Mike had been concerned about his smile for most of his life. His smile is part of his uniform and he was concerned about his smile looked and felt it affected his performance. His teeth were discolored, dark and had old bonding. He had also had a lifelong gap between his top front teeth that he wanted to get rid of. Using porcelain veneers and crowns Mike got the smile he wanted in just 2 visits!  He now loves to smile and is happy to take pictures. His smile makeover increased his self confidence and transformed how he presents himself.

Before

After

Jose is a very busy business man who was referred to us by a friend who was thrilled with the smile makeover we did for them. He was concerned about how his smile looked. He was missing an adult tooth in the front since childhood and his front teeth had become dark and stained. His teeth had worn out in the front because of his bite problems. But, he was most concerned about how long it would take for his smile to be fixed and what it would look like. In 2 visits we fixed his smile using porcelain veneers and crowns and corrected lifelong problems including a bad bite.

Before

After

Claude wanted better looking teeth. He saw us in a flight magazine. He has seen many dentists over the years but felt frustrated because he never got the results he wanted. He was also concerned because he had been given many proposed treatment plans that would have taken a long time- restoring 1 tooth at a time. He is now smiling more than ever and got his ideal smile in only 2 visits using porcelain veneers and porcelain crowns.

Jorge had been self conscious about his smile since he was a child- he was born without some adult teeth. He did not like having his picture taken and was hesitant to smile of his dark, stained teeth.

Sandra had always had strong teeth but they were dark and made her feel self conscious about smiling.

Before

After

Steve had always wanted to do something about his smile.  He finally got around to it and was delighted with the result.  He had always been hesitant to smile and felt uncomfortable around people of his smile.  He was born without some adult teeth in the front and had large gaps and spaces and uneven gum line.   He also had dark teeth and lots of old dental work, metal fillings (amalgams) that were breaking down.  Using porcelain veneers, porcelain bridges and porcelain crowns we gave Steve the smile of his dreams.

Suzette came see us because she was not happy with her smile.  She was also disappointed that even though she went her local dentist regularly her smile never got better.  She had a lot of old dental work in her mouth with cavities growing around it.  She did not like her dark teeth and gummy smile.  Using a diode gum laser, porcelain veneers and porcelain crowns we created Suzette’s dream smile in 2 visits!

Before

After

Vienna came to us because she was unhappy with how her smile looked.  She did not like her small teeth and felt that her grinding and clenching had made them even shorter.  She felt her teeth were too small, she did not like her short teeth and felt she had dark teeth.  She was also having problems with headaches and jaw pain and but was not sure where that was coming from (TMD/migraines).  In about 4 months we were able to get her out of pain, give her a stable bite and also create the beautiful smile she wanted.  Using out state of the art Galileos CT scan to look at her jaw joints (TMJ’s) and the K7 computer and TENS we were able to find her relaxed jaw muscle position and used that information to build her beautiful, pain free smile with porcelain veneers and porcelain crowns.

Before

After

Virginia had strong teeth but they were dark and did not fit her bright personality.  They had become darker over the years and may have been discolored from childhood medications like tetracycline which causes dark adult teeth. She also felt that her gums showed too much.  Using a diode gum laser, porcelain veneers and porcelain crowns we were able to give Virginia the smile of her dreams.
