I wanted to let any potential candidates for the porcelain / ceramic crowns that Dr. Spalten recommends, that I am a very satisfied client. My front teeth were discolored and even mismatched due to a front crown that did not yellow with the rest of my teeth. In addition I had some moderate chipping and uneven wearing / grinding to the dentin and even rotating teeth on the bottoms. My teeth were just ugly and were going to cause continued problems in the future.
Even knowing all this, I had chosen for years to stay the course rather than risk having a procedure that made my teeth look brand new, all white and too noticeable. When I finally asked about what could be done Tommy and Jennie suggested laminates to improve the look and to end any future problems with my front teeth. I was still very hesitant and reluctant but Tommy took the time to show me actual pictures of what the before and his proposed after would look like... then I really realized how much I needed the procedure.
After another reassuring consultation where Tommy assured me that he would produce teeth with a very realistic translucent color, customized for my mouth and not the "Chiclets" look I was so concerned about, I decided to move forward. Tommy came through as promised. My teeth look so natural that some people thought I had changed my looks somehow, someway but did not even ask about my teeth. Tommy is such a perfectionist that he asked to change one tooth that he thought had changed colors slightly, even though I was ready to live with the very subtle color difference.
After a few tweaks with the bite and the tooth change, I am a very satisfied and ardent promoter of the job Tommy and his staff have done for me and as the saying goes "I wonder what took me so long to get this done"!
Thanks again,
