Before & After
Here are a few of our recent cases. It is our intention to update this gallery regularly to give you, the patient, an insight into what we can achieve here at Durham City Smiles. We must stress these are our own patients, and we hope you will agree there has been a vast improvement. Although perfection is the goal, it may not always be attainable, but we feel that a vast improvement is a result worth celebrating.
Before

Latest Case: This lady wasn’t happy with her smile and her gap. We restored her smile with a combination of emax ceramic bridges and veneers. The second picture is 5 minutes after fitting so the gums haven’t had time to settle after temporisation, but she was going back to Spain so we had to take photos at this stage.
Before
After

Latest Case: This gentleman came to us with quite severe erosion of his dental enamel, causing him concern about his appearance. His smile was restored with 6 emax porcelain veneers, and the second photo is after 6 months in place

Latest Case: This young lady had a severe erosion problem due to a longterm medical condition. There was severe damage to the enamel and she was embarrassed to smile. We restored her smile and her self esteem with 8 emax ceramic crowns, and now she has a lovely smile which she proudly shows everyone.
We decided to revitalise her smile with 6 Emax porcelain veneers, and now she smiles all the time at everyone. She’s just returned for a review today 1 month after completion and is a very happy lady.
Treatment: We prepared 2 ceramic crowns, and the post op photo was taken at the fit appointment, hence a little cement can be seen. He left delighted, but hasn’t come in for a review and photo…..yet.
Although we don’t favour the Tom Cruise super white look, he wanted his smile to be improved without looking false, and I think we achieved that. He went to the wedding and was complimented upon his nice smile. High praise indeed and a very favourable result for all.
