Smile Gallery: General Dentistry

The Challenge: “M.” was concerned that his teeth had darkened with age. He also was interested in improving the shape of his teeth. “M.” said he did not like the spaces between his teeth and he did not like the side (lateral) teeth. He felt they were too small. “M.” was to officiate a large wedding in one week and we needed a quick resolution to his concerns. The Solution: In a one and a half hour appointment, I bonded composite resin (tooth colored filling material) to each of the four upper front teeth to close the gaps.

In the process ...

The Challenge: "N." was self conscious about the large space between her front teeth. "N." had scheduled her high school Senior pictures to be taken in one week. She wanted a natural looking, easy, fast way to close the gap between her teeth. The Solution: In a one hour appointment, I bonded composite resin (tooth colored filling material) to each of the upper front teeth to close the gap and give "N." the beautiful smile she had always wanted.

The Challenge: "S." was concerned with a badly discolored, chipped upper front tooth. Her request was that we make her "ugly" tooth look like her other front tooth.

These photographs are of actual patients of Dr. Robert W. Boyle and were taken by Dr. Boyle or members of the Clarkson Dental Group staff. The photos have not been retouched or altered in ...

The Challenge: "L." had never liked her smile. She was specifically unhappy with the gaps between her upper front teeth. "L." was to be married soon and she wanted a natural looking, fast, easy way to close the gaps between her teeth. The Solution: In a one and a half hour appointment, I bonded composite resin (tooth colored filling material) to each of the four upper front teeth to close the gaps and give "L." the beautiful smile she had always wanted.

When I showed "L." our result after we had finished, she began to cry. I asked if she was ...
