Cosmetic Dental Restoration

By restoring your smile, you can help restore self-confidence.

As quoted in "Clinical Impressions" studies have shown that:

"appearance constitutes 55% of our first impressions of people. In job interviews, about 75% of the decision to hire is based on the applicant's appearance... there is likely to be an 8-20% variation in entry-level salary based on personal appearance...people who feel attractive tend to be more at ease socially...than people who feel unattractive."

In the images to the right, you can see the stages of cosmetic restoration with new materials that look just like your natural teeth and are just as strong.

Figures 1 through 3 are show the preparation of the broken tooth.  You can see that a severe break can be repaired to an undetectable finish.

In figures 5 through 6 you can see that layers of dentin, then opacious layers are built up with 20-second curing times in between each application.

Figures 7 through 8 show the completion with a fine grit polishing tool being used to finish the new restoration.

In figures 9 through 10, you can see the final luster applied with a superfine-grit polishing disc which achieves a beautiful natural look in one visit.
