Did you know that cosmetic dentists performed over 599,000 porcelain veneer procedures last year? This makes it the third most performed cosmetic dental procedure performed. Many patients receive porcelain veneers to enhance or repair their teeth and smile. Porcelain veneer procedures have increased by 250% in the past five years as more and more patients begin to see the benefits that an improved smile may have.

According to Dr. Ryne Johnson of Newton Prosthodontics, dental veneers can also enhance the fullness of your lips and an increasing number of women in his practice elect to place veneers as a way to enhance lip fullness and plumpness.

Porcelain veneers help increase confidence and improve your smile by augmenting natural lip shape. Dental veneers are a very common cosmetic dentistry procedure, but only recently have patients discovered what veneers can do to produce fuller lips, reduce wrinkles, and improve the appearance of the entire face.

The added thickness of the veneers pushes out one's natural lip curves to create a more rounded, ample shape. With a dental procedure like porcelain veneers, patients can experience plump, luscious lips without having to undergo plastic surgical procedures or dermal fillers. Dental veneers can improve the look of the smile and the entire face, and are permanent unlike dermal fillers. With veneers, patients can permanently enhance their lips and remove or reduce wrinkles in the corner of their mouth without having to endure frequent injections.

Consult with an experienced and dedicated prosthodontist can help you address any questions or concerns you may have when considering whether veneers are right for you. You may contact Dr. Ryne Johnson at Newton Prosthodontics by phone (617.965.1225) or by visiting his website NewtonProsthodontics.com. Remember, “See a specialist…the difference will make you smile.

 - Jim Braude, 96.9 WTKK-FM and New England Cable News - "Michael Graham and I are patients of Ryne Johnson of Newton Prosthodontics.  I have spoken to so many of you who have made Dr. Johnson your dentist too ... lawyers, physical therapists, retired men and women, accountants, people in the media, people in working construction, and more. Well, add me to the list as my smile is my living."

Corina Miller, is a model, and she's a lead singer in a band too, who mostly works in New York and London. But she was in Boston recently and was discussing with her publicist how she wanted to improve her smile.

Her publicist knew that Dr. Johnson had many patients who spend time in front of the camera, and to a person they raved about the quality of his cosmetic work. So, Corina joined the growing list of people who swear by Dr. Johnson.

Here is some of what she said in her own words: "I couldn't be any happier or impressed with the outcome;  he is a  refreshingly unique type of dentist; with ease he made significant change that I always wanted but thought was impossible, feeling good about your smile makes one feel more connected with one's self and others."  She continues, "The results are  breath taking, I can't thank Dr. Johnson enough. He is efficient, thorough, and caring Dentist, trust me."

Whether you are interested in cosmetic dentistry for the look or for durability, the Dr. Johnson at Newton Prosthodontics can provide you with excellent care and quality when it comes to any dental procedure.

At Newton Prosthodontics, Dr. Johnson combines the old fashioned approach with new technology. Combining customer service that is above and beyond with cutting edge technology he is able to provide cosmetic dental care that is above reproach.

The Philosophy of Newton Prosthodontics:
A quality practice, providing outstanding cosmetic, restorative, prosthetic and implant dentistry on dentally sophisticated people who value the principles of integrity, compassion and attention to detail and a passion for excellence.

As one of the first dental professionals in Massachusetts to embrace the relatively new technology from Cadent's iTero integrated digital impression system, Dr. Johnson has seen in a very short time tremendous advances in his ability to provide patients with higher quality crown and bridge restorations than he has ever had previously.

"Compared to some of the other digital systems that I looked at, which offer an end result in one visit," he notes, "the iTero lets me continue to partner with the dental labs I've come to trust and use the skills of ceramists I've counted on for years. As much as I’m a hands on kind of guy, I believe that the quality I get by using my technicians talents to manufacture crowns and bridges offers my patients a better result."

As more dentists become familiar with its capabilities and ease of use, Dr. Johnson predicts that the CAD/CAM system will become a vital part of every dental office, replacing the old-fashioned tray-and-putty method. In fact, in conjunction with Cadent, he's helping spread the word by holding small workshops for 10-15 dentists.

