AFTER:
 
When a patient meets Dr. Mariana and they want a new brighter smile, it feels like they are getting to know someone who understands exactly what they are looking for. Dr. Mariana is accurate in matching esthetic restorations not only to the smile, but also to the lips, complexion, and the overall appearance of each individual.

Dr. Mariana has a trained eye that finds each patient the shape and shade that works best for them. Dr. Mariana believes that full mouth restorations can increase a patients quality of life and self-esteem by giving them back function and form, but it is not for everyone. You may sometimes achieve beautiful results with a more conservative approach. Dr. Mariana likes to emphasize that maintaining a proper oral hygiene and visiting the dentist at least once a year is essential for smile beauty.

"I feel so fortunate to have Dr. Conant as my Cosmetic Dentist. My smile has changed from discolored aged crowns with margins to natural healthy looking teeth. My natural teeth were beautifully restored and corrected as well to complete the total appearance.

I love my new smile, in fact I can't stop smiling. Dr. Conant was so attentive to the desired results and the experience was comfortable and pleasant for me."

Elaine Harris
"The first thing a person notices when they meet someone is their smile. After Dr. Mariana worked her magic on my teeth, people have actually stopped me and commented on how beautiful my smile is.

Dr. Mariana's team is friendly, efficient, and truly cares about the happiness and well-being of their patients. I recommend her to anyone looking to improve the color or condition of their teeth. There is now no reason to fear the dentist. She is very gentle and caring. I absolutely love my new smile!"

Paul Kevin
"Dr. Conant recently restored my four front teeth with beautiful veneers. I love them. She provided a pain free procedure, taking lots of time to assure that the fit, shape and color were perfect. Along with being a perfectionist, she has a great chairside manner and is a total professional."
