This teenager was socially embarrassed by an unesthetic recent buildup on the left central incisor after having the lower half fractured by a baseball which required root canal treatment. The previous buildup was obvious due to a visible horizontal line, too square, too dark, and too forward at the overly thined biting edge. Stripped all old filling, placed a white post in the root canal to increase retention, and rebuilt with a filling that disappears into the tooth. This tooth will eventually need an all porcelain crown when the patient stops growing and the oral tissues mature. Adjacent teeth look white, due to temporary dehydration during procedure. Color matches lower hydrated teeth which are color correct.

Patient had not seen a dentist in 10 years. Had large wrap-around tooth colored fillings on his front teeth that were discolored, leaky, stained, and poorly contoured with overhangs and fresh cavities (holes). He was thrilled with the upgrade with new composite fillings. No crowns!

This patient disliked the way the space was closed between his teeth by another office years ago. After stripping off the old bonding, new bonding was placed to patient's satisfaction.

Patient hated the black triangle between her lower front teeth. With modern techniques, thanks to Bioclear forms, we can create an aesthetic result without cutting teeth or bonding with more expensive porcelain (4 times the cost). This was a relatively inexpensive procedure.

Patient unhappy with space between teeth. Closeup reveals old worn composite contributing to incomplete closure of space between upper front teeth. Old bonding stripped off and meticulous closure created an ideal result with no black triangles in between. Patient was delighted with the outcome.

This patient did not like the dark space next to the canines caused by the sharp pointy angles of those teeth. After whitening the teeth, some simple cosmetic composite bonding (with no need for local anesthetic) filled in the dark spaces in the smile with a more pleasing contour. Patient loved it!!!
