Smile enhancement closing multiple space with dental porcelain veneers

August 23, 2008 by ·

Porcelain dental veneers are very conservative restorations to whiten teeth, fill in missing spaces, add length to teeth and to give an overall smile enhancement.  In this video you will see how we made a drastic changes in our patient’s appearance by using only 6 porcelain veneers bonded to her teeth.  We were able to do a tooth lengthening procedure and also closed the spaces with a very light porcelain.  These are long lasting, strong and will not stain.  for a beautiful smile that will last for many years consider having veneers done for your cosmetic enhancement since a smile is the thing most noticed by friends and colleagues.

Overdentures help False Teeth feel like real natural teeth

June 11, 2008 by ·

This is an interview with a patient of Dr. Robert Antolak The Gentle Dentist about her ease of eating and confidence with her overdentue.
Overdentures are for those patients who have either lost their teeth and desire to have a complete denture (false teeth or plate) to act naturally like their own teeth. These dentures fit with a snap fit over special clips that keep them in place until the patient desires to remove them. Either natural tooth roots that have been specially prepaired or dental implants allow the teeth to be secured. When the base of a denture does not move our patient can eat anything she desires. Denture wearers typically can eat with only 15-20% of the force as those who have natural teeth. When dental implants or natural teeth are used to support the denture eating forces can be boosted to about 60% of the force of natural teeth. This allows you to eat most all foods and it also improves self esteem and confidence that the denture will stay in place no matter what happens.
