Porcelain Veneer DentistryPorcelain Veneers and recent advancements in dental bonding technology have had a dramatic impact on dentistry. Skilled dentists now have the capability have dramatically changing and improving a patient's smile and aesthetic appearance
In the adjacent photo it can be seen that this patient had teeth that were too small for the size of her jaw. She had spaces between her teeth and didn't feel comfortable with her smile (see closeups below for more detail).Her teeth were already laser whitened by Dr. Sam Muslin, but there was something more that she wanted. Natural Whitest of White TeethThe patient was a "practical-minded" person. She was not one to get carried away with her make-up and was not interested in the artificial appearance of some of the "hollywood style" makeovers. She simply wanted a bright smile that looked natural. Most importantly she did not want to damage or alter her natural teeth in the process.Precision Porcelain CeramicsMany dentists use porcelain veneers that oftentimes requires a reshaping of the original tooth. This apparent "requirement" may be a reflection of the quality of the ceramic material and the skills of the ceramist.... and moreover... of the dentist.A big advantage that Dr. Sam Muslin has over most dentists is that he has his own ceramist that does all of his work. Together they customized their work that may not be considered possible in other offices. 
In this case, a total of 10 porcelain veneers were hand crafted and skillfully applied for the upper teeth without grinding or drilling on one single tooth!All of her porcelain veneers were made to fit her teeth without altering anything. It was very difficult, but her care was delivered flawlessly. This level and quality of precision ceramics is an important quality to assess when selecting a dentist. The patient's lower teeth did not need veneers so they are completely natural. The 10 upper front or (anterior) teeth have porcelain veneers and the color match between porcelain upper and natural lower teeth is perfect! Porcelain Veneers + Precise Teeth WhiteningIn the close up pictures below it can be seen that the patient already had her teeth laser whitened. It is important to get your natural teeth whitened first and then do the porcelain veneers.You can see that her teeth have a clean, healthy white smile and bright smile appearance. Gum symmetry is perfect and balanced, which was addressed during the time the veneers were placed. Laser whitening, plasma arc whitening or Zoom teeth whitening are effective methods of getting a smile to the level of whitening that the patient wants. In Dr. Muslin's office, the teeth whitening procedure is customized for color quality and intensity issues, depending on the existing color characteristics of the patient's teeth. Just one system cannot meet all of the color problems among the patient's. Customized teeth whitening is superior and a standard feature in Dr. Muslin's practice.
