Failing Porcelain Veneers - Part 1
This patient came to see us concerned about the appearance of her 10+ year old porcelain veneers. She did not like the shape or color. Note the staining around the edges. This is a pretty realistic example of what cosmetic dentistry looked like in days gone by. Can't wait to get this case treated and see how beautiful we can make her smile! CLICK PHOTO TO SEE MORE...

Failing Porcelain Veneers - Part 2
OK... so we got the case treated and got her in temporaries. She is already so much happier just having the temporaries on! Upper lip is just a little puffy still, but quite normal for a day after the procedure. Check back for the final result soon. CLICK PHOTO TO ENLARGE...

Great Smile Makeover
Here's another awesome smile makeover case that we are looking forward to treating! With every smile makeover case, we take a series of digital photographs and do a "digital smile preview" to show that patient a simulation of what they will look like with a new smile. With the patient's approval of the preview, we move forward with a diagnostic waxup. CLICK TO SEE MORE PHOTOS
Great Smile Makeover - Part 2
So we are ready to take the next step and get this case started. We had the patient come back for the preparation appointment. At this appointment, we had her approved the diagnostic waxup, which is a simulation on the final result done on a model of her teeth. We did the prep work on her teeth which involved some light sanding and roughening of the enamel surface. We then took impressions of the teeth and placed temporary veneers. We had her come back a few days later to check size, shape, length and alignment of the temporaries.

Another fun case to see...
Cosmetic Dentistry in Charlotte NC is not always the 'big' stuff. We do lots of small cases too that can have a really big impact on a smile! This case will involve just 2 porcelain veneers on the upper front teeth.

Never too old for a new smile!
Well, you are never too old for a smile makeover! This sweet little lady drove 2 hours to see us. She told me that she wanted her teeth fixed for the last time, and that she did not want teeth that went in a jar at night! I think we can help! We planned for a full mouth reconstruction with porcelain veneers, porcelain crowns and bridges. She's ready to start, so check back soon.....

Never too old for a new smile!..Pt. 2
And just like that we are finished. 5 root canals and 24 porcelain crowns later, she looks 20 years younger! Best part is...no dentures. We were proud to have been able to help Mrs. Taylor. She must have driven by hundreds of other dentists to get to our office? She now has the confidence to smile and eat again without worrying about tooth pain or breaking a tooth.
