SMILE GALLERY

This patient’s entire lower bridge and six implants were placed in just over an hour. Thirteen years later, everything is still great.

This patient had numerous loose teeth when she arrived at my office. She had actually pulled some of them out herself and put them back in because she was embarrassed to not have a full set of teeth.  She had wide gaps between them, too. And, she was sure she would need dentures. After bone supplementation and six implants, in addition to meticulous periodontal treatment, I was able to save her front teeth and they actually moved back together without orthodontics!

This patient’s front teeth were continually breaking due to his grinding habit. You can see extensive wear on nearly all of his teeth, particularly the front teeth. After TMJ-directed full mouth therapy to reduce his grinding habit, I was able to restore his function and esthetics with all-porcelain Zirconium crowns on his upper teeth and laminates on his lower front teeth. Because cost was an issue, I only used white fillings in the lower back teeth. After 11 years he feels more comfortable than ever, looks great, and is still going strong! 

This patient’s fractured (and painful) tooth was transformed into a beautiful, natural-looking implant. The process took approximately eight weeks.
