Black Triangle Rejuvenation
One of the most common, yet poorly addressed, dental concerns is open gingival embrasures often referred to as “black triangles”. It may be a surprise to know that this condition exists to varying degrees in most adults. Conventional treatments with ceramic crowns or veneers necessitate some removal of healthy tooth structure to close the gaps. An additive solution with direct composite veneers is ultimately more conservative. While visual elimination of the gap is relatively easy, healthy closure is the greater challenge.
Cracked Tooth Revival
The assessment for structural compromise involves evaluating the current state of the tooth along with the characteristics of the existing restoration. Our high-magnification surgical microscope and high-resolution clinical photography tell a story of a severely compromised second molar stricken with weak cusps and extensive dentin cracks. Dr. Kim masterfully deconstructed and restored this case using the most advanced biomimetic protocols and materials on the market.
