COSMETIC DENTISTRY

There is no aspect of dentistry that has been as exciting and important to patients as cosmetic dentistry. It’s the part of dentistry that makes people WANT to come to visit their dentist.

Shows like "Extreme Makeover" have shown the public just what a difference a beautiful smile can make in people’s lives, and in our office, it’s no different. Having people beam over their new smiles really makes us feel happy about changing their lives for the better.

Cosmetic dentistry can be as simple as smoothing, contouring or reshaping your teeth to make them look more even, or round, or attractive. Or it can be placing ultra white, ultra thin porcelain laminates on each tooth like the movie stars, to produce the ultimate smile makeover.

Often it is a combination of whitening your teeth, a few crowns, or a few veneers, contouring the gums and biting edges, for greater function, uniformity, and beauty.


Dr. Gates began his Cosmetic Career in 1988 just two years after graduating from Marquette Dental School. Since then he has placed thousands of crowns and veneers, and helped hundreds of his patients achieve the smile of their dreams.
