Subject #144: Female Patient
Procedure: Tetracycline Stains - The deep interior stains caused by the
antibiotic, tetracycline, can’t be erased with any amount of good brushing and
flossing. This can be very embarrassing and even depressing to those people who are living
with this common problem. Fortunately there is a wonderful solution: the artistic
application of beautiful, jewel like porcelain veneers. Since the dark stains are actually
"inside" the tooth structure, Dr. Brace chose to carefully color the tooth
underneath the porcelain so that the combined effect of the tooth color showing through
the porcelain, resulted in a beautiful, translucent, living smile look - instead of just a
lighter shade of dull.
