Porcelain Veneers Overview
April 18, 2016
Do you believe that a flawless, white smile is out of reach? Less than 30 years ago, someone who had misaligned teeth, teeth that were different lengths, or even deeply stained teeth would have had to resign themselves to less than perfect grins. Today, however, that has changed and Dr. Shane Sudman of Atrium Family Dental in New Lenox, IL can work with any of our patients to give them a treatment known as porcelain veneers.
As part of cosmetic dentistry, porcelain veneers seem to be a nearly perfect solution to a long list of dental issues. Not only are dental veneers a part of cosmetic dentistry, but can also be said to provide some of our patients with restorative dentistry solutions too.

Gummy Smiles Treatment
July 25, 2013
Each and every one of us has their own unique smile, however some people are a bit self-conscious about their smile because their gums start showing. This is why many search for a solution to this aesthetic problem. The dentists at Atrium Family Dental have seen many different cases of gummy smiles and have prescribed certain procedures that specifically target this cosmetic issue and have identified the possible causes of a gummy smile.
One of the treatments available for qualified patients is gum contouring. A laser is used to do away with the excess soft tissue and reveal more of the healthy teeth. This is a quick procedure with minimal pain if your gummy smile isn’t severe. This is all about reshaping or contouring the bone and also reducing or lifting the gum line. It will allow the teeth crown to have a more visible appearance compared to the gums. The goal is to make your smile look natural but at the same time the improvements should be obvious.
