REAL SMILE TRANSFORMATIONS
Results Designed to Look Natural
Explore a selection of smile transformations from Remedy Dentistry.
Individual results vary. A consultation and clinical examination are required to determine appropriate treatment.
START WITH YOUR SMILE
What would you
like to change?
You do not need to know the treatment name. Start with what you notice, then explore options to discuss with Dr. Greg.
Compare your optionsChipped edges or uneven shapes
Bonding or porcelain veneers may help refine selected teeth. Your bite and the amount of healthy tooth structure guide the choice.
Gaps or crowded teeth
Moving teeth with Invisalign may be an option. For some smaller spaces, bonding or veneers may also be discussed after an examination.
Staining or a dull-looking smile
Start by discussing professional whitening. The cause of discoloration and any existing restorations matter when choosing an approach.
Worn, damaged or missing teeth
A restorative examination helps identify the cause and suitable options. Crowns and bridges may be part of a plan to restore your smile and function.

PATIENT EXPERIENCES
What Our Patients Say
“Dr Balaes brought back my daughter’s confidence and smile. After breaking her front tooth at a young age, it had been bonded a few times, never looked natural color wise or shape. Her smile faded away. After getting her veneer done, she’s smiling all the time and so happy. The staff is great, very accommodating, office is clean and comfortable. I’m so happy we were recommended to Remedy Dentistry, thank you for taking great care of my daughter and making her smile shine. ❤️ ”

Planning Your Visit to Remedy Dentistry
What cosmetic dental treatments do you offer?
Remedy Dentistry offers cosmetic and restorative options including porcelain veneers, minimally invasive and no-prep veneers, Invisalign, professional whitening, cosmetic bonding, ceramic crowns, implants, and comprehensive smile-design treatment.
Can I preview my smile before getting veneers?
Depending on your case, digital smile planning, a diagnostic design, or a physical prototype may be used to help you understand the proposed tooth shape and proportions before final treatment.
Do all veneers require shaving the teeth?
No. Some patients may qualify for no-prep or minimal-prep veneers, while others require selective preparation to create proper space, contours, and esthetics. A clinical examination is necessary to determine the appropriate approach.
How do you make veneers look natural?
Natural-looking veneers require individualized planning of tooth proportions, shape, shade, surface texture, translucency, gumline, smile arc, lip movement, and facial harmony.
How many veneers will I need?
The number depends on how many teeth show when you smile, which teeth require treatment, your smile width, and your desired result. Some patients treat only a few teeth, while others benefit from a broader smile design.
Does Remedy Dentistry provide general dental care?
Yes. Preventive cleanings, examinations, tooth-colored restorations, ceramic crowns, implant-related care, and other restorative treatments are available in addition to cosmetic dentistry.
