The Patient
Sylvia came in unhappy with a smile that had quietly changed on her over the years. The color had gone flat, a few of the upper teeth had chipped and worn at the edges, and the line of her smile had drifted out of alignment. She wanted something that looked like her, brighter and even, without looking like she had work done.
The Plan
Dr. Patel planned eight porcelain veneers across the upper teeth, the ones that show when Sylvia smiles. Designing them together meant solving three things at once: lifting the color, rebuilding the worn and chipped edges so the teeth were whole again, and straightening the visual line of the smile so everything sat in balance.
The Result
The finished smile is brighter and even, with edges that are whole and a line that finally sits straight. It reads as natural, the kind of result people notice without being able to say exactly what changed.
