Creating beautiful smiles to last a lifetime.
Full Mouth Reconstruction Remakes Smile
Over the years, Rachael spent a lot of time in the dental chair patching one tooth at a time. When she came to Adler Cosmetic & Family Dentistry, her bite was not feeling right and she was not happy with her smile. She wanted her teeth to look natural, have healthy teeth and gums, and most of all to have a smile that would last her a lifetime. When Dr. Adler met Rachael he noted that she had several issues that needed to be addressed. Rachael had alignment issues, she had a deep bite and her midline was off center. She also presented with loose teeth, multiple cavities, crowding, wear, periodontal problems, gum height variations and her teeth were different shades. Dr Adler also noticed a forward head posture and the patient informed him she suffers from migraines.
Rachael’s alignment issues, forward head posture, loose teeth, wear, off center midline, and migraines were strong indications that her bite was not in its correct position. Giving Rachael a correct bite and restoring all of her teeth at one time would alleviate the problems that she faced. In order to correct her bite problems and give Rachael the smile she always wanted and deserved, Dr. Adler recommended neuromuscular dentistry in conjunction with aesthetic and functional dentistry.
Rachael’s treatment began with neuromuscular dentistry. Dr. Adler did a K7 evaluation with TENS to determine her correct bite. Based on the information gathered during the K7 evaluation, a fixed orthotic splint was fabricated and bonded to Rachael’s lower anterior teeth. The orthotic would maintain her ideal bite position until the full mouth restorations were completed. The full mouth restorations consisted of a root canal, placement of carbon fiber posts, preparation and bonding of 22 porcelain crowns, tissue re-contouring and custom shading. The root canal eliminated any infection in the tooth and the carbon fiber posts gave the additional support and stability needed for the crowns on teeth with root canals. When performing the tissue re-contouring, Dr. Alder used a diode laser to reshape the tissue around the teeth to make Rachael’s smile even, symmetrical and natural.
Due to the extensive nature of the preparation, the case was sent to Aurum Ceramic Dental Lab for fabrication of the crowns. The teeth were prepared in a single visit for the convenience of the patient. Preparing the teeth in a single visit also allowed Aurum to construct the crowns in relationship to her proper and newly established bite, and not just as individual teeth. Using Aurum insured that her smile was not only aesthetically beautiful but also functional and in the proper bite. Rachael now has a beautiful, comfortable smile that will last a lifetime.

Full Mouth Reconstruction Improves Patient Bite and Enhances Smile
- Patrick’s Smile Before
When Patrick came to Adler Cosmetic & Family Dentistry he was concerned about his bite being off and how his smile looked. He wanted straight natural looking teeth but didn’t want the hassle of wearing braces as an adult. Patrick was over closed meaning that his upper teeth covered his lower teeth when his teeth were together. He also had a limited opening and was aware that he clenched and ground his teeth. He had been told in the past that he would need jaw surgery in order to get his bite corrected. Patrick wanted to correct these issues without having major surgery.
Note Patrick's Deep Bite
Dr. Adler noted in his exam that although Patrick was not having a severe amount of jaw pain, that his bite did need to be corrected. His teeth showed distinctive wear patterns and were crowded. The alignment of his teeth and his midline was off center. His deep bite also concerned Dr. Adler because that indicated muscle fatigue and an incorrect bite. Dr. Adler recommended a K7 evaluation in order determine exactly what Patrick’s muscles were doing and the best way to correct his bite issues.
The K7 evaluation consisted of running a series of test using non-invasive computerized electronic instrumentation. It began with taking diagnostic cast so we have an accurate model of his mouth and bite. The K7 produces scans that measure the muscles, range of motion, and joint noise among other things. EMG or electromyography measures the muscles at rest and during function-clench. CMS (computerized mandibular scan) measures joint function, habitual freeway space, swallowing, and range of motion. Sonography measures joint sounds. TENS or Transcutaneous Neural Stimulation relaxes the muscles in the face and neck to find their true resting state and establish the occlusion at that position. Material is then placed in the patient’s mouth to capture that ideal position, known as the bite registration or myobite. Patrick’s scans showed improvement when preformed with the bite in place. Based upon the information gathered during the K7 evaluation, it was determined that the best course of treatment would be for Patrick to be fitted with a fixed orthotic that would be bonded to his lower teeth would reposition his bite and jaw into its ideal position. Dr. Adler recommended that once Patrick’s bite had settled into the proper position to then do a full mouth reconstruction where all of his teeth would be crowned to rebuild his bite into the correct place permanently without the continued use of an orthotic.
