A.D.S. Reviews

I searched every dentist in the Southeast before deciding on Dr. Boulden to have my dentistry done. I'm glad I did. I swear it almost get old the amount of "you have a beautiful smile" comments I get from strangers now........well almost :-)

For the first time in my life, I have complete confidence in my dental team. After several years of looking for a good dentist, finding them has been fantastic.

Cosmetic Dentistry Do’s and Dont’s

The top 3 mistakes dentists make when trying to deliver cosmetic dentistry procedures are as follows:

Don’t make the teeth look fake!

  • Many times patients come to us and explain that they want a REALLY white smile.  Sometimes dentists hear this and mistakenly use a really white porcelain over the teeth – resulting in big, white Chicklet-looking teeth.
  • Unfortunately the patient ends up with a smile that people notice — but for the wrong reason.  People ask “What did you have done to your teeth???”  And, what’s worse, is that the patient with the new ugly smile paid a LOT of money for that result.

Do make really white, yet natural-looking teeth!

  • It takes a lot of knowledge, experience, and skill for a dentist to truly understand how to create a beautiful, white and STILL natural result.
  • Luckily, our Atlanta cosmetic dentists understand every aspect of creating beautiful smiles.   Our dental team knows how to — in every different case — build in natural characteristics that reflect all different types of light so that the appearance is beautiful and still natural.
  • Even in the most DRAMATIC smile transformations, we want our patients to have smiles that noticed for all the right reasons.  When Atlanta Dental Spa patients smile, people tell them “Wow! You have such a beautiful smile!”  And our patients simply say “Thank you!”  People don’t realize that Atlanta Dental Spa patients have “had something done.”

Don’t make a tilted/canted smile!

  • Even with the most gorgeous results, if a smile is tilted in the face or smile, it’s noticeably distracting.  A skilled cosmetic dentist uses several tools and tricks to ensure that the smile results are properly aligned with the patient’s face and smile.
  • Our Atlanta Dental Spa team members take pride in achieving excellent results with every patient we treat.  We have several techniques and tools designed especially to avoid tilted or canted results.
  • We want to be the very best cosmetic dentists, and in order to maintain this position, we make sure we have the technology available to deliver perfectly beautiful, straight smiles for every Atlanta Dental Spa client.

Don’t perform cosmetic dentistry without understanding function/occlusion!

  • It takes a lot of extra education AFTER dental school in order to gain proper knowledge of the forces in the mouth (a part of dentistry called occlusion).
  • If a dentist does not fully understand these forces and the TMJ joints (jaw joints), you may end up with porcelain veneers that chip, break, fracture and pop off.
  • This can be an extremely frustrating and embarrassing problem for patients.  Especially after having spent a lot of money for a new smile.

At Atlanta Dental Spa, our doctors are highly trained in these forces of occlusion.  They understand how to set up a case from the very beginning so that the forces are properly distributed.  We do this to avoid porcelain fracture and veneers popping off.  At Atlanta Dental Spa, we like to ensure that our work lasts a long time.  Our patients appreciate that.
