This woman wanted to improve the appearance of her teeth and chew properly. She had cavities, tooth wear, and teeth with advanced gum disease. In one day, she was able to have a temporary bridge to replace her lower teeth and bonding to repair her upper teeth. After complete healing a permanent bridge will be placed.

We offer the convenience of having your permanent crown done in one day while you wait. In the past, a tooth like this would need a temporary crown for two weeks that might not match well and may not stay in place predictably. In our office, a tooth like this is no longer a disaster. We can fabricate a life-like, long-lasting crown in less than three hours. This patient was smiling and chewing confidently just a few hours after what seemed like a catastrophic broken tooth.

In the last 15 years, the art and science of dental porcelain has changed dramatically. Gone are the crowns made with a combination of metal and porcelain. These crowns, though an improvement over yellow gold, had problems with discolored edges along the gumline and zero light transmission to mimic the bright, natural appearance of teeth. The advances in material science have made it possible to make teeth with crowns look like natural enamel and the underlying tooth structure. These photos show the difference between the previous generation of materials and what we can offer today.
