Smile Evaluation
How do you feel about your smile?
Many people are unhappy with their smile and the impact it has on the image they want to project.
Does your smile match the rest of your image?
• Are you self-conscious about your smile?
• What do other people notice about your smile?
• Do you find yourself not smiling in photos or covering your teeth with your hand or lip?
Face directly into the mirror and smile normally:
• Do you have crooked teeth?
• Do you have any noticeable spaces between your teeth?
• Are you missing any of your teeth?
• Are your teeth discolored?
• Do your front teeth have plastic fillings that have discolored?
• Does your smile seem narrow or stop at just the front six teeth?
• Do the teeth look short or worn flat?
• Do your back teeth that show look gray or black because of silver-mercury fillings? Do you feel like you show too much gum when you smile?
• Are your gums a healthy pink, or are they red and puffy?

Create Your Smile
Cosmetic treatments such as veneers allow you to choose the smile you want. Below are some of the possibilities of shapes of teeth that are available. In addition to the shape of the restorations you will have input into the length, the shape of the gumline and of course a range of color selections.
Test Drive Your New Smile
Committing to a smile makeover is a major decision-emotionally and financially. We never want to proceed with treatment until you are comfortable with the expected outcome. Since most procedures are irreversible we want to have your confident prior and during treatment.
There are several ways to try before you buy. First and foremost is developing a person one to one relationship. Every case is unique as is every guest we are privileged to treat.
We will begin with models of your teeth along with several photographs of your teeth, smile, face and profile. After we have had time to evaluate and analyze this information, we will meet with you. We will not only share our finding, but come to an understanding of your goals, dreams and expectations. This is where the design process is formulated.
We will show you actual cases we have successfully treated, similar to yours. In some cases we will prepare a wax up of proposed treatment. We do this to insure we can accomplish what your goal entails and it will also give you another visual perspective.
We can also do a mock-up with direct resin (bonding). We apply it directly to your teeth and this allows you to see yourself with the changes, take photos and get feedback.
When you proceed with ceramic restoration, you will wear tooth colored temporaries, which closely look and function like the real thing. It is a critical step to get results you are really happy with. You get to live with your new teeth for three weeks and see what you like and do not like. This allows us to make the appropriate changes to insure your satisfaction.
