Chris
Chris had two very large old porcelain to metal crowns that were too wide for her face, and created a black line at the gumline. She wanted smaller more naturally shaped front teeth without the dark line and brighter and whiter teeth overall. As an architect, she could relate to the concept of “form follows function.” With the use of properly shaped and positioned porcelain crowns and veneers, we were able to give Chris the balanced and whiter smile that she was looking for.
When I was 14, I dove into a swimming pool and broke off my front teeth. The only car my mother had at home was our old Model T Ford convertible. Everyone was smiling and waving at us as we drove to the dentist’s office. I didn’t feel like smiling then and through many different, poorly designed sets of front teeth, I thought I’d never smile with confidence again. Luckily, Dr. Gorman convinced me to try again and the day I got my new teeth, I flew to Oregon to visit old friends. One of the first things they said was what a beautiful smile I had! The change was that fast and that significant. I’ve never regretted making the decision to trust Dr. Gorman with my smile. The quality of care and workmanship has given me the confidence that is well worth the investment.
