Before and After

Smile Gallery: Real Patients, Real Results

Before and after photos of our own work, grouped by treatment.

How the Gallery Works

Every Case Here is Our Own Work

Each pair of photos shows the same smile before and after treatment by our dentists. Cases are grouped by treatment and labeled by treatment only. Patient names are never shown.

If a result looks close to what you want, the treatment’s page explains how it works, and your consultation tells you whether it fits your teeth.

Many offices make a denture from a single impression. We take a custom impression that records how you open, close, smile, drink through a straw, cough and sneeze, so your denture is made for the way your mouth actually moves.

What Patients Say in Their Google Reviews

Dr. John Coleman and his staff are simple the Best. NO KA OI.

I could not be more pleased with Dr. Rice’s care of my long overdue dental treatment. I knew I could trust his recommendations from our first consultation. He did a wonderful job of attending to the work with patience for my fear, he and his staff have treated me to the most kindness and professionalism I could have ever asked for. My mouth is pain free for the first time in a couple of years and it has made a world of difference. I don’t think anyone should go anywhere else for their dental concerns. I am glad I was referred by a friend and would recommend Dr. Rice and his support staff at Coleman Dentistry very highly.

Such a great experience! I have always been terrified of going to the dentist. They were so nice and professional. Made getting a filling an easy and comfortable time. And a big shout out to Imani!!! She was awesome and made my day 🙂

From the front office to the hygienist to the Doctor, this place is top notch. Amazing customer service and attention to detail. I don’t like going to the dentist but Coleman Denistry makes it less stressful.

I ( we) have been to many dentists ( dental offices) over the years. This one is exceptional in every way. Starting with absolutely lovely people from the dentists to all the staff. They leave no stone unturned to make patients feel welcome, comfortable, and cared about. And the dental work and care is the best I have Ever experienced. I don’t even live in the area any more, yet I return. Believe me other dental practices and staff could take a lesson ( or two) from this one. Such a blessing. I am grateful.
