Case Study: Replacing two front crowns

This patient had an accident at the age of 12, leading to root canal treatments on both of her central incisors. Large metal posts were inserted to restore the teeth, which unfortunately caused discolouration of the gums. Additionally, the right lateral incisor became nonvital and discoloured.

How does Dental Crowns treatment work?

Step 1: Diagnosis and planning

Using state-of-the-art technology, an incredibly thorough diagnosis and treatment plan are made. Although challenging, it was decided to use 6 implants in this case, as the software
indicated that this would be possible. A new smile is digitally designed, so that it fits perfectly with the patient’s face.

Step 2: Implant procedure and new teeth

On the same day, 6 implants, bone and soft tissue grafting and an immediate fixed bridge are placed. The patient can go home with the comfort of fixed teeth, after decades of using wobbly dentures. A few months later, a new zirconia bridge was fabricated on the upper jaw; the lower teeth were restored with zirconia crowns and bridges.
