Brookside Dental’s Blog

I just posted an article on Bellevue Dentist extreme makeover smiles on my other blog.

BELLEVUE COSMETIC DENTIST SLIDE SHOW

The Bellevue Dentists at Brookside Dental are always looking for better ways to serve our patients and friends. Recently, we put together a short two minute Bellevue Cosmetic Dentistry Slide Video Collage of some of our recent Cosmetic Dental patients. We are very proud of the work that we have done and the many smiles that we have enhanced. The video represents a sampling of many types of work performed to create or enhance smiles. Each person shown in the video has had different types of Cosmetic Dentistry work performed to give the beautiful end results exhibited in each situation. The work includes extensive restoration with all porcelain crowns and porcelain veneers as well as tooth colored fillings and tooth colored dental bonding. Several cases involve cosmetic movement of a few teeth to give perfectly aligned smiles. Most cosmetic dental smile alterations and creations involve some type of tooth whitening in addition to the other cosmetic dentistry work that is done.

BELLEVUE COSMETIC DENTISTRY WORKS FOR MEN THE SAME AS WOMEN

Like the handsome men in the five photographs below, men in general are able to acquire significantly attractive smiles with various Cosmetic Dentistry procedures. In addition to the increased physical attractiveness resulting from Cosmetic Dental work, men with an outgoing personality are going to become even more outgoing after their smiles are altered or changed. They will, like women, most likely have better personal lives and better work opportunities subsequent to having cosmetic dental work done. In some cases only minor alterations need to be performed, such as tooth whitening, while in other cases an extreme makeover is needed with multiple procedures being involved.

Most articles and advertisements related to Cosmetic Dentistry show photographs of beautiful women. The reason for this is two-fold. First, all women want to look beautiful and younger. Just look at all of the nutrition, exercise, hair and cosmetics advertisements that tell women how to be slim and beautiful. Cosmetic surgery advertisements are primarily aimed at women. Therefore, is it any wonder that Cosmetic Dentists resort to the same thing in their advertising and on their websites, which is displaying beautiful smiles that have been created for women. These stunning smiles are one of the first things that people see on a person. Second, all men enjoy looking at beautiful women. Again, it is the beautiful and stunning smiles that are one of initial attractions for men and one of the major influences on how attractive a women’s face is perceived by men. If you look at the trade magazines for the dental field, they also exhibit beautiful smiles on women for the most part.

Recently, more and more men of all ages are having cosmetic surgery performed such as hair transplants, face lifts and tummy tucks. Like women, men also want to look handsome and more youthful. Therefore, it is not suprising that many men are having Cosmetic Dentistry work done in an effort to look better. Women and men both want to be more successful at work and in their personal life. In an earlier blog post, I discussed some surveys that indicated that attractive people have more success in life and business than other people.

I thought it would be interesting to show you some photos of men that have had beautiful Cosmetic Dental work done in our office at Brookside Dental in Bellevue, WA. Patients of both Dr Cindy Pauley and Dr Patricia Pauley are represented, and all of the Cosmetic Dentistry that was completed on these men has been done within the last two years. They vary in age, but they all have in common very attractive smiles.

All five of these nice looking men have had their smiles altered significantly by their Cosmetic Dental work here at Brookside Dental in the Seattle, WA, area. In each person’s case, the work has been different. However, they have all had their work result in beautiful smiles. Additional dental information is available on our website that deals with all of the various Cosmetic Dental procedures that were used to create these five handsome smiles.

Bellevue Cosmetic Dentist Closing a Diastema Creates a Beautiful Smile

A Beautiful Smile This Beautiful Smile on this Brookside Dental patient was obtained primarily with a diastema closure of the two upper anterior (front) teeth and along with some other Cosmetic Dentistry work. As cosmetic dentistry procedures go, the closure of a diastema is neither a particularly expensive procedure nor a difficult dental procedure to accomplish. A major benefit of this procedure is that most of the person’s original tooth structure is maintained. In diastema closure, the surrounding teeth may need cosmetic whitening and in some situations it could be necessary to have some dental bonding and composite fillings done as additional cosmetic dental work.

