The patient had porcelain tooth veneers and noticed craze lines or small cracks on her two maxillary canines. The patient was previously informed that she should wear a bite plate in order to prevent fracture of the veneers (since she was a grinder) but the patient declined. Alginate impressions and photos were taken. The veneers on the maxillary canines were carefully removed and the teeth were cleaned. Impressions were taken and sent to the lab to fabricate new veneers for this case. The patient was concerned about how the temporaries would look and if they would be the right shade. Temporaries were made with Luxatemp directly added to the facial surface of the canines. The patient was satisfied with the shade and shape of the temporaries. Her new veneers will be completed and inserted in 5 days.

Thank you so much. Your dentistry has made me the happiest person alive! My smile was worth the trip from Europe!
Lots of Hugs and Kisses, J.B.

My dentist is awesome! I’m a Broadway actor and my smile is my living. Dr. D bleached my teeth, then used “bonding material” to close several gaps and change the shape of my smile. Now I look like a Hollywood star. Thanks Dr. D!

Thank you for the great kindness you have shown me this past year. It is always a pleasure to get my dentistry done in your office. Plus thank you to your staff, they are always courteous and professional.

The hygienist at your dental office is wonderful! She never leaves my mouth sore and bleeding like some places I’ve been. She is exceptionally gentle during cleanings, yet always leaves my teeth and gums incredibly clean. Thank you.

Porcelain Veneers in Cosmetic Dentistry are typically only about 1 millimeter thick (the thickness of several pieces of paper).  Therefore, minimal tooth structure is removed for their placement.  The results can be quite dramatic.

I have wanted porcelain veneers for the past few years.  Dr. Dorfman and his lab techs made gorgeous veneers.  I am very happy with them.

The space between my upper teeth really bothered me.  Another dentist suggested I get ten porcelain veneers but it seemed like too much dentistry.  Dr. Dorfman offered a second opinion that made a lot more sense.  I am quite happy!|

Dr. Dorfman is gentle and funny.  That made me feel a lot better about my dental anxiety.  The dental work that the office performed was convenient because all the specialists I needed were in the office.  The cost of my dentistry was on the expensive side but I feel I received significant value.  I recommend this dental practice very highly.

I went to the dentist for a significant cosmetic problem that I had been reluctant to fix for a long time because I was afraid.  Dr. Dorfman and his staff made me feel comfortable immediately and kept me comfortable throughout my treatment.  The dentistry with Dr. Dorfman and the other specialists in the office was completed more quickly than I had expected.  I love my new smile!
