Angela Has Her Smile Transformed

Each month, we are happy to share some of our greatest cosmetic dentistry success stories. Most of them have been achieved through a smile makeover, or a treatment which concentrates on the teeth we call the “social 6.” Can you imagine why they have developed that name? These are the pearly whites that show when you eat, speak, and smile — the ones that make the biggest difference in your overall appearance.

Angela, our January Smile of the Month feature, hated the look of her social 6. Years of wear and tear had taken their toll, and she worried about what to her were highly noticeable dental imperfections. This insecurity often caused Angela to put her hand in front of her mouth when she spoke — and she was always the one with her mouth closed in photographs. Does that sound familiar to you, too?

This smile was beautifully transformed when she visited Dr. Allan S. Mohr to discuss whether or not she was eligible for a smile makeover. After a thorough consultation, Dr. Mohr determined that all-porcelain veneers would be just the thing to bring Angela’s smile confidence back. She says she was thrilled at the idea, and was ready to get started right away.

All-Porcelain Veneers: Customized Just for Angela

All-porcelain veneers are customized restorations that cover up the front side of the teeth that show in the smile (those social 6). While some cosmetic dentists take something of a cookie-cutter approach to veneers, not considering the unique attributes that make our smiles special, this is not the case with treatments from Dr. Mohr. He takes real pride in considering the size, shape, and color of veneers that will suit each patient best. In fact, he even creates minor “imperfections” in veneers to give them a lifelike look. This approach ensures that the restorations look beautifully natural — no Hollywood, platinum-white look here!

The treatment took place over the course of just a few visits to Dr. Mohr’s office. And, with proper care, Angela can expect her new smile to last for decades. Today, Angela could not be happier with her new smile. She never hesitates to show off her teeth, and the days when she hid her teeth thankfully seem like a distant memory.