Patrick After
The bite registration was used by the laboratory to fabricate the fixed orthotic that was bonded to his lower teeth to establish that ideal position. The orthotic was worn and adjusted for several months and gave Patrick a good trial run for how his bite would feel after permanent restoration was completed.
Patrick's Great Smile After
Once Dr. Adler was confident that Patrick’s bite was in its ideal position, phase II began in which his entire mouth was reconstructed into its new bite. In just one visit, all of Patrick’s teeth were prepared for his crowns and the orthotic was removed. Temporary crown that matched the shape and size of the new permanent teeth were fitted over the prepared teeth until the permanent ones were completed. Impressions of Patrick’s ideal bite, including the bite registration, were sent to Aurum Ceramic Laboratories for use in the fabrication of the final crowns. Each crown was custom made into Patrick’s ideal bite so that an orthotic would no longer be necessary. During fabrication the lab also took aesthetics into account so the crowns were made to be the most aesthetically appealing for the patient’s individual smile. Once the lab had completed fabrication, Patrick had all the permanent crowns placed in just one visit. The final results were amazing. Not only does Patrick have a great looking smile but now his bite is also corrected and without the need for surgery.

Dental Implant Placement Completes Broken Smile
- Tony Before
For someone who has had a broken smile for a number of years, today has been a long time in coming. We met Tony in the beginning of 2007 and began soon after to restore his smile. A titanium implant and bone graft were placed where tooth #7 used to be.
If a tooth is missing, the gums and bone it was attached to are no longer stimulated by the blood supply and activity of that tooth. Therefore, with the tooth gone, the surrounding bone and gums may resorb or melt away. Furthermore, the opposing tooth (on the opposite jaw) no longer has something to bite against, and may grow towards the space created by the missing tooth. Implants not only stabilize the restoration that sits on top of it, but also stimulate bone growth around the implant.
Tony with Complete Smile
The implant was placed during a surgical procedure, directly in the jawbone and under the gums. The surgical site with the implant was then left (under the gums) to allow the bone to grow around the implant and “osseo-integrate”. Six months after the first surgery, the implant was uncovered from under the gums. An “abutment” or implant post was then connected to it, and the gums were given time to heal around this abutment. About a month later, a final tooth restoration is custom-made to fit onto the abutment. Today was that day. After waiting patiently, Tony was able to come in today and have his custom-made crown permanently fitted and left with his mouth restored. Today we completed a smile.

Cosmetic and Emergency Dental Treatment Restores Smile After Traumatic Accident
- Ryan after the accident
Ryan suffered a traumatic fall that severely damaged his front teeth. Tooth #8 (his upper front tooth on the right) had sustained the most damage and had had a third of the tooth broken off. Ryan was suffering pain and sensitivity due to the fracture. Tooth #9 (located to the left of #8) was also fractured but not to the same extent.
Dr. Adler performed a root canal on tooth #8 as part of his emergency treatment to get the patient out of pain. The teeth were temporarily bonded to make the teeth look normal while Ryan was completing his treatment. The root canal was necessary because the severe fracture exposed the pulp of the tooth to bacteria that live in the saliva. If left untreated, the tooth would continue to be a source of infection and eventually weaken the body’s immune system. The pulp is contained within an inner chamber of the tooth called the pulp chamber. Pulp is commonly referred to as the nerve but is actually a soft tissue make up of nerves, arteries, and veins. The pulp extends from the pulp chamber down through narrow channels, called the root canals, to the tips of the roots. The fear and pain associated with root canals are over rated. For most patients, getting a root canal is no more traumatic that having a filling done. During the process of the root canal, the doctor goes into the tooth and removes the pulp, cleaning the cavity.
