Aesthetics Restorative Dentistry
At Smile Dental, we understand that a broken tooth can be a daunting experience. Many of our patients are referred to us by their dentists because they have a broken tooth that is beyond restoring. However, our experienced team of White Rock dentists knows that the clinical presentation is often more complex than at first glance. That’s why we take a comprehensive approach to address not just the offending tooth, but also the underlying factors that lead to tooth breakage.
Sometimes teeth fracture because of trauma, such as a sports injury or accidentally biting into a hard object. Other times, a fractured tooth is only one sign of a larger breakdown of the dentition and the overall bite, especially in middle-aged or more elderly individuals. We know that repairing only the offending tooth site will only mask the problem and will not prevent future breakdown. That’s why we develop a thorough treatment plan to address the unfavorable patterns and conditions that lead to tooth breakage, ensuring that our patients receive the best possible care.
Our philosophy is that dental treatment should not be undertaken unless a complete treatment plan is developed. As a patient, you should be aware of the expected clinical outcome before work begins. That’s why we believe in starting with the end in mind, and proper planning paves the road to long-term success. Our experienced dentist, Dr. William Liang, has extensive experience in full-mouth dental reconstruction, which includes surgical and prosthetic phases of treatment to restore a broken-down dentition from beginning to end. We will be happy to discuss and guide you through our systematic process of diagnosis and treatment planning. Our motto is to provide dentistry that looks good, feels good, and lasts a long time.
What is aesthetic restorative dentistry?

What are some common treatments in aesthetic restorative dentistry?
Common treatments include dental implants, porcelain veneers, dental crowns, dental bonding, and teeth whitening.
Who is a candidate for aesthetic restorative dentistry?
Anyone who has damaged or missing teeth and wants to improve their smile and overall oral health can be a candidate for aesthetic restorative dentistry.
How long does the treatment take?
The length of treatment depends on the type and severity of the issue. Some treatments can be completed in one visit, while others may take multiple visits over several weeks.
Is aesthetic restorative dentistry painful?
Most aesthetic restorative treatments are not painful, as local anesthesia is used during the procedure. Some patients may experience discomfort or sensitivity after the treatment, but this can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain medication.
How long do the results last?
The results of aesthetic restorative treatments can last for many years, but the longevity depends on factors such as oral hygiene and lifestyle habits.

As with any dental procedure, there are some risks and potential side effects, such as infection, swelling, and sensitivity. However, these are rare and can usually be prevented or managed with proper care.
How much does aesthetic restorative dentistry cost?
The cost of treatment varies depending on the type and extent of the treatment needed. Your dentist can provide you with a personalized cost estimate.
Will my insurance cover aesthetic restorative dentistry?
It depends on your insurance plan and the specific treatment needed. Some treatments may be partially or fully covered, while others may not be covered at all.
How do I know which aesthetic restorative treatment is right for me?
Your dentist will evaluate your dental health and discuss your goals to determine the best treatment plan for your needs. They will also provide you with information on the benefits and risks of each treatment option.

Increased Root Coverage & Gum Thickness
We successfully achieved increased root coverage and gum thickness through a targeted treatment approach, resulting in improved periodontal health and enhanced aesthetics for the patient.
Congenitally Missing Laterals

My wife has relied on Dr. Liang for approximately 25 years. She has had several crowns and an implant plus regular cleaning. Most recently, she had gum repair surgery. Dr. Liang is very skilled, and his staff are friendly and professional. His office uses the latest techniques and equipment. Very highly recommended.

My dental implants experience with Dr. William Liang was superb! The feeling of self-worth that was given to me is priceless. The staff was amazing and very kind in helping me with my teeth implants needs. My teeth now look so natural and I can’t begin to imagine that was ever possible. I can not thank Dr. William Liang enough for his professionalism. I will surely refer Smile Dental Implant Center to anyone in need of teeth implants. I will definitely return for my future dental implants soon!

Wonderful dental team. Passionate about their work. They went above and beyond to make the dental implants or teeth implants possible for me. Dr. William Liang is excellent! The assistant was so patient and compassionate too and they work so well together. We have been bragging so much about how awesome our experience was that my other 2 daughters and my sisters are coming with me to Surrey for my follow-up so they can meet everyone! I’m very very grateful and without a doubt made the right choice to have my dental implants or teeth implants done here. You will never know how much this has meant to me!!! Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
