Will Composite Bonding Work for Me or Do I Need Veneers?
Consider What Exactly Bothers You…

You do have several options for your smile. I always start my consultation with the question… What bothers you the most about your smile? Bonding and/or veneers will change size, shape, and color of your teeth in your smile line. Both could actually be very conservative as mentioned. Both procedures could be completed in 1 visit. Cost difference is about double between bonding and veneers. However, bonding will change color over time and will need to be…
I Had a Veneer Placed Yesterday and There is a Gap at the Gum Line. Will the Gum Fill in the Space?

Well this procedure is very common with peg (small) laterals. Bonding is often used when the patient is younger giving the face time to mature with the size of the patients adult teeth.

I would remake the veneer for proper fit and aesthetics.

Emax Porcelain Onlay Okay to Adjust Chairside By Dentist?
An Ideal Bite is a Must When Placing any Porcelain Restoration
Oct 31, 2012
Oct 31, 2012
Adjusting emax porcelain is very normal both chair side and in the mouth. Emax is a very durable and strong porcelain material that also has a very natural appearance. An ideal bite as mentioned above is the most important factor when seating a permanent porcelain restoration. Your dentist will often have your “bite” on little blue sheets of paper, equilibrating paper. The blue paper will leave marks on your teeth allowing the dentist to know exactly where he/she…