Below is a close-up photo of the above patient’s diastema before any cosmetic dentistry work was done.

Diastema Open Before Cosmetic Dentistry

Below is a close-up photo of the above patient’s Beautiful Smile after diastema was changed with cosmetic dentistry. Additional tooth bleaching and composite fillings were done on this patient to complete their Beautiful Smile makeover.

Diastema closure procedure was performed by Seattle Cosmetic Dentist, Patricia Pauley DDS. Dr Pauley can be reached at Brookside Dental, Bellevue, WA, for more information regarding smile makeovers.

BELLEVUE DENTIST CREATES AN EXTREME MAKEOVER!

In my last blog entry, I wrote about how beautiful people may have an advantage in the business world as well as in life in general. After I finished the article, I remembered at event involving one of the orthodontists to whom we refer some of our ortho patients, to help their overall appearance by straightening their teeth. On Halloween, the orthodontist brought his staff over to our office to share in the fun of that day. The orthodontist (pirate) and his patient coordinator (witch) are flanked by three of our front office people.

An Extreme Makeover
HALLOWEEN VISITORS TO THE DENTAL OFFICE

Upon taking a close up photo of the patient coordinator in her costume, it was apparent that she was in need of a complete and extreme makeover. How would this person do on a job interview? This photo obviously takes the not so beautiful person to an extreme.

WHAT DOES SHE REALLY LOOK LIKE?

However, you are probably somewhat curious as to what she really looks like. Aren’t you? She is actually very beautiful. The magazine “New Beauty” would certainly recommend that at this stage an extreme makeover is in order that would include the eyes, the nose, the chin, the lips and the teeth. Maybe some work on the hair and skin tone also would be in order. So after a quick makeover, she really looks like the photo below.

WOW-What a Difference a Beautiful Smile Makes
THE LOOK AFTER AN EXTREME MAKEOVER!

This person would do very well in a job interview and all because her appearance was changed. Plastic surgeons and Cosmetic Dentists are in the business of making people look better. This in turn increases their self image and self satisfaction, which will have an influence on many aspects of their life.

Cosmetic Dental Bonding

---

Cosmetic Dental Bonding with tooth colored material is a potential way to give you a new smile. You may be considering the enhancing of your smile, but you may have concerns about the more extensive procedures and their cost. Porcelain veneers, porcelain crowns, and crowns on dental implants are the most extensive and expensive of the cosmetic dental procedures. For a person with these concerns, Cosmetic Dental Bonding is the perfect solution!Chipped, cracked, discolored or teeth with spaces and gaps can be embarrassing and can affect your self-esteem and confidence. Inexpensive and conservative, bonding uses a tooth-colored composite material to restore teeth and enhance smiles. One of the most common procedures that we do in our office with Cosmetic Dental Bonding is the closure of spaces between teeth, called diastamas. The closure of diastamas is most commonly requested for a space between the two upper central front teeth as shown in the above after photo.

The tooth-colored composite is placed on the tooth, then shaped and molded to achieve the desired results, including: tooth whitening, closing spaces between teeth, making teeth appear straighter and repairing chips and cracks. The material is then hardened and polished, creating a natural appearance. Although Cosmetic Dental Bonding is an exceptionally good technique to close diastamas (spaces between the teeth) between the upper central anterior teeth, it can be used to close spaces between any teeth. We have many patients that opt to have cosmetic bonding on their front teeth because this is a less expensive procedure than using either porcelain veneers or porcelain crowns. In a few cases, we have constructed an extreme makeover of the smile entirely with Cosmetic Dental Bonding with beautiful results and at a lower cost to the patient.

Dental Bonding as an Option for Smile Makeovers

Cosmetic Dental Bonding should be considered as an option in the following situations:
· to repair any anterior tooth
· to repair decay areas of anterior teeth
· to repair chipped or cracked teeth
· to improve the appearance of discolored teeth
· to close spaces (diastamas) between teeth
· to make teeth look longer
· to change the shape of teeth
· as a cosmetic alternative to amalgam fillings on posterior teeth
· to protect a portion of a tooth’s root if exposed when gums recede
