Patient felt like her side teeth (the laterals) were shifting out of view and that her canines were too pointy. While the laterals were shifting, in reality, they were also disproportionally small. Well defined (pointy) canines are a feature of an attractive and functioning bite, and so, we sought to preserve that. Treatment involved orthodontics using Invisalign® to address the lower crowding, the shifting of the laterals and to create room/space for veneers to correct for the size discrepancy followed by two veneers on her laterals. A great shade and shape match was achieved with patient feeling extremely more confident in smiling.


Patient had bonding done a few times over of his left front tooth. Bonding is a simple, minimally invasive way to correct chips. However, since the bonding did not hold, the more reliable option of a veneer was elected. This also allowed to correct the underlying discoloration of the tooth. We were very satisfied with the shade match. Matching one front tooth to the other is considered to be difficult especially as the eye is drawn to the front two teeth and it loves symmetry. On top of that, when the two teeth that one tends to zero in on are side by side, even the slightest color mismatch can seem “off”. For this reason, many dentists may recommending that both teeth get veneers. My preference is to keep treatment to a minimum while considering a long term view. Through great communication with an outstanding dental lab, including the patient visiting the lab, we were able to achieve a great result without needing to treat his other tooth.

When a tooth supporting this patient’s bridge on her upper left fractured, a new bridge was not an option, and so, she was to have implants to replace the missing teeth. She was in the midst of having the implants placed, when she decided she wanted to use this as an opportunity to correct her other crowns as she had always felt they were too bulky and were too forward. Looking at her case with a comprehensive eye, we realized right away we could not simply put on slimmer crowns because her lower teeth also jutted out. We needed to bring her lower teeth in first. This was accomplish with Invisalign®. With her lower teeth in a more ideal position, we could then design her upper crowns so they’d be in a more desirable/aesthetic position.

This patient never had her adult lateral (side) teeth form. She was left with only her baby teeth. One of which was replaced by an implant. She had an improperly angled crown that angled out on her right and on her left she had a poorly contoured crown- too bulbous and long. Her front two teeth were worn and chipped. Two new side crown and two new front veneers gave her a more symmetrical and harmonious smile.

Patient was missing her lateral incisors (side front teeth). She previously had bonding on the adjacent teeth to close the gap. The bonding was beginning to chip and discolor. A more reliable option was veneers. When you are trying to close a space by restoring the neighboring teeth, you want to avoid having the teeth appear too wide. Attention was paid to the line angles of the teeth (the parts on the side edges of each tooth that are more prominent) so that when light reflects, the tooth does not appear too wide.

Patient was unhappy with his smile as the teeth were worn down and he felt they were too yellow. He desired to have very white teeth. Treatment consisted of sixteen veneers. Eight on the uppers and eight on the lowers. In planning his treatment we discussed having only six on the top or extending to ten. Since his upper first premolar was conspicuous in his smile line, treating only six would make his smile look incomplete. To go to ten would look that much nicer, but a nice result did not hinge on that. Also, since the option to include two more veneers would always exist, we felt eight veneers would give an aesthetic result that can easily be enhanced if need be. By collaborating and discussing treatment options and their aspects with the patient, it helps to ensure that the patient is happy with the result for their mouth.

Patient did not like the appearance of the crowns on her front teeth. She felt they were too yellow and bulky. Her old crowns were made of porcelain fused onto metal, a material that is very reliable, yet can be unaesthetic as the underlying opaque metal doesn’t fully allow for light transmission and the replication of the natural opalescent properties of tooth structure. The new crowns were made of porcelain fused to ceramic, a durable and more aesthetic material

Patient had an old amalgam filling. Amalgam has metal content which, as a metal, can expand and contract over time. This movement can press against the remaining tooth structure, which if thin, can crack off. This is precisely what happen in his case. His treatment options consisted of an onlay or crown (made in the lab) or bonding done directly in the office. He elected for the bonding, which is a direct and more economical way to replace tooth structure and make the tooth whole again.

Patient was missing her lateral Incisor (side front tooth). After completing orthodontics to create more space for a tooth, she had an implant placed by an oral surgeon. From there, the area was restored with a zirconia (ceramic) abutment and a porcelain fused to ceramic crown. Great attention was placed on aesthetics as this is right in her smile line. Just like you would see with a natural tooth, we wanted it to appear that the tooth was growing right out of the gum line and not too bulky or too narrow or at the wrong angle.

This patient lost many of her upper teeth when young relating to poor dental care received. She has been wearing partial dentures since her 20’s. Tooth loss is followed by bone loss. Thin jaw bones makes it more difficult to secure a denture in place. Plus, to have dentures that you place in and out of your mouth is a less desired option. She saw an oral surgeon for bone grafting to build back up her jaw bone ridge. Her treatment next consisted of implants placed by the oral surgeon. Over the implants a porcelain and metal structure was affixed that replicated the missing teeth and also the missing gum tissue.

Patient had a pre-existing upper bridge that had decay under one of the teeth. Unfortunately, because all the teeth are connected in a bridge, when there is a problem with one tooth, typically the entire bridge needs to be replaced. So while that was not good news for the patient, there was the silver lining in that she could have her unaesthetic bridge replaced.

Patient was noticing that her front tooth was shifting. In addition, she was developing a “black triangle”. Normally there is a pink triangle of gum tissue between teeth called a papilla. When there is a decrease/loss in bone support, the papilla shrinks and a black triangle results. Her bone loss was such that the adjacent tooth was beginning to become compromised. With an eye to the future, we did not want her to end up losing two teeth. So we planned to prophylactically extract the “bad” tooth so that it would not continue to bring/drag down the bone on its neighboring tooth. In addition, we sought to understand why someone with good hygiene would experience bone loss considering that poor hygiene is the typical cause for bone loss. In her case her occlusion was not ideal in that her lower tooth was enacting trauma on the upper tooth and banging into it. The bone was the weaker link and it was “giving”. After seeing an orthodontist to address the occlusion/bite issue, she then saw a periodontist for the extraction and an implant placement. And then, finally, we restored her implant with a crown. This case reflects the long term planning and coordination with specialists needed to achieve an excellent result.

Patient had bone loss (resulting in poor periodontal support) around her front teeth. Less bone “grabbing” the tooth meant the teeth were mobile. In addition, the roots of her teeth were exposed. This softer part of the tooth ended up notching. This was the perfect set up for the crown of her tooth to snap off. The decision then became do we replace the one broken tooth and worry about any inevitable problems later or think to the future and use this as an opportunity to correct everything in one fell swoop. We elected the later. Her remaining front teeth were then extracted. She had 4 implants placed on which two separate bridges were placed. This allowed her to keep her “signature” gap between her front teeth. Although, losing her two front teeth was psychologically a big adjustment, she is now happier than ever with her new smile and reports many compliments.

Patient has a conspicuous front crown. She was interested in replacing it. She also has peg laterals (small side front teeth). If you are ever considering work on your front teeth, it is advisable to have all the teeth in question treated at once as you can match the shape and color together. The peg laterals did not bother her too much, but she was curious to see how they could be improved. Preview is an option where a mold is created off an idealized wax rendering of your teeth. A provisional temporary is then created utilizing that mold. In essence, you get to preview your results without committing to treatment. At the end of the visit the provisional is removed so your mouth remains unaltered. This direct visualization in your mouth allows you to make an informed decision.
