Porcelain Crowns and Veneers

Procedure: Porcelain crowns and veneers on 4 front teeth

Concern: Traumatic accident requiring restoration of front teeth

Result: Strong, long-lasting restorations that blend harmoniously with the surrounding smile

Following a traumatic accident, this patient needed to restore four front teeth without the result looking like dental work. Porcelain crowns and veneers on the affected teeth produced restorations that are both strong and long-lasting, blending completely with the surrounding smile. Restoring teeth after trauma requires balancing structural integrity with natural appearance. Getting both right is what separates an experienced restorative team from one that simply fits crowns.

Porcelain Veneers

Procedure: Veneers

Concern: Misaligned teeth, narrow arch

Result: A widened smile, more natural appearance that follows the patient's lipline

This patient came in concerned about misaligned teeth and a narrow arch. Porcelain veneers widened the smile and created a more natural appearance that follows her lipline. Reshaping a smile around a patient's specific facial anatomy is critical to create an optimal result.

Veneers and Crowns

Procedure: Veneers and crowns

Concern: Old restorations, discolored teeth, narrow smile, misalignment of teeth

Result: More harmonious smile, more vibrant; smile follows patient's lipline

Old restorations, discoloration, misalignment, and a narrow smile gave this patient a long list of concerns. A combination of veneers and crowns addressed everything in one treatment plan, widening the smile, correcting alignment, and producing a more vibrant and harmonious result. Cases like this require a doctor who understands how individual restorations interact with each other across the full arch. 

Porcelain Veneers

Procedure: Veneers

Concern: Stained and worn down teeth

Result: More vibrant and natural smile, restored function; bite is in a comfortable position where the patient is less likely to wear her teeth down in the future

Years of wear and staining had left this patient's teeth both esthetically and functionally compromised. Porcelain veneers restored a more vibrant, natural-looking smile and corrected her bite to a comfortable position that reduces the risk of further wear over time.

Veneers with Gum Recontouring

Procedure: Veneers with gum recontouring

Concern: Worn down teeth, gummy smile

Result: More natural appearance

Worn down teeth and a gummy smile were this patient's main concerns. Porcelain veneers combined with gum recontouring restored proper proportion and delivered a more natural appearance overall. Cases that involve both tooth structure and gum line require coordinating two different aspects of the smile simultaneously to get the proportions right.

Full Mouth Rehabilitation (veneers, crowns, bridges)

Procedure: Full mouth rehabilitation with veneers, crowns, and bridges

Concern: Unesthetic, misaligned, and discolored teeth

Result: Corrected alignment, whiter, more natural teeth, more confidence overall

This patient came in with misalignment, discoloration, and teeth that simply did not look or feel right. A full mouth rehabilitation using a combination of veneers, crowns, and bridges corrected the alignment and overall health of the smile, producing a result that gave this patient a meaningful confidence boost. Full mouth rehabilitation is among the most technically demanding work in dentistry. It requires a doctor who can plan across every tooth simultaneously, accounting for alignment, function, and esthetics in a single coordinated treatment plan.

Full Mouth Rehabilitation (bite correction)

Procedure: Full mouth rehabilitation to correct the patient's bite and give him a more confident smile

Concern: Small teeth, spaces, discolored teeth

Result: Improved occlusion, improved esthetics

The goal for this patient was twofold: correct his bite and give him a smile he felt confident with. The result was improved occlusion and noticeably better esthetics.

Full Mouth Rehabilitation (worn teeth, bite)

Procedure: Full mouth rehabilitation to correct bite, remove decay, and improve esthetics with veneers and crowns

Concern: Worn down teeth, bite felt uncomfortable, old bulky crowns

Result: More harmonious smile; reversed aging so teeth don't look so worn down

Worn teeth, an uncomfortable bite, and outdated bulky crowns were all affecting this patient's quality of life. Full mouth rehabilitation using veneers and crowns addressed all three, correcting the bite, removing decay, and delivering a more harmonious smile. Worn dentition and bite dysfunction are closely linked. Addressing one without the other can produce results that do not hold up over time. The T-Scan bite analysis technology at Rockefeller Dentistry allows the doctors to measure bite force and timing objectively, contributing to superior results.

Veneers and Bridges

Procedure: Veneers and bridges

Concern: Missing teeth, spacing, discolored teeth

Result: Fuller smile, more natural, improved function

Missing teeth, unwanted spacing, and discoloration were all affecting both the look and function of this patient's smile. Veneers and bridges closed the gaps, improved color, and delivered a fuller, more natural result with function restored alongside esthetics.

All-on-4 Full Mouth Restoration

Procedure: All-on-4 full arch extraction with zirconia restorations screwed into implants, coordinated with an oral surgeon so the patient never leaves without teeth

Concern: Severe decay and severe periodontal disease

Result: Screwed-down prosthetic (not removable); patient was able to restore confidence, comfort, and function

This patient came to us with severe decay and severe periodontal disease. Working hand in hand with an oral surgeon, we performed the All-on-4 procedure, extracting all teeth and placing zirconia restorations screwed into implants. The patient never left without teeth. The result is a screwed-down prosthetic that is not removable, restoring confidence, comfort, and function. Cases of this complexity require close coordination between the restorative dentist and the oral surgeon at every stage of the process.
