We were very happy to help Linda. She had gone a long time without proper dental treatment, and was used to the resulting discomfort. The care provided by Dr. McBride was part of an overall life change by Linda that has made her a much happier and healthier person.

After receiving our care, Linda was so happy that she wrote a testimonial that perfectly describes what we do. Please take a moment to read it.

Bernie was extremely frightened of the dentist from some horrendous early experiences. After a number of "get togethers" or consultations, we decided upon a plan for a full mouth rejuvenation. All porcelain, her dentistry is serving her well after ten years.

Bernie's testimonial really shows how well-done dentistry can help transform a person's life.

Here's a guy that loves to smile. His teeth had worn considerably, due to an "off-bite", which caused his teeth to wear abnormally. All of his teeth were treated "Bioesthetically" to regain complete function and natural aesthetics. These smiles display his front porcelain veneers.

Beyn has written a testimonial to let others know about the great service he received from us.

This young lady had an eating disorder that attacked her teeth violently and took away all beauty and function. Frequent regurgitation of food literally ate most all her tooth enamel away.

I took the case on the condition that she would commit to treating the problem, Bulimia Nervosa. The dental problems were secondary to the disease. Besides her second set of previous crowns breaking off at the gumline, the teeth were extremely sensitive to temperature and pressure from chewing.

We completely restored her mouth Bioesthetically with porcelain crowns and much internal treatment on many of the teeth.

The patient's upper left tooth (your right) was fitted with a non-metal reinforced porcelain (Complete Porcelain) crown.

One of the more difficult challenges in dentistry is to successfully match the color of a single front tooth crown to an adjacent uncrowned tooth. Porcelain veneers are the ideal, but if the tooth is crowned already, there is no choice but to provide another crown. The features of a successful esthetic restoration (crown in this case) are:

A) Health of the gum around the crown. This is made possible by proper tooth preparation and accurate impressions that provide an awesome fit. Also, a proper fitting and appearing temporary crown which allows esthetic assessment and development as well as gum health prior to the making of the final crown.

B) Awesome natural color and translucency through excellent, out of the ordinary laboratory technology. The dental laboratory industry, like any other business - profession or trade - typically offers "average", or "usual and customary" products. But, like a Monet or Chardin, there are true artists out there who really "know their stuff" and provide an "out of the ordinary" result. A conscientious, non-insurance driven dentist who has a relationship with one of these rare individuals can provide awesome, undetectable results.

Also, today we have porcelain technology that offers strong porcelain crowns with no metal understructure which, when accompanied by an amazingly good fit at the gumline, contributes to a result such as seen here.

This gentleman had some well-done dentistry performed many years ago. It held up well through the years,but finally it outlived its usefulness.

This case was done with Complete Porcelain crowns and a porcelain veneer.

Julie received six upper front porcelain veneers and a lower right, first bicuspid nonmetal reinforced porcelain (Complete Porcelain) crown.

Julie is very excited about the care she received from us. Please take a moment to read her testimonial.

This pretty young lady had many missing teeth and a mouth full of silver mercury fillings and unaesthetic front crowns. She wanted and waited for the best.

All porcelain crowns and four root replacements with dental implants performed in 1987. It's working well, as the close-up "after" picture was just taken (2004).

Wendy has written a testimonial about her care. Please take a moment to read it.

Sometimes, direct bonding which is done directly to the teeth in the office in one visit works out very nicely. It is a conservative, non-traumatic way to restore teeth which have been traumatized enough already by decay.
