Uneven or misshapen teeth can make you feel insecure about your smile. This patient came to us wanting to improve his smile. He was missing some permanent teeth in the front, which left large gaps between his teeth.

You can bet that he and his family were very happy to see the final results.
Often times dental work needs to be redone after a while due to changes in your oral health or wear and tear of the dental restorations. After many years of service, this patient's crowns were showing signs of wear. His original crowns were done to mask the discolorations of his front teeth. His gums and teeth had shifted over the years and it was time for replacement. Dr. Kim and the patient decided to crown 6 teeth in the front for the best result. The patient couldn't be happier with his new smile.
This patient had an old set of full dentures that were worn down and discolored, aging his smile significantly. Dr. Kim was able to make him a pair that fit him perfectly and allowed him to have more confidence in his smile. Most of all, the new dentures made him look years younger than his older set did. Custom dentures can give you a natural, youthful smile while allowing you to eat with comfort.

Dr. Kim took a custom shade to give her a perfectly matched implant-supported tooth that looks and feels like her own.
Sometimes worsening gum disease can lead to loss of teeth. While there are several options available to replace missing teeth, including dentures and implants, this patient did not want dentures.

The patient was thrilled that she could eat normally again without worrying about her loose teeth.

Dental bondings are an affordable option to improve the shape and color of your front teeth. This young lady asked Dr. Kim if there was anything that could be done about the dark spots on her front teeth under a tight budget. Her permanent teeth came in with dark spots and striations that the patient was not happy about. Dental bondings were done by another dentist, but they did not blend in with the rest of her teeth.

He was thrilled with the results and now has a winning smile!
Going to the dentist for me can be extremely overwhelming. I am so happy to have found Pinebrook. I cannot recommend Dr. Kim and her staff enough. Karen at reception was extremely welcoming, Neve the dental assistant was very sweet and fun to chat with, and Dr. Kim was beyond kind and understanding. She explained everything I needed done and how we can go about it to ease my anxiety. I know my family has found a great dentist so close to home.
