I had all of my upper teeth restored with bonded porcelain by Dr. Gates and I love my teeth and my smile!  A couple of my friends that have been considering having cosmetic dentistry done have made appointments to see Dr. Gates as well.  Anyone considering having cosmetic dentistry should definitely meet with Dr. Gates first!
