The left picture a crown was done after a fall fractured the front tooth. But which one? The picture on the right consists of a crown that was place on a malformed tooth to make it look natural.
This patient had some obvious dental problems. After gum therapy, crowns and a removable partial denture to fill in the gaps, the patient's whole attitude toward his teeth changed.
After years of dental neglect, the patient wanted to make a change and smile again. We placed four new crowns, and gave him back his smile.
This patient had trauma and a root canal performed on this tooth. With an all porcelain crown, we made it look natural again.
This patient had worn his teeth down to were they weren't seen when he smiled. Needless to say, the patient wanted his teeth whiter than what he had before. Six new all porcelain crowns to the right length let the patient show just the right amount of teeth when he smiled.
As old fillings fail and there is enough tooth structure to place another filling, tooth colored fillings can be used.
