My smile is wonderful! That's because Dr. Mirzayan and his staff are so professional - they made my wish come true.

This is a dental smile makeover that involved a crown and three veneers.
The right Central Incisor was lost due to a fracture and was replaced with an implant. After the appropriate healing time, the implant was replaced with a crown and the adjacent teeth were restored with three veneers. The work was performed after bleaching the remaining teeth so the shades of the restorations matched the new color of her teeth.
This is a cosmetic case that fixed concerns about a patient that had porcelain to fused metal crown from a few decades ago. In the past, ceramic restorations were stacked onto a metal substructure. Oftentimes, the metal backing would shine through and give a dark grey look around crowns. Nowadays, we use non-metal base crowns so we can create a much more esthetic smile.
In the photos on the left, you can see this dark hue which is overcome with all ceramic crowns in the “After” photos.
Smile makeover that involved a gum lift, two implants and cosmetic crowns
The patient had severely worn teeth that were very short. Her front two teeth were not restorable and were ultimately lost, but replaced with implants. Her bite was then opened to a “height” that she could tolerate and with a smile that she was thrilled with.
