This very youthful grandmother started noticing that her teeth were darkening and becoming translucent. During our examination we concluded that her teeth had experienced severe acid erosion over the past two years. She immediately saw a GI specialist who diagnosed her with severe gastric reflux and began treatment to get her condition under control. To protect, restore, and beautify her teeth, we placed 10 upper and 10 lower porcelain crowns. She now has her gorgeous, youthful smile back.

She says that her family immediately noticed how beautiful she looked after her smile makeover, and she regularly gets compliments on it.
This attractive school nurse wanted to change the shape and color of her teeth. She was congenitally missing two of her front teeth as a child, and braces had been placed to close the spaces, but the teeth just did not have the right shape to fool the eye. We placed 8 veneers on her upper front teeth to correct the shape of the teeth and brighten her smile.
She always had a kind and warm expression before, but now the children comment how beautiful her teeth are!
This kind-eyed grandpa had cracks in his center front teeth, so crowns were planned. As we talked further, we decided that Grandpa’s smile would look amazing if we placed porcelain veneers on the adjacent teeth. We first bleached his teeth so we could provide restorations to match his newly brightened smile. At first Grandpa was reluctant to close the gap between his teeth because he was well known for it. We let him wear temporary restorations home so his wife and friends could decide if they preferred his smile with or without the gap. They all voted for the final result you see here! Everyone is happy with Grandpa’s handsome smile!

Kelly, a handsome father of three, had teeth that were just too small for his size and stature. He was unhappy with his smile and also recognized that his teeth did not fit together well.

He now smiles confidently and remarked that during the weeks right after receiving the new restorations, he kept doing a “double take” when looking in the mirror. He and his family love his new smile!

Now she can chew with confidence knowing that her teeth won’t shift or move.

smile so attractive, she would have had it done years earlier!

This older gentleman was missing two of his front teeth from birth. Many years ago a dentist tried to cover his canines with porcelain fused to metal crowns to try to make them look like the lateral incisors he was missing. He was very nervous about placing the six restorations we were encouraging him to get, but once we removed the old crowns and placed new ones on the front four teeth as well as crowns on each tooth on either side of those four, he was thrilled with his new smile and felt his sales career would even be improved by his new look!
