Cosmetic Case of the Day

This 55 years old patient had broken down, fractured, misaligned teeth. I crowned his front teeth to give him a healthly, younger looking smile.

Chipped teeth of the day

The first two patients I saw today chipped the same front right central incisor biting into a chicken bone. The third one chipped her lower right incisor biting into a sandwich. The last patient grinds his teeth and fractured the edge off his upper left central incisor. I restored each these teeth in about a half hour, for each one, with bonded ceramic composite restorations. Here are the before and after photos taken 30 minutes apart.
