The benefits of advanced laser, aesthetic and neuromuscular dentistry are exquisitely evident in Kay's transformation. Notice how relaxed yet full her smile is now. This is why many people think a facelift has been performed. This result is actually achieved by relaxing the facial muscles and opening the bite using the latest scientific and computerized methods. Dr. White enhances smile alignment by performing comprehensive, natural tooth-conserving restorations and properly positioning the jaw, which can be displaced for various reasons.

Dr. White takes many elements into account before he begins treatment: health, facial muscle tension, jaw and tooth function and artistic balance. "If I focused only on teeth, my patients would not see or feel long term benefits. It is very important to consider how muscle tension, gum tissue display, and facial and tooth proportion can affect results: health, beauty and otherwise." Kay's smile was artistically enhanced with porcelain veneers and by contouring her gum tissue with gentle laser therapy.

Kay is amazed at all the changes compared to her last try at cosmetic dentistry. Coming to Dr. White has changed her perspective on what's possible. While she has only completed the first phase of her treatment, she is already benefiting as you can see. In this phase, completed in three morning visits, all her upper teeth were restored in ideal relationship with her lower teeth. Many patients prefer to complete all their care as quickly as possible, often in one or two visits. Others like Kay, when it is clinically feasible, can achieve their smile goals in phases if they prefer.

In the final phase of her treatment, Kay will have a smile that will stay beautiful and functionally harmonious for many years to come. Comfort never looked so good! If you are looking for a solution that provides you with everything you deserve, please email or call us - 423-894-5725.