Once a root canal has been performed, the tooth is structurally weakened and prone to fractures and breaking if left as is. Crowns are a common option for a root canalled tooth. In Ryan’s case, both tooth #8 and 9 were both crowned not only because of the root canal but because of the fractures caused by the accident. The teeth are prepared for the crown by removing any damaged areas and/or decay. In the case of tooth #8 a carbon fiber post was placed to adequately support the crown so the bite force would be properly distributed so that the tooth did no fracture. The tooth is then shaped to securely hold the crown. The crown is either custom fabricated in the office using CAD/CAM Cerec system or sent to a laboratory. Ryan’s was sent to a laboratory and an impression of the tooth was taken so the dental lab could make an accurate model of his mouth, and then created a crown that precisely fit his mouth and bite. Ryan received all porcelain crowns on #8 and 9. Unlike porcelain fused to metal crowns, all porcelain crowns are translucent and allow light to pass through the tooth like a natural tooth opposed to reflecting all the light which can make the tooth appear dark. Porcelain fused to metal crowns can also have a dark ring near the gum line which is not present with all porcelain crowns. The shade of the teeth is also very important to maintain the natural appearance. An underlying shade is taken of the prepared tooth, known as a stump shade, to better match the natural and subtle hues of the tooth. The shade of the crown is also determined by the adjacent teeth. Whitening is done before this outer shade is taken to make sure the crown closely matched the other teeth and because crowns are not effected by the whitening process and so will remain the same color as they are made.
Prior to the crowns being custom made, Ryan had his teeth whitened using our in-office ZOOM laser whitening. The main ingredient in Zoom is hydrogen peroxide, which works by oxygen enter the enamel and dentin was it breaks down. The oxygen bleaches colored substances and doesn’t harm the tooth structure.
Ryan After
The Zoom light aids in activating the hydrogen peroxide and helps it penetrate the surface of the tooth. It is a simple procedure that can produce great results. With this new brighter smile, Ryan was ready to have the shade taken and the crowns seated.

Full Mouth Reconstruction Creates Beautiful New Smile
Richard
Richard originally came to Adler Cosmetic & Family Dentistry because he was unhappy with his smile. He was concerned that his bite had been changing over the years including changing color, crowding, and problems with his gums. He wanted to keep his teeth and gums healthy and get an updated smile. He had spent a lot of time in the dental chair at other offices just fixing one tooth at time without getting the overall results that he wanted. At the time Dr. Adler had recently begun studying at the Las Vegas Instituted (LVI) expanding his knowledge of both cosmetic and neuromuscular dentistry. Instead of just evaluating Richard’s problems as individual teeth to be fixed independently, he looked at Richard’s mouth as a whole and addressed all the issues together. Dr. Adler realized that the training he had received at LVI was just the solution that Richard was looking for.
Richard Before
The first step to a healthy smile is healthy gums. Richard had periodontal disease, a chronic bacterial infection that affects the gums and the bone supporting the teeth. If left untreated, a serious infection can lead to bone loss and tooth loss. To treat his periodontal disease, Richard had scaling and root planning done. During this procedure, the hygienist, Susan, numbed quadrants of Richard’s mouth, since the gum tissue was inflamed and sensitive, and then scaled out the bacteria and calculus (tartar) that had built up under the gum tissue. After the procedure, Richard had to make sure to get his regular cleanings done every three months (as opposed to the usual recommendation of every 6 months) in order to maintain healthy gums and manage his periodontal disease.
Once Richard’s gums were healthy, then Dr. Adler focused on his bite problems. A K7 evaluation was performed to determine exactly what was happening with Richard’s bite and the best way to approach fixing the problem. The K7 evaluation consisted of running a series of test using non-invasive computerized electronic instrumentation. It began with taking diagnostic cast so we have an accurate model of his mouth and bite. The K7 produces scans that measure the muscles, range of motion, and joint noise among other things. EMG or electromyography measures the muscles at rest and during function-clench. CMS (computerized mandibular scan) measures joint function, habitual freeway space, swallowing, and range of motion. Sonography measures joint sounds. TENS or Transcutaneous Neural Stimulation relaxes the muscles in the face and neck to find their true resting state and establish the occlusion at that position. Material is then placed in the patient’s mouth to capture that ideal position, known as the bite registration. Based upon the information gather during the K7 evaluation, it was determined that the best course of treatment would be for Richard to be fitted with a fixed orthotic that would be bonded to his lower teeth that would reposition his bite and jaw into its ideal position. Once his bite had settled into the proper position to then do a full mouth reconstruction where all of his teeth would be crowned to rebuild his bite into the correct place permanently without the continued use of an orthotic.
