Dr. Marina Rubinshtein

Dr. Marina offers porcelain veneers, composite bonding, in-office and take-home teeth whitening, black triangle correction and cosmetic crown replacements, along with dental crowns and bridges. She has spent more than 24 years in private practice focused on general, cosmetic and restorative dentistry, and sees patients at Bensonhurst Dental, 1872 80th St, Brooklyn.

Porcelain veneers are thin ceramic shells made in a dental lab. They resist staining and suit bigger changes to color, shape and spacing. Composite bonding is tooth-colored resin sculpted onto the tooth in one visit, which works well for small chips, gaps and stains, but it stains and chips more easily than porcelain. Dr. Marina recommends one after looking at your teeth and hearing what you want to change.

She plans the shape, length and shade of each restoration around your face and your other teeth. Our in-house dental lab makes the work, so shade and fit can be adjusted between visits before anything is bonded in place.

Yes. Older crowns, especially ones with a metal base, can show a gray line at the gum as the gums recede over time. Dr. Marina replaces them with ceramic crowns matched to the color of the surrounding teeth.

She examines your teeth and gums, asks what you would like to change, and explains which treatments fit, how many visits they take and what they cost before any work begins. Book online or call (718) 234 3434 to schedule.
