Patient cases

Ida is a fitness influencer with a camera pointed at her most days, and she came to Cali on a recommendation. Her porcelain veneers were designed for brightness and symmetry that still read as her own on video.

Henrik flew to Cali to keep a friend company through their treatment, spent a week watching it from the waiting room, and booked his own. He went home with 20 porcelain veneers he had not planned on when he packed.

Bryce traveled from Orlando with his family to replace an older set of resin composite veneers. The resin came off, the teeth were prepared again, and porcelain went on: a harder surface that holds its color better than the material it replaced.

Griffin is a chiropractor in Los Angeles and thinks about alignment for a living. He came to Cali with his mother and asked for the same thing in his smile: veneers set to a more symmetrical line, upper and lower.

Ana spent years looking for a way to close the gap between her two front teeth. She flew in from Miami and the answer was two porcelain veneers, shaped to match the teeth beside them so the closure does not read as dental work.

Reese came from Los Angeles for the bright, even look he had wanted for years, and stayed long enough to see the city. He went home with a full set of porcelain veneers and a lot to say about Cali.

Nawfal wanted the small spaces between his teeth gone and nothing else touched. Each veneer was made slightly wider than the tooth under it, which closes the gaps without leaving the teeth looking oversized.

Veronica came from Mexico to Cali for porcelain veneers. Her before and after is the part of her case she agreed to publish.

Cade's plan in Cali was a full rebuild: an outdated resin design removed and 20 porcelain veneers designed in its place, upper and lower. Redoing the whole arch let the team set the proportions of the smile from scratch instead of working around them.

Eric flew in from Florida with his family and turned the treatment week into a trip. His porcelain veneers closed the spaces between his teeth and evened out the color, while the lab in Cali built the set between appointments.

Faustina, an Argentinian living in Atlanta, came to GR Dents on a referral. She asked for a change of shape and shade rather than a different smile, so the veneers were drawn around her own features.

Jantasia came from Florida with her family for a complete redesign. A full set of porcelain veneers was planned from her consultation, then made in the lab in Cali from detailed impressions so each one seats on its own tooth.

Malique came from New York asking for the bright, uniform look people call a Hollywood smile. Twenty porcelain veneers were planned to carry it without taking over his face.

Alexis had porcelain veneers made at the clinic in Cali. The before and after shows the change in color and in how full the smile sits across the front teeth.

A porcelain veneers case finished at the clinic in Cali. Ashly agreed to publish her before and after; the rest of her plan stays with her.

Breanna came from Atlanta wanting her own smile back, only tidier. The veneers were matched to the color, shape and translucency of the teeth she already had, so what changed is the symmetry and the brightness, not the character.

Carmen wanted a smile as cheerful as she is. The shade and the shape of her porcelain veneers were settled together in the consultation, so the result came out bright without looking painted on.

Deidra's composite veneers had worn and darkened over the years. She swapped them in Cali for porcelain, a non porous ceramic that keeps its color far longer than the resin it replaced.

Jalissa trains people for a living in New York and needed a smile that could keep up. She chose porcelain over composite for the harder surface, and the set was built to take an active schedule.

Jhon is from Cali and treated his smile as an investment in how he shows up at work. A full set of porcelain veneers changed the color and the line of the teeth that show when he talks.

Jordy asked for a broader, more defined smile rather than a whiter one. The veneers were drawn with wider proportions so the arch fills out at the corners when he smiles.

Joy's brief was elegance, not brightness. The design work went into texture and a shade that grades gently from the gum down, which is what keeps a set of veneers from reading as flat white.

Nicolas had porcelain veneers made at the clinic in Cali. His before and after shows a whiter, more symmetrical smile across the teeth that show when he talks.