Richard is Smiling Now!
Richard After
Richard, who was Dr. Adler’s first full mouth reconstruction case, met Dr. Adler and his assistants in Las Vegas at the Las Vegas Institution to do the final restorations under the guidance of LVI’s highly trained instructors. During the first procedure, the fixed lower orthotic was removed and all of Richard’s teeth were prepared for the crowns. Temporary crowns were then placed while the impressions were sent to Aurum Ceramic Dental Laboratory where Richard’s crowns would be custom fabricated into his new bite and better looking smile. Once fabrication on the crowns was complete, Richard returned to LVI with Dr. Adler to have the case seated. The temporary crowns were removed and Richard’s amazing new crowns were cemented into his ideal bite with strong clear cement. Now Richard is smiling all the time and is proud to show off his teeth.

Repairing Broken Tooth | Fractured Tooth
- Katie after the accident
With just a slip of the foot, Katie’s appearance was instantly changed. After slipping on ice and falling face first, Katie was left with at least two of her upper front teeth broken. A large portion of her upper left middle tooth was fractured off and her upper right tooth next to the middle was also chipped. She immediately sought treatment from Dr. Adler of Adler Cosmetic & Family Dentistry. Dr. Adler examined the damaged area using the aid of both x-rays and an interoral camera to help diagnose the multiple fractures that were not apparent to the naked eye and to determine the extent of the damage. Teeth #7 and 9 were visibly broken so Dr. Adler placed composite bond on the teeth as a temporary solution to restore the aesthetic look of the teeth until permanent restorations could be completed. Tooth #8 did not appear visibly damaged but the interoral camera did reveal that the tooth was fractured. Dr. Adler suspected that the tooth was more heavily damaged than it appeared since the teeth on both sided had visible damage due to the impact. A week after the fall, a portion of tooth #8 broke off due to the trauma it sustained during the accident. Dr. Adler determined that porcelain veneers should be placed on teeth #7-10 to restore the patient’s smile to its original brilliance.
-
- Katie after the accident
Tooth #10 (upper left tooth, second from the middle) did not have any visible fractures but needed to be restored partly as a precaution since not all damage from a fall is immediately apparent and mostly for aesthetics. It is recommended that front teeth especially should be restored in sets of two to insure that the patient’s smile remains symmetrical. Tooth #10 was already shorter than its counter part #7, so if Dr. Adler was to only restore the teeth that had visible fractures (# 7-9), then tooth #10 would appear short and out of place, giving the patient an uneven smile.
A veneer is a thin shell of porcelain that is bonded to a tooth to improve its color or shape. A veneer generally covers only the front and top of a tooth. Veneers can be used to close spaces between teeth, lengthen small or misshapen teeth, or whiten stained or dark teeth. When teeth are chipped, as in Katie’s case, or beginning to wear, veneers can protect them from damage and restore their original appearance.
Katie's Teeth After
Katie’s four upper front teeth were first shaped and roughened to prepare them for the veneers. Impressions were then taken of the teeth and sent to Aurum Ceramic Dental Laboratory, where the veneers were artistically custom crafted. Once the veneers had returned from the lab, they were cemented onto Katie’s teeth using a durable adhesive bond. The bond was then cured with a harmless high-intensity light. The pain Katie initial experienced from the accident was relieved after the veneers were placed. The final results were a beautiful and natural looking smile.
Trauma cause to a tooth in a fall can take several months before all the damage is known. A root can be fractured but not cause symptoms for several months after the accident. Dr. Adler was concerned that Katie might eventually need a root canal for that very reason. With this in mind, Dr. Adler specifically designed the veneers to allow an access opening for a root canal without damaging the porcelain restorations if one was needed at a later time.
Katie's Beautiful Smile After
Four months after the fall, Katie did begin to have symptoms in tooth #8 that warranted a root canal. The blood supply to the tooth was likely damaged in the accident but was not symptomatic until several months later. Dr. Adler referred Katie to Dr. Joseph Parsons of Boulder Endodontics, P.C. for the root canal. Dr. Parsons successful performed the root canal and the veneer was not damaged in the procedure. Because symptoms can develop long after the accident continuous follow up is needed to monitor the tooth’s nerves.
