Our Signature Smile Designs

Opus Dental Esthetics has helped countless patients achieve flawless new smiles through dynamic customization and personalization at our Philadelphia practice. Here is a collection of smile transformation examples below.

Dental Crowns and Bridges

Thoughtfully restored form and function, these before-and-after images highlight the precision of custom dental crowns and bridges. These cases include:

• A patient who came to us seeking to refresh her ceramic crowns, placed over 20 years ago, to mask tetracycline staining.
• A professional with crowded teeth, chipped teeth, gray tooth color, and a color mismatch between her previous crowns.
• A young woman who was interested in upgrading her lower partial denture to a fixed (nonremovable) solution to replace her missing lower two front teeth.

Dental Veneers

By carefully reshaping tooth structure and applying ultra-thin porcelain, we correct discoloration, uneven contours, and minor alignment concerns while preserving natural tooth integrity. The result is a balanced, luminous smile. These featured veneer cases include:

• A young lady who unfortunately fell on ice, causing several teeth to shift and her fillings to discolor over time. She was looking for a long-lasting solution to restore her beautiful smile.
• After a front tooth broke, this patient decided to enhance his smile with a more limited approach to improve the appearance of his upper four front teeth. A combination of two porcelain veneers, one ceramic crown, and a dental implant crown provided him with the smile enhancement he sought.

Dental Implants

By replacing missing teeth with biocompatible implants, we reestablish stable occlusion, preserve bone, and support natural-looking restorations. Each case reflects careful planning, advanced imaging, and meticulous execution. These implant cases include:

• Missing teeth, tooth decay, a crooked smile, and a partial upper denture with metal clasps were all part of the pre-treatment presentation for this wonderful patient. After years of less-than-ideal experiences that led her to avoid the dentist, she finally regained confidence in dental care after spending time in our office.
• Over the years, the patient had single-tooth dentistry performed on an as-needed basis, resulting in a variety of colors and materials. Tooth decay under old crowns contributed to tooth loss. Dr. Conover developed a plan that included dental implants, along with other cosmetic and restorative treatments.
• After years of addressing isolated dental problems and subsequent tooth loss, this patient found us. We delivered full-arch dental prosthetics retained by dental implants to restore her smile.

Professional Teeth Whitening

Subtle changes can produce remarkable clarity. With professional teeth whitening, we can remove years of accumulated staining, revealing a brighter, more uniform smile while preserving the integrity of natural enamel. These teeth whitening cases include:

• This lovely patient in her 20s came to us to whiten her teeth and improve their appearance with our in-office deep bleaching, which yielded much whiter results.
• This young male patient wanted a conservative approach to address both his discolored, asymmetrical bonding. With teeth whitening along with veneers, Dr. Conover was able to provide a much more uniform, natural appearance to his smile.
• The patient wanted a smile that truly reflected her own style. She preferred a fuller, more squared look for her front teeth, and Dr. Conover designed her treatment around that vision. By carefully enhancing the shape, closing small spaces, and brightening her teeth, we created a smile that feels polished and confident.

Dental Bonding

Composite bonding is used to correct minor chips, close small gaps, and harmonize tooth contours without removing healthy enamel. The result is a more balanced smile that preserves natural translucency. These cases include:

• This patient chipped her front tooth just before a big event. With expert cosmetic bonding, Dr. Conover restored her smile the same day, achieving a natural, seamless result.
• The patient closed unwanted spaces and enhanced their smile with precise resin bonding. A simple, effective way to achieve a more confident smile in just one visit with Dr. Conover.
• The patient wanted to improve the appearance of her smile, concerned with chips and spaces between her front teeth. To restore harmony and protect her teeth, we took a conservative approach, carefully placing bonding to rebuild worn areas and close gaps.
• Over time, even the most carefully crafted bonding can show signs of wear. So when this patient came to us seeking a refresh for bonding on her front teeth, we took the opportunity to refine and rejuvenate her smile.

Clear Aligners

Custom clear aligners precisely guide alignment while preserving comfort and daily convenience. By applying controlled forces over time, we can correct crowding, spacing, and bite relationships with minimal disruption. These before-and-afters include:

• When this patient found us on Instagram, she said what drew her in was the natural look of our results. That’s exactly what we aimed for. We started with Invisalign® to subtly straighten her teeth, refined her gum line with a gentle gingivectomy, and brightened her smile.
• This patient was interested in conservative treatment to improve her smile. Treatment was simple; no porcelain veneers were required. Invisalign clear aligners were used to straighten the teeth, and in-office deep bleaching significantly lightened tooth color.
• This patient decided it was time for her smile to match the rest of her look. Using Invisalign, whitening, and carefully placed composite bonding, we refreshed and refined her smile without compromising what made it uniquely hers.
• This patient was interested in conservative treatment to improve her smile. Invisalign clear aligners were used to straighten her teeth, and in-office deep bleaching lightened her tooth color.

Smile Makeover

Through a combination of restorative and cosmetic techniques such as veneers, whitening, and precise occlusal adjustments, we achieve natural-looking, durable smile makeover results. These cases include:

• The patient came to our office solely for esthetic care. We were able to bond a tooth-colored composite filling on the lower teeth, restoring their appearance and function. Ceramic materials were used to replace the existing crowns on the two upper front teeth, with porcelain veneers utilized on the lateral incisors.
• A fall and a broken front tooth caused this wonderful long-time patient to consider refreshing her smile. Initially completed over 20 years ago by Dr. Doray, our patient’s smile was already well-designed. Dr. Conover’s goal was to subtly enhance her smile by treating the upper six teeth.
• After years of single-tooth dentistry, our patient came to the office dissatisfied with the lack of consistency in his smile. With careful planning and execution, Dr. Conover replaced the hodgepodge of existing dental work on his upper teeth with 10 ceramic restorations. The result was a clean, natural, harmonious smile upgrade.
