In a unique case, a patient was self-conscious about a darkened tooth that always stood out to her in photos she saw of herself. The tooth itself was a little crooked and cast a shadow whenever she smiled for the camera, creating the appearance of a darkened tooth. Investigating the issue, Dr. Wolberg recommended a dental veneer transformation in which he would craft a single porcelain veneer to correct the appearance of the tooth. “We aimed for a solution that was both aesthetic and minimally invasive,” he explains. The patient was involved in the decision-making process and chose the veneer path for a quicker and less invasive solution compared to other treatments. Dr. Wolberg also performed a chairside mock-up using composite material, giving her a preview of the final result during her consultation. The patient’s satisfaction with the final result was evident, showcasing how a single veneer can significantly enhance a person’s smile and confidence.
