broken flipper for 20+ years
Smile Transformation by Dr. Assadi
This patient had been wearing a broken flipper for 20+ years due to congenitally missing lateral incisors. She had no idea that we could transform her smile so that she did not have to wear a broken flipper. I went through the process of what it would take to get her maximum benefits, optimal esthetics and proper functioning of new teeth. We first started with a diagnostic wax-up and photos so that we could see how many teeth would need to be involved and what it would entail. When the proposed wax-up came back to us from the lab, we did a "try-in" of her future smile. We deducted from the try-in that she would need crown lengthening surgery with the periodontist, two sets of 3-unit bridges and 2 veneers. And we did just that. The entire process took 4 months. We allowed 3 months of healing after her gum surgery.
damaged tooth extracted
Smile Transformation by Dr. Assadi
Patient presented with a fractured post and crown on a central incisor. The broken tooth was non-restorable. The Patient opted for the broken tooth to be extracted and for a single implant to be surgically placed. Due to tooth size discrepancies in her smile zone, she needed to have the neighboring teeth altered to avoid having non-proportionate central incisors. We had to do a diagnostic wax-up to see how many teeth would need to be modified to fit a proper size implant crown. We delivered a balanced smile with 3 veneers and one implant crown. The process took 4 months from initial appointment to final appointment.
