Crowns and Veneers

Image
  Crowns and Veneers A bright smile is a strong communication symbol and creates a great first impression. A fundamental difference between veneers and crowns is how much of the tooth they cover over. Veneers only cover over the front surface of a tooth (the side that shows when the person smiles). A crown however, encases the entire tooth.    The  Family Smiles Dental  is suitably located at 1011 N Hwy 77, Ste 105, Waxahachie, is  the best option available and accepts Medicaid.

Are your teeth crooked, chipped or broken? Is it one tooth, are there a number of teeth that are a concern?    The Family Smiles Dent...

EXTRACTIONS