He believes in this technology and has marveled at the results to such a degree that he feels he has to create a mechanism for his colleagues to see it firsthand, in action.

When it comes to his mantra "it all comes down to service" Dr Johnson says his staff helps him provide it. And it shows; most of Dr. Johnson’s new patients have come as referrals from current or past patients.

This may also be from his compassion and care with which he cares for his patients. "An older woman looking to recapture her youthful appearance was referred to me, but her dental health had deteriorated so badly I told her she'd have to wear dentures until the implants were functional. She was devastated, but I encouraged her to speak, via conf call, to some of my patients who had gone through the exact procedure."

Dr. Johnson's receptionist called the patients in advance and arranged for the time of the call. None of the parties knew the identity of those with whom they were speaking, but the new patient was able to discuss her concerns and have them alleviated by those who could empathize "in a way that I could not".  It has been a very good tool for us".

If you are contemplating a cosmetic dental procedure, contact Dr. Johnson at Newton Prosthodontics to see how technology and customer service can help you achieve the perfect smile.

When people think of cosmetic surgery, they rarely think of cosmetic dentistry. Cosmetic dentistry deals with the aesthetic aspect of the face.

Nevertheless, there can also be an improvement in functionality of the teeth after performing cosmetic procedures.

From comfort to look to usability, many people want to enhance their smile. Not only are there many different reasons to undergo cosmetic dentistry, there are also a multitude of different forms of smile enhancement. Cosmetic dentistry employs various dental techniques to improve the appearance of your teeth and give you a beautiful smile and it is becoming more sought after these days.

Cosmetic dentistry deals mainly with external appearance of our teeth and mouth. Whether from accidents or through genetics, your teeth may have been broken or have grown in a way that causes you general discomfort. If orthodontic work has not been successful, or is not possible in some cases, the best alternative for many is cosmetic dentistry.

Others undergo cosmetic dentistry in order to enhance their smile. Cosmetic dentistry is becoming more and more common for the general population. People in every industry and field are turning to cosmetic dentists to get the smile they have always wanted.

Often people do not even realize that their dental work is cosmetic. Dentures, bleaching and invisible braces are all part of cosmetic dentistry. There are a number of cosmetic dental procedures available today. Some of the most common are dental bleaching, veneers, and dental implants.
 
So, whether you are interested in cosmetic dentistry for the look or for comfort or both, Dr. Johnson at Newton Prosthodontics can provide you with excellent care and quality when it comes to veneers, bleaching, full mouth reconstruction, or any dental procedure, cosmetic or otherwise.

Prosthodontists are dentists who specialize in replacing broken or missing teeth and restoring smiles to their proper appearance and function.  Prosthodontics is a specialized field of dentistry related to the diagnosis, treatment and maintenance of oral comfort and appearance, and function. When someone loses a tooth or teeth, the inability to chew properly and a changed facial appearance often result. A prosthodontist can restore a patient's appearance, and help them regain the proper function of the teeth.

What do prosthodontists do?

Prosthodontists offer patients many treatment options including dental implants, crowns, dentures, veneers and bridges, and metal free fillings.

Dental implants in particular have revolutionized the treatment for missing teeth, and prosthodontists are on the forefront of this technology. A dental implant is essentially a tooth replacement. A titanium replica of the root is embedded into the bone of the jaw.  The bone fuses to the titanium insert within the jaw bone. Then, onto the dental implant, a tooth is added.
 
Patients who demand stunning smiles, from ever day people to celebrities and politicians, seek out prosthodontists for advanced aesthetic dentistry that looks great and feels wonderful. The ability of prosthodontists to visualize the whole picture is what allows them to envision the patients’ aesthetic needs and create the desired aesthetic results from start to finish.  Prosthodontists have advanced training and experience so they can best treat difficult or complex cases.

If a healthy and dazzling smile is important to you, you owe it to yourself to see a prosthodontist. Keep in mind, that even though it is a recognized specialty, you do not need a referral. If you are looking for superior aesthetic results, are interested in dental implants, need to solve serious dental problems, or just want to work with the most rigorously trained dentists’ available, call Newton Prosthodontics today. Let us bring a smile back to your face.
