Treatment Plan:
-
This patient has been a lifelong patient of Dr. Benjamin.
When she moved to Washington she vowed to return
to have Dr. Benjamin give her a spectacular smile.
-
Patient was unhappy with short and worn teeth, and knew
that she had to do something when they started to chip at
the edges.
-
Patient was first referred to Dr. Peter Collins,
a world class periodontist in the field of esthetic
alteration of gum tissue so that he could lengthen her
teeth.
-
Dr. Benjamin then placed 10 feldspathic
veneers with minimal alteration to her teeth.
-
She now loves her smile!

Treatment Plan:
- Patient strongly disliked her original teeth and smile
- Adjusted patient's bite
- Placed 8 porcelain 3/4 crowns to close the spaces and reduce the flaring of her teeth
- Required extremely careful planning and design; the results were spectacular
|
|
Treatment Plan:
-
This patient presented to Dr. Benjamin's office three years ago with
all front teeth significantly destroyed by wear created
by two thirty year old bridges in the back of his mouth.
-
Because his teeth were very short, his appearance created
the impression that he was much older than his actual age.
-
An endodontist treated 5 teeth with root canals,
Dr. Collins (periodontist) lengthened his teeth
and placed 3 dental implants, and Dr. Benjamin completely
rehabilitated his mouth back to excellent health.
-
All 28 teeth (including implants) were restored.
-
Patient was thrilled with the results and loved the
fact that he looks 10 years younger with normal sized teeth.
-
Full mouth rehab is the most complex treatment performed
by a restorative dentist. Treatment requires intensive
planning and precise execution in order to have a
successful outcome.

Treatment Plan:
-
Patient had orthodontics (braces) as a teenager and
had suffered a significant relapse in her teeth.
Disappointed in her orthodontic experience, she
did not want braces again.
-
Like many of Dr. Benjamin's patients, this patient came
to him for his acknowledged expertise in esthetic
dentistry. However, most patients have functional
problems with their teeth and that is the reason
that their teeth do not look good. Dr. Benjamin
managed this patient's bite problem and was able
to create an absolutely beautiful result.
When the patient returned for a final check of her
new dentistry she told Dr. Benjamin, "I love my new
smile and it was worth every penny that I spent and
I thank you."

|
Treatment Plan:
-
Twenty-three year old patient suffered from severe
gastric reflux that significantly affected her
upper front teeth.
-
Dr. Benjamin carefully planned out solution to the
problem which included the patient seeing our
periodontist, Dr. Peter Collins to alter her gum tissue
prior to fixing her teeth.
-
The results were spectacular but natural. Dr.
Benjamin believes that beautiful dentistry is
dentistry that does not call attention to itself
but rather enhances the patient's appearance.
|
|
Treatment Plan:
-
Successful, early 30's DJ recognized that he needed to
have a better smile for his self esteem and his career.
-
After Dr. Benjamin performed a cosmetic resin mockup to
demonstrate what the possibilities for improving the
patient's smile, he immediately decided to pursue treatment.
-
Treatment included minor periodontal surgery to raise the
gum tissue and the placement of 8 porcelain veneers.
-
Patient is thrilled with the result and during his DJ jobs,
he is constantly told that he has a beautiful 'million
dollar smile'.
|
|
Treatment Plan:
-
Patient wanted cosmetic dentistry to correct her short
worn teeth. She had visited many dentist'' websites who
advertised 'cosmetic dentistry' as well as interviewing
many local dentists.
-
Patient selected Dr. Benjamin because of his superior
credentials and because he previewed the likely results
using a direct resin mockup at the consultation
appointment.
-
Treatment included the elimination of patient's gummy
smile and the placement of 10 all ceramic crowns.
The results were spectacular.
