This patient experienced a traumatic accident that resulted in the loss of their four upper front teeth. Naturally, this had a significant impact not only on function but also on confidence in their smile. We discussed several treatment options, including a conventional bridge, a removable partial denture, and dental implants. After reviewing the benefits of each, implants offered the most stable and natural-looking solution.
Restoring a Smile with an Implant-Supported Bridge
I placed two dental implants and used CAD/CAM custom abutments to ensure precision and a perfect fit. A zirconia bridge was then crafted to replace the missing teeth. The result was a durable, functional, and beautiful restoration that blended seamlessly with the patient’s natural smile.
This case is a powerful example of how implant-supported restorations can restore both appearance and confidence after trauma. The artistry in making the new teeth look natural was incredibly rewarding, and seeing the patient’s smile return was the best part of the transformation.
