Dr. Joseph Goodman DDS DMD
One of the biggest misconceptions of patients is that cosmetic dentists are not general dentists. Before becoming a cosmetic dentist - a dentist who focuses on the esthetic, the bite, the comfort and the restorative aspect of your smile makeover - the dentist has to perfect the art of general dentistry, in fact he has to be a master of general dentistry before he can call himself also a cosmetic dentist.
My philosophy as a dentist is and always has been to respect the tooth and preserve as much tooth structure as possible. Whether in preparation for porcelain veneers, for dental crowns or any kind of dental restoration, I strive to minimize the amount of tooth reduction. It is for that reason I have perfected the art of minimal preparation.
