Concerns:
This patient had lost the teeth on the entire left side of her upper jaw and was finding it very difficult to eat, not to mention the embarrassment whenever she even just opened her mouth. She also had an existing porcelain bridge on the right side which she hated due to the darker colour. She was desperate to be able to eat properly and to smile again with confidence. Another problem was that she was very nervous due to bad past dental experiences.
Solutions:
Treatment involved placing 4 implants in the left side of her upper jaw, fitting a permanent fixed implant supported bridge to give her teeth again, and replacing her discoloured existing bridge with a brand new porcelain bridge that matched her new teeth on the left hand side. The result is one very happy patient who can eat anything she pleases , is smiling again and has regained her confidence in dentists.
