Cosmetic Dentistry - Dental Crown & Veneers

Smile of the Month

January 2021

Laurynn’s story is a prime example of how the smallest changes to the teeth can make a huge overall difference to the smile. She was unhappy with her slightly crooked teeth, but she didn’t want to commit to spending a year or more in braces. What complicated matters was that she had a crown on one of her front teeth as well.

For patients in Laurynn’s situation, who want to correct minor crookedness without getting braces, the ideal solution is usually veneers. This treatment covers the teeth with an eggshell-thin piece of dental porcelain. Veneers can be shaped and positioned in such a way that misaligned teeth can appear straight, which is why many dentists refer to them as “instant orthodontics.”

When Laurynn met Dr. Mohr, he knew that veneers would be perfect for her — as well as replacing her misaligned crown — and, he was able to show her what she would look like after the treatment using a digital mock-up. Laurynn loved what she saw, and over the course of just two appointments, Dr. Mohr designed and placed her veneers. All in all, the entire process took about two weeks, which is multiple times faster than the 12-24 months most orthodontic procedures require.

For Laurynn, she couldn’t be happier with her result, and she was thrilled with how the entire experience went:

"Dr. Mohr is an excellent dentist! His staff is impeccable. I appreciated having Rosie and Nikki by my side while I had 4 veneers put in. The procedure was easy, and Dr. Mohr was very thorough and patient. The entire staff is amazing and very personable. I highly recommend Dr. Mohr. He will absolutely be our regular dentist for myself and my husband."
