Over time, old porcelain veneers can lose their luster and break down over time causing staining and harmful affects to the underlying tooth and gums.  We swapped out the old with new beautifully contoured veneers and look at her smile now!  From dull and lifeless to a youthful, bright, and vibrant smile!

Implants are the gold standard for replacing missing teeth.  

Not only is the implant surgery important, a skilled dentist is essential when it comes time to restoring the implant. 

An implant is restored with 2 components: the abutment and crown. 

When Dr. Venuti restored this implant, he took into consideration the shape of the gum tissue, bone level, size, shape, and color of the tooth in order to create a seamless and realistic result.  Even missing one of these fundamentals can lead to "fake" or "chiclet" looking teeth.  

Our patient was thrilled with the result!  His friends and family couldn't even tell which one ...

Just repairing a single front tooth can be very tricky. 

Our patient had been suffering from a broken front tooth that had been filled multiple times with tooth colored fillings.  Every time she ate, she was self conscious and nervous about biting down and chipping her fillings again.  She wanted a more permanent solution and so with meticulous technique and seamless communication with the lab technician, we were able to match her single veneer perfectly to her natural tooth!  

Oh the dreaded white spots!  

White spots on the teeth are due to the breakdown of enamel commonly seen in those who have had braces.  Until recently the only solution was to drill the tooth and place veneer or bondings.  We now have a much more conservative way to treat white spots WITHOUT drilling and without anesthesia (novocaine).  ICON is a resin that fills and reinforces broken down enamel in quick a 30 minute visit!  Depending on the severity, more than one session may be needed to achieve desired results.  

Below is the results from just one visit.  

Our young patient suffered from Enamel Hypoplasia - a condition in which the outer layer of the tooth weakens and discolors.  Typically, the staining worsens with time and more conservative methods of removing the discoloration (such as ICON resin infiltration system or tooth whitening) are not strong enough to break through the damage. 

We treated him with a single veneer using meticulous color and characterization matching so it blended in seamlessly with his other teeth.  Can you tell which one is the veneer by just looking at the "after" photo???

It took 5 attempts to get our patient to smile for her "before" photo.  She had grown so accustomed to smiling without showing teeth because she was self-conscious about her smile. 

The discoloration, chipping around the edges, and the recession along the gum-line had affected her confidence for years.  2 short visits later, she left grinning ear-to-ear with her new smile which was achieved with just two veneers on her two front teeth.  She says her only regret was not coming to see us earlier!
