Tag: Smile Makeovers

This patient came into our office unhappy with her smile. She had had a couple of anterior crowns done at another office over ten years ago, and since then was noticing color discrepancies and chipping. So, Dr. Cadwell did a gingivectomy (removed excess gum tissue) and placed four new upper anterior crowns. Both patient and doctor are thrilled with the end result!

Congenitally missing teeth are adult teeth that never formed. As seen in this picture, the lateral incisors are some of the more common teeth that can be congenitally missing. Because this patient had enough bone height and bone width in these areas, they were a candidate for implant surgery.  Here, the teeth were replaced by implants with custom-shaped and custom-colored crowns. The patient's central incisors presented with chips and stains, so patient opted to place veneers. What an incredible difference!

This patient's upper and lower teeth presented with severe acid erosion. We were able to fix the teeth by placing 14 crowns. This not only allows the patient to have a healthier mouth, but also gives them a fresh smile.

This patient hoped for a new smile. In order to accomplish this we performed gum surgery to lengthen his teeth. We then placed 5 new crowns to brighten and fill his smile. 

This patient was experiencing pain in and around his upper left bicuspid. Upon examination, the tooth had been cracked and could not be saved. The patient had the tooth extracted and an implant placed.

This patient presented to our office with a bridge along his upper gum line that was being held on by teeth with deep decay. The bridge was removed and the decayed teeth were extracted. An implant bridge was then placed which gave this patient a whole new smile!
