About the studio
A small studio
for considered smiles.
We are a cosmetic-led dental studio in Crestline, built around long appointments, one dentist per case and the belief that the best work is the kind nobody can quite place.
The people who design and make your smile.
Aperture is deliberately small. The dentist who designs your case is the dentist who prepares and fits it, working with a ceramist we have partnered with for years. Nothing is handed off to whoever is free.
I would rather do a few smiles a month properly than a full diary of teeth that all look the same. The work should fit the face it lives on.Dr. Sylvie MarchettiFounder & Cosmetic Dentist

Why "Aperture"
A smile is a matter of light.
In a camera, the aperture decides how light lands and what stays in focus. Cosmetic dentistry is the same trick: the way porcelain catches light, the length of an edge, the balance across a smile. Get those right and the result looks effortless.
That is why every case here begins behind a camera, not a drill.
How we work
We keep the diary short so cosmetic cases get long, unhurried appointments and one dentist start to finish.
A handful of smile designs in progress at a time, never a conveyor.
We show you the preview before any drilling, in a mock-up you can wear and veto in the mirror.
You approve the shape and shade first, always.
We treat the natural tooth as the thing to protect, not the thing to replace.
Conservative prep and honest maintenance over quick, heavy work.
