Procedure:
Orthodontics, Porcelain Veneers
and Gum Contouring
Lynda's modeling
career was not blossoming as she had hoped it would. When Lynda
came for a smile makeover consult she mentioned that in all her
photos she barely smiled. Needless to say she was quite fed up
and wanted a drastic change. Lynda had some bonding done
previously that had darkened and her front teeth were sticking
down and all her teeth had differing shapes and completely
asymmetrical.
Also, Lynda's gum line was uneven which made her teeth look even
more asymmetrical. Lynda's treatment consisted of repositioning
her teeth with orthodontic movement so they don't hang down on
her smile. Then Lynda's gums were recontoured with laser.
Finally, 12 laminates were placed on her upper teeth. Lynda's
treatment took longer than most smile makeover's due to the fact
that her teeth had to initially be repositioned properly for a
successful outcome. Lynda was extremely ecstatic "I am so
unbelievably happy, I never thought this was possible and it was
worth the wait." |
