BEFORE- Jagged Smile
|
This was such a delightful patient to treat. She really wanted to beautify her smile and really fix her upper left canine that was really out of alignment and sticky out. I discussed all her options including the color and she wanted her teeth to be and the shape. Once we decided we went ahead and placed beautiful white porcelain crowns. We chose this option for longevity and strength. In the end we both were more than thrilled and I was very happy to have helped her beautify her smile!

SMILE MAKEOVER |

AFTER-Full Upper Mouth Reconstruction Indicated

AFTER-Restored Function of Teeth and Smile
|
This patient complained that he was biting the roof of his mouth due to his collapsed deep bite. After a few visits we together discovered that he wanted to open his bite to restore his maxillary or upper teeth. This would dramatically improve his smile and more importantly his function or use of his teeth.
I started by putting him in a comfortable upper splint that was waxed to the correct new bite and then a silcone putty index was sent to my custom laboratory.
He wore this soothing splint until we determined what was the most comfortable position for his new bite and at that point we decided to make his new teeth fit this position.
We used beautiful porcelain white crowns and went with full coverage for protection and strength. The patient was thrilled with the results and is now smiling and eating well again.
On a personal note I really enjoyed providing dental care for this patient. It was rewarding to see him come to me in a poor dental condition and watch his amazing transformation or what we could call a "dental miracle."

MICHAEL'S MYSTERY |

Michael came to me with constant intense pain on the left side of his face/mouth. He went to multiple specialists and even went as far to see a neurologist. No one could help him and finally after years of discomfort he came to see me. With some of the newest equipment and testing capabilities I was able to determine the true cause of his pain. Almost instantly after we began treatment Michaels pain vanished! I was so happy to be able to have helped Michael live his life again pain free.

JODY MEDICAL PROBLEM |
|
|
|
|
|
Jody came to me because of severe reaction to her medication she was taking for back pain. She got severe dry mouth which in turn caused rapid and uncontrollable decay though out most of her teeth. This caused havoc on her smile and was very devastating for Jody. Jody and I decided the best course of treatment was to place full coverage crowns on her teeth. We then made Fluoride trays for her to use at home to really combat her dry mouth and decay. As you see Jody smile came out beautiful and we are both thrilled with the results!
