
lip. I made her teeth a bit larger than her original teeth because we
both felt that they would be in better proportion to her facial
features. We were right!
Donovan
Severe crowding like Donovan’s can destroy a person’s self
confidence and image. Porcelain veneer treatment is a strong,
viable procedure that can not only make your smile straight, but
add better color, contour, size and shape to your teeth. It only takes
two visits to complete and will last an extremely long time.
As you can see, Donovan now has a wide, straight smile that is
dazzling to look at.
What I like about doing smile make-overs is that every smile
takes on its own personality. No smile is ever perfect, even though I
am always striving for perfection. Because my canvas constantly
changes, every person’s smile will be unique.
Aziza
Porcelain veneers will not only correct severe crowding but
also close large gaps. Believe it or not, Aziza’s is not the
biggest gap I have closed with porcelain veneers. There is absolutely
no reason why anyone needs to walk around self-consciously when
this procedure exists and takes only two visits to complete.
I believe that improving Aziza’s smile caused a domino effect in
which many other aspects of her appearance improved. She
now has so much vitality in her entire face!
Vic
I laugh when I think about Vic because he originally only wanted
to fix one tooth. He did not like the tooth that sat back in his
smile. During our consultation, we discussed many other aspects of
his smile that could be improved, and I showed him how a smile
should look and flow from one tooth to another, with facets and
minor crowding eliminated. Because Vic is an ex-football player, he
could also benefit from a wider and taller smile which would fill out
his face and put his smile in proper proportion.
Vic’s entire face is enhanced as his smile has become an added
feature. His front teeth that sat back from his lips are now
straight and normal in his smile.
Georgia
Georgia’s wonderful personality was inhibited by a gap that
she just didn’t want to live with anymore. The two front
teeth that were central to her smile looked overly large next to her
small adjacent teeth. Also, too much of her gums showed when she
smiled, causing her top lip to appear thin.
With a diode laser, I amable to raise the gum line and lessen a
“gummy” smile. You can still see Georgia’s gums, but her
teeth now flow together naturally and beautifully. The diode laser
causes no pain or bleeding, and healing is remarkably quick. The
porcelain veneers did a great job of closing her gap and allowing the
top and bottom of her smile to be in perfect proportion to one
another.
