Tong Dental Care Smile Gallery
Every Smile Is Unique.
Every case on this page is a patient of ours, treated at our Gaithersburg or Clarksburg office by the same doctors you would meet if you came in. These are their photographs, taken before treatment began and after it was finished. Nothing here is a stock image or a model.
You will find before and after results across gum grafting and recession treatment, porcelain and composite veneers, front tooth crowns, dental implants and implant bridges, and orthodontic cases ranging from crowding to underbite correction. That range is only possible because our practice includes a periodontist, an orthodontist, and a general dentist with a master’s in prosthodontics, all working under one roof. Every mouth is different, so yours will be its own case. The best way to know what is realistic for you is a consultation.

BeforeAfter
Gum Recession Treatment with AlloDerm® Grafting
Gum recession along the lower front teeth, resulting from previous orthodontic treatment, aggressive brushing, and a high muscle attachment. A minimally invasive tunneling procedure using an AlloDerm® donor tissue graft achieved full root coverage and improved long-term stability.
BeforeAfter
Anterior Upper Gum Recession Treatment
Recession along the upper front teeth following years of aggressive brushing. A minimally invasive tunneling procedure with an AlloDerm® graft covered the exposed roots and restored a healthier, more even gumline.
BeforeAfter
Autogenous Root Coverage Graft
Significant recession around an upper canine had left the root exposed and sensitive. A connective tissue graft using the patient’s own tissue achieved full root coverage, resolved the sensitivity, and restored a natural gumline.
BeforeAfter
Autogenous Connective Tissue Graft
Thin gum tissue combined with previous fillings along the gumline had driven ongoing recession. A connective tissue graft using the patient’s own tissue improved root coverage, thickened the gums, and helped guard against future gum and bone loss.
BeforeAfter
Free Gingival Graft
Thin gum tissue around a lower molar had led to recession, sensitivity, and reduced stability. A free gingival graft added healthy keratinized tissue to strengthen the area and guard against future gum and bone loss.
BeforeAfter
Free Gingival Graft
A long-standing bridge had become difficult to clean due to limited keratinized tissue and a shallow vestibule. A free gingival graft added healthy tissue, improved stability, and restored proper access for cleaning.
BeforeAfter
Dental Implant
A fractured lower molar had developed an infection with significant bone loss. Following extraction, a bone graft rebuilt the site, and after healing, a dental implant and custom crown restored full function.
BeforeAfter
Front Tooth Implant
A failing front tooth with a persistent infection could not be saved. It was replaced with a carefully planned dental implant and custom crown, matched to the shape and shade of the surrounding teeth.
BeforeAfter
Implant Bridge
Trauma had cost this patient his front teeth, and he stopped smiling for years. Dr. Andrew Tong and Dr. Sunanda Bhushan worked together to restore both function and appearance with an implant-supported bridge.
BeforeAfter
Composite Veneers
Repeated chipping had left this patient unhappy with the appearance of her two front teeth. Minimally invasive composite veneers restored the shape and surface without removing healthy tooth structure.
BeforeAfter
Front Tooth Crowns
Extensive decay had compromised both front teeth beyond what a filling could restore. Full-coverage crowns, matched carefully in shape and shade, returned a natural appearance.
BeforeAfter
Traditional Braces
Significant crowding in the upper teeth left them misaligned and difficult to clean. Traditional braces brought the arch into alignment and produced a healthier, more even smile.
BeforeAfter
Orthodontic Treatment
Severe crowding and a narrow dental arch made this patient’s teeth hard to clean and affected her breathing. Orthodontic treatment aligned the teeth and widened the arch, improving hygiene, comfort, and appearance.
BeforeAfter
Underbite Correction
This patient was born with an underbite, a condition that can require jaw surgery to correct. Expanding the upper arch and aligning the teeth improved the bite and produced a balanced result without surgery.
BeforeAfter
Crowding and Crossbite Correction
Severe crowding, crossbites on the lateral incisors, and an uneven bite affected both function and appearance. Orthodontic treatment corrected the alignment and produced a more balanced, functional result.
BeforeAfter
Overbite Correction
A severe overbite placed excessive stress on this patient’s front teeth and interfered with normal bite function. Orthodontic treatment corrected the bite and improved alignment, creating a more stable long-term result.
