Smile Gallery

Our dental patient has never liked her smile. After a few months with traditional braces our expert dental team was able to place these beautiful veneers in Bloomington, IN.  The veneers are thin porcelain that are bonded to the surface of the tooth. At Ellettsville Dental Center, very little preparation of the tooth is needed and we can control the shape and color of the porcelain veneers to fit the patient's ideal smile. 

At Ellettsville Dental Center, we can combine dental treatments to help you get the smile you have always wanted. For this dental patient, we used a combination of orthodontics, cosmetic crown lengthening, and porcelain veneers in Bloomington, IN. This elated dental patient stated "I am so happy with my new smile."

This dental patient arrived at our dental office in Bloomington, Indiana with severely worn lower teeth and poorly designed upper dental crowns. The dental crowns in Bloomington were replaced and conservative veneers covered the lower teeth. Do you think dental crowns or veneers would benefit your smile?

This dental patient arrived at our Bloomington dental office with a tooth that was likely about to break. Our expert dental team fixed the situation by placing a dental crown before the tooth broke. Through this process, the dental patient was able to avoid losing the tooth. He also avoided needing more expensive dental treatments like a dental implant or root canal therapy in Bloomington, IN.

This dental patient arrived at Ellettsville Dental Center with a silver filling that had a large cavity near it.  To compete the dental treatment a very conservative porcelain Onlay was able to be bonded to the tooth. This dental restoration replaces just the broken portions of the tooth while leaving the healthy part intact. 

At Ellettsville Dental Center, we know dental fillings do not last forever.  It was time to replace this filling and the patient wanted something more esthetic.  A composite filling was used to replace the old tooth.  A composite filling is a tooth-colored resin material that is matched to your tooth. These dental fillings in Bloomington, IN will last nearly as long as a silver filling and do not require as much tooth structure to be removed. 

This is an example of what a cavity looks like in a tooth.  Often the cavity gets larger as it goes into the tooth.  A composite filling can be a conservative way to fill in the cavity and it can be matched to the shade of the tooth. 

This patient was suffering from a cracked tooth.  She had cold sensitivity and could not chew with this tooth.  It was restored with a porcelain restoration to hold the sections of the tooth together.

Our patient was born with some teeth that were too small and others that were discolored.  Once we finished with orthodontics, veneers were placed to give her a beautiful smile. 

This is an example of how functional appliances and braces can straighten teeth without having to pull any adult teeth. 

This young patient developed a crossbite and a functional shift.  To get her teeth to bite together she had to shift her jaw way to the left.  Functional appliances were used to correct the crossbite and allow her chin to be aligned correctly.   She can now continue to grow normally.
 

Our patient had a bad habit of grinding his teeth.  New crowns of a stronger material were made.  He has also been tested for sleep apnea and wears a night time appliance to help breathing and protect his teeth.

Our patient was treated with Invisalign prior to fixing the broken teeth.  One tooth needed a veneer and the other only needed a filling.  

These photos below demonstrate that even after ten years your smile can be beautiful after orthodontics in Bloomington, IN.
