The Treatment:

The Diagnosis:

A 29 year old female had one dark front tooth from a previous accident and root canal. 

The Treatment:

An 80 year old female had a failing gold bridge. The bridge was replaced with a porcelain bridge which gives a more natural appearance.

A 35 year old female had worn and crooked lower teeth along with a porcelain fused to metal crown on the upper teeth that did not appear natural. Porcelain veneers were placed on the upper and lower teeth to improve symmetry, color and esthetics.

59 year old male had old dull looking porcelain crowns and veneers. He requested a lighter color to give a more youthful appearance.

84 year old female had multiple missing teeth and failing restorations. Porcelain bridges were placed to restore function and esthetics.

63 year old female had existing dental work that did not blend in with her natural dentition. Porcelain bridges were used to restore esthetics and function.

32 year old female patient was unhappy with her prior dental treatment that had poor cosmetics and symmetry. A gum lift was first performed to improve the length of the teeth. Porcelain crowns, bridges and veneers were used to improve the cosmetics and proportions of the smile.

A 95 year old male had worn, chipped, uneven and decayed upper teeth. There were also several missing teeth. The smile was restored with a combination of porcelain crowns and bridges and dental implants.

A 67 year old male had worn, chipped, uneven and decayed upper teeth. There were also several missing teeth. The smile was restored with a combination of porcelain crowns and bridges.

76 year old female patient had old porcelain fused to metal crowns that were giving her gum tissue a dark appearance. The case is further complicated as the patient is congenitally missing her lateral incisors. All the upper teeth were retreated with all porcelain crowns and the smile was redesigned. The patient also requested a lighter shade to give a more youthful appearance.
