A Mature Woman Looks 10 years Younger with Smile Makeover and Porcelain Veneers

Martha is a lady who takes great pride in her appearance. She has worked hard over the years to be healthy and always look her best. Unfortunately Martha's smile hadn't kept up with the rest of her. Her teeth got progressively darker, had worn and shifted, leaving a gap between her front two teeth. She had one crown placed by her family dentist a few years earlier, but she expressed "it doesn't match my other teeth at all!".

Martha's teeth and smile were not reflective of the rest of her appearance and how well she took care of herself

She came to Dr. Huefner to discuss her options with cosmetic dentistry and she was very precise in listing all of the things about her teeth that she didn't like: 1) the dark color 2) her pointed cuspids (which she called her "fangs") 3) the mismatched cap on her front tooth 4) the space between her front teeth 5) the old mercury fillings that made her side teeth appear black.

After analyzing her teeth and smile, Martha decided on having Dr. Huefner replace the old porcelain-metal crown with an all-ceramic crown, and then having porcelain veneers on the rest of her visible upper teeth.

Beautiful smile created for Martha, taking years off of her face

As is obvious from the photo above, Martha's new smile with cosmetic dentistry turned out great! She was extremely pleased with the results and the efforts of Dr. Huefner's artistry.

Sensational Smile with Porcelain Veneers and a Ceramic Bridge by Dr. Huefner

Not happy with her teeth and smile, Uliana wanted to know what options cosmetic dentistry might have for her. Her teeth were very discolored and wearing down on the edges. She also had a crossbite on one side and didn't like the way her porcelain-to-metal crowns and bridge looked.
BEFORE
We recommended porcelain veneers on her front teeth and replacement of her old crowns and bridges with all-ceramic porcelain crowns (non-metal based) and porcelain bridge. She wanted to be involved in the design of the shape and length of her "new teeth" and was particularly concerned about achieving a full smile. The results we achieved for her were sensational!
AFTER

Then a few weeks later we took her post treatment portraits right in our "sensational smiles studio". As you can clearly see, she was very happy with her cosmetic dentistry and porcelain veneers. One of these portraits that we took will be entered in the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry annual Smile Gallery competition. Wish us luck!
