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.

An aging appearance is not always about sunspots, wrinkles on your face and neck or one’s posture.  If your teeth have a yellowish or brownish hue, you could actually look ten years older.

However, if you have a healthy, bright and white smile, you will look much younger and vibrant. The following are a few anti-aging cosmetic dentistry procedures that can be performed by Dr. Ryne Johnson at Newton Prosthodontics:

1.  Dental Veneers
You look several years older than you actually are, if your teeth are crooked and misshaped.
 
If the tooth structure is lost, your smile will appear ‘older’. The shape of your lips may also be transformed, and so will the entire lower structure of your face. With dental veneers, you can look even up to 10-15 years younger. The veneers are made of porcelain and they are meant to transform the shape and color of your teeth.

Dr. Johnson, a Prosthodontist with advanced training in cosmetic procedures, who is truly an expert in what he does, can re-build the shape of your teeth with the dental veneers, he may also make those fine wrinkles around your mouth disappear.

2. Professional teeth whitening
Even if your teeth are healthy in essence, they might lose their bright and white structure if you are used to drinking coffee and tea every day.

There are several teeth whitening kits that you can use at home, but nothing compares to a professional teeth whitening procedure at our office. Your teeth can become even 5 to 6 shades lighter after one hour of professional treatment.
 
3. The dermal fillers …done best by plastic surgeons
There are experts who can make those naso-labial folds disappear with the help of dermal fillers.
 
After the application of the veneers is done, some use the dermal filer in order to smooth out the appearance of your skin between your lips and nose.
 
This way, your skin will look smooth and healthy, and this will being forward even more your beautiful teeth and smile.

In short, you can look and feel your best if your smile projects confidence and youthful beauty.  A visit to the dentist can offer predictable and incredible improvements in one’s overall appearance. Dr. Johnson is accepting new patients.  You may get more information about his practice at NewtonProsthodontics.com or by calling 617.965.1225.  Remember, “See a Specialist…the Difference will Make you  Smile”

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."

Your smile is a big tool in the business world. Previously, there wasn’t anything you could really do to fix your smile. Today things are different.

The kinds of cosmetic dentistry options that are available today vary based on your needs. Your options range from teeth whitening to bonding tooth colored filling material to porcelain veneers and caps and full crowns.

Prosthodontists can guide you in the best decision for you. One of the best ways to avoid a fake looking smile is to remember that nothing in nature is perfectly symmetrical. Subtle variations in the teeth and smile are important; perhaps rounding the corner of a tooth. Also, the shade of your smile is important, even though everyone wants that bright white one, it is important that you and your prosthodontist select a shade that is right for you.

Veneers are a popular cosmetic option for patients whose teeth that are in good condition, but  they want the color or shape improved, or would like to fill in the gaps in their natural teeth. For these patients, porcelain veneers are a great option because they are aesthetic and can enhance the teeth without having to remove much of the tooth structure. Veneers are also much more conservative than conventional caps or crowns. Prosthodontists have the skills and experience to use veneers to make a natural and aesthetic smile.

Cosmetic dentistry is a specialized field that restores and beautifies teeth. It is one of the most popular choices of cosmetic surgery today and more and more people are opting for cosmetic dental procedures to improve their appearance, comfort and lifestyle.

Cosmetic dentistry serves several purposes, one is basic comfort. From an accident or through genetics, your teeth may have been broken or may cause you general discomfort. If orthodontic work has not been successful, or is not possible, for many the best alternative is cosmetic dentistry.

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

Seniors are finding that through implants and veneers they can increase the life of their teeth and their overall comfort. An alternative to dentures is priceless for many.

You may not even realize that your dental work is considered cosmetic. There are a number of cosmetic dental procedures available today. Some of the most common are teeth whitening, veneers, and dental implants.

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.