Katie is good as new and now her brilliant smile is the best ice breaker of all.

Getting Aligned with Invisalign – Invisible Braces
Jeff came to Dr. Adler of Adler Cosmetic & Family Dentistry seeking to brighten and straighten his smile. Dr. Adler sat down with Jeff and discussed exactly what Jeff’s expectations and goals were. He found that Jeff wanted his teeth to be healthy but also wanted them too look good and appear natural. Based on Dr. Adler’s thorough exam, he noted that Jeff had decay on several teeth and that one of his lateral teeth (#10 upper left next to middle front teeth) was peg shaped, under sized and out of proportion. He also saw that Jeff’s teeth were discolored and varied in shade, crowded, in an unhealthy bite, and had extreme wear and gum line problems. Dr. Adler recommended that Jeff first have fillings done to remove the decay and get his teeth healthy and then proceed with Invisalign and Zoom Whitening to straighten and brighten his teeth. He also recommended that Jeff restore his lateral teeth (#7 and 10, on either side of his upper front teeth) to their correct size and proportion with porcelain veneers. The fillings were important to do first not only to remove the decay before the cavity got worse but also because Jeff would not have been able to have any restorative work done once the Invisalign treatment had started until it was finished. This is because the trays that are used in the treatment are made all at once and progressively shift the teeth into position as the trays are changed out. If restorative work was done during treatment then the trays would not fit.
Jeff Before
For each tooth with a cavity, Dr. Adler removed the decay from the tooth and then placed tooth colored composite resin in the prepared tooth reshaping it to its original shape. A harmless curing light is used to harden and set the material. The tooth is then good as new and the filling is unnoticeable.
Once all the cavities had been restored with composite fillings, Dr. Adler was able to start the Invisalign. An impression of Jeff’s teeth and bite were taken and then sent to Invisalign labs. There a model of Jeff’s mouth was made and scanned as 3-D virtual image. They then made small incremental movements of the virtual teeth to simulate how the aligners would shift the teeth into their final position. Buttons, small tooth colored composite dots placed on selected teeth, were required to help certain teeth shift and rotate more. Once this virtual model was completed, it was sent to Dr. Adler for approval and/or modification. Once approved, the aligners were fabricated for the entire treatment phase and sent back to Dr. Adler. The buttons were places on the selected teeth and Jeff was given his first set of aligners. Each aligner was worn for about two weeks and each new aligner was slightly different to help slowly move the teeth into there proper position. The aligners were clear so it was hard for anyone to know that Jeff had “braces” on. They were removable for easy cleaning and were not worn when eating. Since Jeff had crowded teeth, IPR (inter proximal reduction) was required to give the teeth more room to move. IPR is a very simple and painless procedure that involves Dr. Adler filing a very minuscule portion between the teeth to create a small amount of space that the teeth will later move into. Treatment was completed in 6 month, much less time than traditional braces. The buttons were removed once treatment was done and clear aligner retainers were given to be worn at night to keep the teeth from shifting back.
Jeff had Zoom Whitening treatment done to brighten his new smile and remove the discoloration. The 
Zoom whitening gel was applied to each tooth and then cured with a high intensity curing light that activates the whitening gel. The Zoom light aids in activating the hydrogen peroxide and helps it penetrate the surface of the tooth. This procedure was repeated four times to maximize the whitening effect. After the treatment, Jeff had a noticeably brighter smile. He was given more whitening gel to use with his Invisalign retainers for any need touch up or maintenance bleaching.
Jeff After
Jeff’s two upper front teeth on either side of the middle teeth (#7 & 10) were first shaped and roughened to prepare them for the veneers. Impressions were then taken of the teeth and sent to Aurum Ceramic Dental Laboratory, where the veneers were artistically custom crafted. Once the veneers had returned from the lab, they were cemented onto Jeff’s teeth using a durable adhesive bond. The bond was then cured with a harmless high-intensity light. This final touch completed Jeff’s treatment and he now has exactly what he wanted, a straight and white natural looking smile. The results are stunning and Jeff loves showing off his smile now.

