Crown build-up and crown to save a broken down tooth
This patient was told by his dentist that his lower front broken incisor tooth could not be saved, and only option was to extract it. He came to me for a 2nd opinion. This is how I saved his tooth:
Dental implants to replace missing lower teeth
This patient had spaces between her lower teeth that could not be corrected with orthodontics. So I fixed her spaces with dental implants.

3D Computerized Digital Intra-oral Impression Scanning
I use the state-of-the-art, most advanced, 3Shape Trios digital scanner. This eliminates the need for unpleasant traditional gooey impressions—no more messy goop in your mouth! With our computerized digital 3D scanner, we can digitally capture a detailed, 3D model of your teeth and gums. Not only is our digital scan far more comfortable than the old putty-based impressions, but it’s faster and provides images that are more precise. We definitely make a great first impression.
With this computerized model of your mouth we can computer design your teeth restorations and orthodontic aligners and 3D print them out. Totally awesome!!!

Professional results—in about an hour
For a brighter, whiter smile I offer an in office activated whitening treatment that offers results in 1 hour. It’s ideal for people who want instant whitening gratification, or those who have that special event coming up that requires a bright, white smile.
- The tooth whitening gel contains PF (potassium nitrate and fluoride), which helps maintain the health of enamel throughout the whitening process.
- Chemically activated, so no hot, uncomfortable light is needed
- Dentist-applied treatment
- Provides dramatic results in one hourhttps://youtu.be/evGjcfaIT2Y
