Cosmetic Dentistry Focused on Natural Results
Each smile makeover starts with a consultation. As a University of Washington-trained dentist with years of hands-on patient experience, Dr. Backus takes notice of details such as the shape, color, spacing, and how well the smile contours to the face. The goal is never to produce a smile makeover that is a “one-size-fits-all” look, but a smile that is natural and truly feels like you.
