Before & After

: Study Cases

Case # 1

Female (65)

 

One of the Previous labs made her mandibular canine (#22)  way bigger than her natural tooth size.

Also one of her dentists grounded down her opposite canine (#11) to close her bite.

That was a huge bad decision. Because, if we lose the right length and shape of the natural tooth,

that means is losing the original movements.

​

In particular, the canine's function is super important to prevent the wear down between

anterior and posterior. When we eat food each side canine is side to side raised up and down

to move, trying to make them not meet the maxillary and mandibular sides of the anterior and posterior,

which we call "CUSPID GUIDENCE OR CANINE GUIDENCE". [... See more in google]

​

Therefore, somehow she lost the original length and shape of both sides of the canine,

and the labs weren't made the right way to recover it, which means are no longer avoids

the defacement form of anterior and posterior. When she came to me, she lost her maxillary

and mandibular anterior length by about half of them already and it was even not take a year.

Unfortunately, she already spent more than $20,000 to re-open the bite, and for the strength

and restore the original length she needed to  make full-covered restorations for the

back to the original length and shape.

Case # 2

Male (56)

 

This patient's maxillary bites were shifted

to the left side for a long term somehow. [ Class III ]

The patient wants to make the bite

normal [ Class I ] without an orthodontic process,

therefore I have to be forced to

shift to the right side.

 

It was not an easy plan to make a dramatic result.

If we want to achieve the best result to bring it out,

there was must need teamwork with 

Dr., the technician, and patient,  good communication,

and a lot of  patience needed cooperation.

 

Consequentially, We could satisfy him with his new smile.

It was amazing teamwork, that is the reason

to succeeded in this case.

Case # 3

Female (42)

 

She did not have lateral (#10)  in her maxillary anterior. 

Dr. wants me to add a lateral between  the central

and canine without an orthodontic process.

​

Dr. and I decided to fully crown prep the canine

to support the new lateral by cantilever bridge.

Luckily she has a small space available for it

so I could layer 2 teeth on the one tooth which is canine.

Also to cover the separation shape of the teeth,

I had to add pink gingiva between them

so it may not be noticeable to the people about her situation.

 

As a result, it was very successful. It was in very limited condition,

but by comparison, it turned out naturally blended very well.
