How do I find a cosmetic dentist who is truly experienced with the art of cosmetic dentistry?
Ask questions and do research.
You should find out how many patients the dentist has treated and how many years he has practiced cosmetic dentistry.
You should ask whether or not the dentist had any formal training in cosmetic dentistry.
Ask to see before-and-after pictures of patients. Make sure the dentist shows pictures of his own patients, not just pictures that he bought by some marketing companies.
I already have veneers, but my smile does not look natural. What are my options?
MANY. Dr. Lasseigne is knowledgeable in smile design and how the whole face interacts with the smile he is creating. He will tell you about the amount of visible tooth that is considered esthetic and how much the lips should be supported by the teeth. He will be able to explain, in detail, what can be done to make your smile look natural.
My teeth look short and my gums show when I smile. What can I do?
To create a harmonious smile, you often have to correct the gum line. Some smiles are too “gummy”. In other smiles, misaligned teeth create uneven gum lines. To correct problems like these, it is not enough to just place “beautiful” porcelain veneers. The relationship of gums and teeth has to be right as well.
How does Dr. Lasseigne know that the lab will make my veneers “right”?
EXPERIENCE. Dr. Lasseigne does not just choose any ceramist to create his restorations. He has established a great relationship with some of the finest and talented technicians in the world.
As part of his practice, Dr. Lasseigne provides detailed information on tooth alignment, brightness, character, incisal effects, etc. Our photographs will go to the lab so that the technician knows without question what he is dealing with. Information will be given about your bite and the relationship of your jaws. Our labs are well-experienced in fabricating cosmetic restorations. For additional details, please go to our services and read about our clinical atlas.
