This man was not happy with his smile.  The spaces between his teeth made his teeth appear too small and the angle of  his front teeth were slightly tilted.  ( First photo) We were able to create a more uniform and masculine smile by crowning 10 upper teeth with EMPRESS crowns.  The key to the success of this case was to first create a “trial smile”  in plastic. (second photo) This way, Dr. Saylor was able to be ultra conservative in his preparation.  And it gave the patient a chance to see what the end result would look like in his mouth, rather on a stone model.  We think the final result is beautiful…and the patient can smile with confidence.before1mock-up1after2
