Dr. Ravin recently appeared on Better Connecticut to showcase the unique cosmetic work he performed on one of his patients.  John Hill drank only bottled water for several years while working overseas, keeping him from receiving sufficient amounts of fluoride, a substance often found in tap water that helps prevent decay. To compensate for this shortage, John took fluoride supplements but ended up taking too much, which resulted in his teeth turning a yellowish-brown color.

The discolored teeth affected John’s self-confidence and forced him to avoid smiling for years, that is until he visited Dr. Ravin.

To correct John’s discolored teeth, Dr. Ravin applied crowns to the teeth and also improved the gum line for straighter, more even teeth. The result was beautiful, bright teeth that John is now proud to show off! His confidence has been restored and he happily smiles everywhere he goes.

To learn more about how Dr. Ravin transformed John’s smile, watch the video below.
