Cosmetic Dentistry
is something that many patients find a bit confusing.... Mainly because
dentistry very often misleads them into thinking that there is actually
a specialty area assigned to dentists who are proficient in this area.
Not true... Read on... |

The single
tooth crown is perhaps the hardest restoration to do correctly. You can
usually spot them a mile away. Here is one that I recently completed. |

Sometimes it
is not real clear as to whether or not to use implants or conventional
crown and bridge restorations. Here's one of those situations.... |

My Prosthodontic
Board Case - 1984. This section will showcase conventional dental restorations
which do not use dental implants for support or retention. This first
patient procedure was one that was completed in 1984 and shows just what
you should expect from good dental care... It also shows a current update
of some cosmetic work involving porcelain laminates. |

My firm belief is
that all dentistry should be cosmetically acceptable. There are, however
some dental procedures that are deemed more cosmetic than others. Two
of these procedures are Bonding and Porcelain Laminates. |

Extreme wear of teeth
can lead to a disfiguring smile. The restoration of these situations is
extremely complicated... |

Even when there are
only a few remaining teeth in an arch, there is still a great deal that
can be accomplished without resorting to dental implants... |

This patient had
an almost disfiguring appearance of her teeth. Modern dentistry and a
lot of hard work corrected the problem.... |
