Patricia C

This is my patient Patricia. She came to see me with complaint of not showing any teeth when she smiles. She went to see several different dentists who couldn’t help her. These dentists told her that she needed crowns but she did not want this option. She did her research online for 6 months and decided to come see me for veneers because she wanted something less invasive.

I was able to accomplish this amazing smile makeover in 3 visits, since she lives out of state I opened up her bite, lengthened her teeth, and widened her smile. And for those of you who were wondering if she had any type of lip or jaw surgery, she did not. I did all of this with 12 porcelain veneers and 16 onlay veneers. The final results are absolutely stunning and Patricia loves her beautiful new smile! She has been getting lots of compliments on her smile from family, friends, and co-workers.

Daniel C

My patient Dan hated his teeth. As you can see, they are terribly discolored, broken down, decayed, and pitted. He was always sensitive to hot and cold exposures due to the enamel defects and he had continuous pain because of exposed dentin. I diagnosed him with Amelogenesis Imperfecta. It is a disorder that can be inherited and it affects the structure and appearance of the enamel of the teeth. This condition causes teeth to be very small, discolored, grooved or pitted, and prone to rapid wear and breakage with early tooth decay and tooth loss. Common treatments to address form and function include dental veneers, full dental crowns, or when existing teeth are unsalvageable, complete dental replacement therapy.

Dan went to several dentists who couldn’t help him because they didn’t know what condition he has. Therefore, he was researching for 8 months and finally found me. In this case, I was able to restore him with 12 anterior porcelain veneers and 12 posterior porcelain crowns. I restored his function and health and gave him an amazing smile makeover. He said it is truly life-changing and he is now no longer embarrassed to smile in public.

It is not often that I see this type of congenital disorder in my office. I am so happy and blessed that I was able to help this young man and change his life for the better. Seeing him happy brings me a lot of joy.

Brooke was not happy with the aesthetics of her smile due to the short length of her teeth. Her chief complaint was that when she smiles, she is not showing enough teeth. She displayed very short, discolored, and worn down teeth. Also, she lost most of her enamel due to grinding of the teeth which caused her to have a “reverse smile” effect.

She wanted whiter, brighter, straighter, and longer teeth. I gave her an amazing smile with 12 super minimal prep porcelain veneers. She was very happy with her new smile. Her smile is now wider, longer, brighter, and more balanced. This is definitely a confidence booster!

She had 2 old faulty anterior porcelain crowns with open margins and cavities, and a narrow arch with negative spaces. She wanted whiter, fuller, straighter, and longer teeth. I gave her an amazing smile with 10 minimal prep porcelain veneers and 2 replacement porcelain crowns. She was very happy with her new smile. The teeth are brighter and longer, and her midline and bite were improved. Her smile was widened and is now more balanced. This gorgeous new smile is definitely a confidence booster.

Gabriela S

Gabriela was unhappy with her smile and wanted to improve it. Gabriela‘s old smile did not fit her beautiful and wonderful personality. She had multiple gaps between her teeth. Her teeth were misaligned, dark, and discolored. The irregular size of her teeth were not proportional to her face. After initial consultation, she had an accident where she had fractured the front left lateral incisor. This fractured tooth was then extracted.

I was able to close the gaps between her teeth, add some length and made her teeth proportional to her features. I was able to give her a broader, whiter, and brighter smile with 7 minimum prep porcelain veneers and a 3 units porcelain bridge. She loves her final smile transformation and she gets lots of compliments from family, friends, and co-workers.

Sandra R

Sandra was not happy with how her smile looked and felt self-conscious. She was always embarrassed to smile and was also concerned about the health of her teeth. She was dissatisfied with her smile because her teeth were dark, stained, crooked, and worn down. She had missing teeth, a lot of decay, old faulty dark bondings, an uneven smile, and an underbite. Also, her dental midline was severely off. She wanted a beautiful, healthy, brighter, and whiter new smile so that she can regain her confidence both professionally and personally.

She wanted a smile makeover to fix all of these problems. I gave her a gorgeous whiter and brighter smile with porcelain bridges, porcelain crowns, and porcelain veneers.

Her brand new smile increased her self-confidence and it shows in the after photo – she looks much younger and rejuvenated. Sandra loves her new beautiful dazzling smile and is now proud to show it off. She looks amazing and gets compliments on her beautiful smile all the time!

James C

James had a chief complaint that when he smiles, he is not showing that many teeth and he was embarrassed about it. James displayed very short, discolored, and worn down teeth. Also, he lost most of his enamel due to grinding of his teeth. He lost a lot of vertical dimension which caused him to have a “reverse smile” effect. By using porcelain veneers and onlay veneers, we were able to open his bite and lengthen his teeth. This therefore improved his function, health, and esthetics. We were able to address his chief complaint and gave him an amazing outcome!