Full Mouth Reconstruction – Getting the Bite Right – Part 2
Peter after.
Phase 2 of treatment was reconstructing Peter’s teeth to his ideal bite so that the use of the orthotic would no longer be necessary. Every tooth was prepared for a ceramic crown, removing any decay or fractures that were present, and fitted with temporary crowns while the impressions of Peter’s teeth and bite were sent to the prestigious Aurum Dental Laboratory which is known for their quality and excellence. The ceramic crowns were individually crafted to not only look great but to also be functional and in the correct bite.
Once the lab finished fabrication of the crowns, Dr. Adler removed the temporaries and cemented on the permanent crowns. Peter’s treatment was conducted under the supervision of the esteemed Las Vegas Institute (LVI) where Dr. Adler was trained in the most advanced techniques of neuromuscular and cosmetic dentistry. Peter’s results are amazing and he is thrilled with how he looks and feels. His smile is now balanced, teeth look great, and his jaw is comfortable. He said that he is more confident and the look of his entire face has changed. He looks more youthful now that the atrophy on one side of his face is gone. Another change that Peter noticed was that he stopped biting his nails since his treatment started. Peter was a habitual nail biter most of his life, since treatment Peter has completely stopped chewing on his nails and cuticles. He believed it is because his bite changed and so it is no longer as easy to bite on his nails and also because he was using his figures as a subconscious crutch for his jaw that is no longer needed with his new bite. There is no question that Peter’s smile looks great and has greatly improved his life.

Full Mouth Reconstruction – Getting the Bite Right – Part 1
Peter before.
Peter was unhappy with his smile and was having trouble with crowns that he had done (and redone) in the past. Like many of us, Peter turned to the Internet to find his new dentist. Peter thought that Dr. Adler’s website was comprehensive and discussed several issues that he wanted addressed. When Peter came to our office, his teeth were fractured, worn, discolored, crowded and filled with metal fillings that were leaking. He also had bleeding and inflamed gums. His bite was over closed and he had alignment issues. Peter complained that he had pain in his front teeth constantly and had for many years. He also felt that his smile was crooked, discolored and felt stubbly. Peter had spent enough time in the dental chair fixing one tooth at a time. Peter wanted his teeth and gums to be healthy, look great and last a lifetime.
Peter’s fractured teeth, constant pain, over closure and alignment issues were all indications to Dr. Adler that Peter’s bite was not right and would continue to cause problems with his teeth until the issue was resolved. Dr. Adler recommended that Peter have a full mouth reconstruction that would consist of neuromuscular dentistry in conjunction with cosmetic dentistry to insure that his smile would not only look good but be functional and pain free. The phase 1 of Peter’s treatment was to find his ideal bite. The ideal bite places the patient’s plan of occlusion, which is an imaginary line that runs horizontally through the bite, at a 90 degree angel to the patient’s axis of gravity to insure that the forces of gravity and the bite force are distributed equally and don’t cause undue stress or stain on joints and muscles that can effect the entire body.
Before retracted view.
A bad bite caused Peter’s muscles to become overstressed and fatigued due to the constant strain of working in the wrong position. TENS or Transcutaneous Neural Stimulation was used to send electronic pulses to specific muscles in the face, neck, and back that allowed these overstressed muscles to elongate and come into their ideal resting positions. Peter had several TENS sessions during the course of his treatment to insure that the muscles were relaxing into their ideal positions for the best bite. In addition to the TENS, a K7 evaluation was used to help determine exactly where Peter’s ideal bite was and to monitor the progress of his treatment. The K7 evaluation entailed a) taking diagnostic casts of Peter’s mouth, b) running EMG (Electromyography) that measured his muscles at rest and during function-clench, c) CMS (Computerized Mandibular Scan) that displayed joint function, habitual freeway space, swallowing, and range of motion, d) Sonography measured joint sounds, and finally e) Myobite registration, which was an impression of Peter’s bite in its ideal position after TENS has been done. From the myobite, an orthotic was made to keep Peter in his ideal bite. TENS and any needed adjustments were made to the orthotic to make the bite as comfortable and functional as possible. Once Dr. Adler and Peter were satisfied with Peter’s bite, phase 2 of treatment began.
