When our patients come to our office with worn-out, yellow teeth and cavities, they usually do not even feel like taking care of their teeth. They sometimes do not even want to brush their teeth!

Another similar pattern is that when they think about a transformation, they usually request WHITE TEETH. They want it to be unrealistically white! 😅 Back in the day, I was discussing with our patients that it would look unnatural, maybe longer than I should. 🙏

Now, I think I understand how they feel. That has been an enormous struggle in their lives. They had confidence issues, pain and discomfort in so many different ways, including poor sleep quality!

Once they are in the transformation phase, they seek unrealistic changes. Our duty is to make our patients healthy and happy! Subjective changes in colour, surface texture, and translucency are different from patient to patient.

Our duty is to be the guide helping them get better in every possible way.

This patient was one of the patients who wanted that kind of change! We continue her treatment. We extracted some of her infected teeth and provided some permanent and some temporary restorations. She will have implants in the areas of missing teeth after healing.

Her journey continues, but when I hear that her quality of life changed even in the first part of her treatment, it makes me feel so blessed.

She came to us with bulky, mismatched old restorations and a bite that just didn’t work. Not only were the aesthetics off discoloured, exposed margins, awkward proportions but she had no proper bite guidance, making opening and closing a daily struggle.

We didn’t just design a prettier smile. We crafted a functional path. Using digital simulations, we previewed her new smile design, then ensured her bite had proper anterior and canine guidance. The result? A smile that’s not only smaller and harmonious, but a functional bite that feels right. Now, she’s confidently enjoying her smile inside and out.

From lifting weights to lifting confidence! Our bodybuilder patient wanted a bright, powerful smile to match his dedication, without sacrificing natural tooth structure. With posterior crossbite and alignment challenges, we opened his bite and added material in a minimally invasive, additive way to achieve ideal alignment. A touch of crown lengthening brought it all together for a smile as strong as his physique!

Some introductions are years in the making.

Before Dr. Andry Medina joined Toronto Smile Design as an associate dentist, he was already helping me create smiles.

While completing his Canadian dental equivalency exams, Andry worked at RDT Dental Lab and was my dental technician on many of our cases. Over those years, I got to see his work up close: the precision, the patience, the artistic eye, and the remarkably skilled hands behind it.

What I value most is that he understands a restoration from both sides. He knows what it takes to care for the tooth, and what it takes to create the piece that restores it. The shape, the material, the fit, the bite, all of those details matter.

He now brings that experience into our practice, with a particular focus on digital dentistry, CEREC, and same-day ceramic restorations for suitable cases. For our patients, that means care from a dentist who understands the entire process, from the first digital scan to the final polish.

Andry, it is a pleasure to continue our work together and welcome you to this new role.

Meet Dr. Andry Medina, an experienced dentist, a talented craftsman, and someone whose work I have trusted for years.

Sometimes the hardest cases are the ones that already look beautiful.

She came to us wanting to fine-tune her smile, a little wider, a little fuller, and more natural to her. But once we looked deeper, it became clear this wasn’t just an aesthetic case.

She had been dealing with jaw pain, grinding, and a bite that never really felt settled. During planning, we found that her CR and CO didn’t coincide, and she lacked proper anterior and canine guidance.

She had also already been through multiple rounds of orthodontics, Invisalign three times, bonding, retainers and years of trying to “fix” things. At that point, she was simply done with orthodontics.

So we took a prosthodontic approach.

The goal wasn’t to completely change her smile. It was to refine what was already beautiful while creating a bite that made more sense functionally.

A wider smile. Better guidance. Better harmony between the teeth and the jaw.

And probably my favourite part of her feedback was this: she can now laugh, throw her head back, and not think about her smile.

That’s the kind of result that doesn’t always show up in a before-and-after photo.

She lived with jaw pain, headaches, inflammation, limited opening, and difficulty chewing since she was 14 years old.

She tried night guards. She tried Invisalign. She had previous splint therapy.

But in her words, nothing had addressed what she eventually came to understand as an important part of her problem: her bite.

Her journey with us started with a detailed assessment, followed by upper and lower splint therapy to help us find a more stable and comfortable position. Once that stability was established, we carefully transitioned into temporary restorations, followed by the final restorative phase.

One of the most powerful things she said at the end of treatment was:

“It was kind of like I was walking with crutches my whole life… and now I have no crutches.”

She also said that for the first time, she finally understood what a more even, comfortable bite was supposed to feel like.

This is why we believe TMJ-related treatment should never be approached as a one-size-fits-all solution.

At Toronto Smile Design, we look at the complete picture: the joints, muscles, bite, teeth, function, comfort, and aesthetics before deciding what treatment may be appropriate for each individual patient.

If you have been dealing with chronic jaw pain, headaches, difficulty chewing, limited opening, or a bite that simply does not feel right, a comprehensive evaluation may help uncover what is contributing to your symptoms.

I’m excited to be speaking at Spectrum Day Toronto 2026 on November 6th at the Toronto Congress Centre.

My presentation, “Rediscovering the Ideal Bite: A Minimally Invasive Approach to TMD Relief with Digital Precision,” will explore how we can move beyond simply looking at static occlusion and begin understanding the patient’s bite as a dynamic, functional system.

I’ll be sharing our clinical workflow combining CBCT diagnostics, condylar assessment, MODJAW dynamic jaw tracking, splint therapy, and minimally invasive restorative dentistry to help us identify a comfortable and functional bite before moving forward with definitive treatment.

The goal is not to aggressively change the patient’s dentition. It is to diagnose first, understand function, test the position, and then restore as conservatively as possible.

I’m looking forward to sharing the cases, digital workflows, successes, challenges, and the clinical philosophy behind this approach with colleagues from across Canada.

See you in Toronto! 🇨🇦
