What a difference a Brooklyn smile makeover can make.

These images tell the story. This patient has severe periodontal disease and is losing his 2 central incisors. The snail makeover involved a multi-step procedure that both restored dental health and produced an aesthetically pleasing smile.

Dr. Langer notes that smile makeovers not only help the patient to look and feel great, but also it will also correct any occlusal discrepancies (the way our teeth meet).  This will prevent further wear or breakage of our natural teeth and keep our teeth in a more harmonious and healthy situation.

Brooklyn smile makeovers are also the ideal solution for “hopeless” teeth that cannot be restored due to severe bone loss, severe decay, large infections, fractures, or poor misalignment.

An important part of the procedure involves abutments, which are the “post and core” that is screwed into the implant.  the crown is than cemented over it.

Dental implants are an important component in achieving the overall desired effect that is wanted by both the patient and his Brooklyn dentist.

Why Smile Makeovers?

Smile makeover experts like Dr. Langer know the value a Brooklyn smile makeover provides: renewed self-esteem, improved self-confidence and a pride in one’s appearance that exudes an attractive personality.

Now a beautiful smile is as close as a visit to a Brooklyn dental office. Starting with a good dental foundation of healthy teeth and gums, they can perfect your smile with many common practices. Some of these techniques include: porcelain restorations, veneers, whitening, and other state-of-the-art treatments.

Dr. Langer places a great deal of emphasis on continuing education programs to further enhance his skills.  This includes courses at the Dawson Academy, and with Frank Spears, as well as some of the most well known clinicians in the country, such as Dr. Rosenthal, Dr. Nas, Dr. Lerner and many others.  He is also a member of the Academy of Osseointergration, which keeps abreast with the latest techniques and procedures involving implants.

Smile makeovers are one of the quickest & easiest ways you can boost your self-confidence. It’s well known that folk who are content with their smile will smile much more. One thing that people often fail to comprehend is that your smile is one of the primary things people become aware of about you. In fact, it is a chief factor in the first impression you depart on someone. It will clue them in as to whether you are happy, confident, or shy.

The question is – how do you get a dazzling white life-shifting smile? The answer is to get a “smile makeover”. A smile makeover can consist of one or more cosmetic dental treatments depending on the level of work your teeth require. Cosmetic dental procedures should not be carried out if you have any problems, such as cavities, which require restorative dentistry.

Dr. Langer summarizes some of a few of the options accessible to those looking to regain a confident and healthy smile.

Porcelain veneers – veneers offer the most dramatic change to your smile, so if you’re really looking for the wow-factor, this may be the answer for you! A veneer is made up of a porcelain shell that is bonded to your own natural tooth. They can last fifteen years or more and are defiant to staining. If you are looking to get veneers to improve your smile, expect that it will take about two visits that will be seven to ten days apart. Like with many dental dealings, you should also plan a follow up.

Crowns – here a crown, molded to the shape of your tooth, is placed over to restore shape and functionality. Also known as caps they are used to strengthen and protect weakened teeth. Although less expensive than veneers, they can provide massive enhancements but are not as permanent.

Implants – if you have missing teeth or one that needs replacing because of decay, disease or age, you would use an implant. These are long-term alternative to dentures or fixed bridges but are also expensive, as the dentist will have to create a bespoke tooth.

Teeth whitening – If you are happy with the figure and positioning of your teeth now, but are unhappy with the colour, teeth whitening could be the best choice for you.
