Limited By His Smile!

 
Before
This "self-made" “twenty-something” professional was working his way to the top....when he "bumped” his head on a proverbial “enamel” ceiling. No decay here, just mal-formed teeth.

After
This case brought out the artist in me!  His spaced, tapered teeth were ideal for minimal tooth reduction. His teeth were whitened, models taken, a lab "wax mock-up" made and veneers were constructed. With his smile and confidence restored, his career and salary soared!!

Otherwise attractive female age 20
about to marry!

 
Before
This otherwise attractive female, age 20, had tooth decay, staining and misaligned teeth. She wanted them to look perfect for her wedding....in three weeks!  

 
After
First visit: Teeth are whitened in-office. Second visit: Decay is removed and her four front teeth are prepared for cosmetic veneers.  Esthetic temporaries were placed. On her third visit the porcelain veneers were bonded. The wedding was a big success! Everyone loved her beautiful new smile!!!

Uncomfortable with her front teeth!
Now she loves to smile!

 
Before
This intelligent middle age woman was never pleased by her "crooked", discolored teeth. She always wanted to fix them but her husband felt she looked just fine!  Now, with her children grown and successful, she wanted to do something nice for herself!

After
The severe crowding of her front teeth made treatment technically difficult!  Plaster models, photos and laboratory wax "mock-ups" were needed.  Her crowns and veneers were finished in just two treatment visits.  She was delighted!  Her husband was thrilled!

A singer that was afraid to open his mouth!

 
Before
Afraid to smile, this 30 year old singing artist never seemed very happy!  His agent/manager asked me to help. Cigarette stain, decay and wide gaps between his teeth detracted from his appearance. His stage presence suffered.

 
After
Correcting decay and tooth color was easy. Closing the gaps without making his teeth look like "Chiclets"...That took skill!  The key to success was to selectively reduce his natural teeth then re-proportion the space with veneers.  Now, he smiles when he sings!
