Case: 16685 Category: Porcelain Laminates Age: 44 Gender: Female Skin Tone: Medium Description: During a routine re-care appointment, we suggested a way to improve this patient's smile. We made impressions of the upper and lower arches and sent them to the Dental Laboratory. There, they created a "mock-up" or simulation of the ideal set up, with our input. Due to one thing or another, I did not hear back for several months. One day, I receive a phone call." My son's Bar Mitzvah is in 2 Wks., can you finish before that?". Yes, was the answer and since we had the initial materials for Porcelain Laminate construction(our road-map). We were ready to do everything we needed, in 1 visit and deliver the finished product in the second visit. |
After photos were taken 1-4 Weeks after surgery/procedure.

Details: What is unique about these Porcelain Veneers or Porcelain Laminates are that they use the Lumineers principles. These are ultra thin, minimal preparation veneers , done without Novocaine and temporaries. The whole preparation took 20 minutes and the patient left the office. Since we were able to show the patient her smile ahead of time, using the prefabricated see through mold, she was able to feel confident and excited about finishing the porcelain laminate process.The smile makeover of smile creation is all about the little details. How much of the teeth show, their length, the color and the way the teeth fit the face. When the rules of smile design are followed, the result is the creation of porcelain veneers that duplicate natural tooth structure | |

Details: Notice, there are several things going on which detract from the ideal ,aesthetic smile. There are large spaces, dark tooth colors and improper tooth sizes. We were able to balance the restorations with minimal tooth preparation, and without any Novocaine.We lengthened the front teeth about 1mm. and created a beautiful smile. | |

Details: This is a nice view of the preoperative smile on the right side. Again, it shows the difficulties we faced in creating the ideal smile. More notable was the reaction of friends and family. We attended this wonderful event. Not only did this patient receive compliments on her new smile, but we were told that we made her very happy.This came to us from a person near and dear to her, namely, her husband. Porcelain laminates change smiles. They also change lives, by making one proud to smile again.This was one of the most satisfying smile makeovers I have done. | |
