Direct repairs to a damaged smile

October 24, 2011 by Ian Kerr

This case shows one part of what was a comprehensive overhaul (repairs) of every single tooth, involving direct restorations, root canal fillings, crowns, extractions and dentures. The part I am showing here is the part affecting the front teeth which were badly worn, stained and misaligned.

Given the extensive nature of the restorations for the back teeth we elected to do direct fillings to minimise tooth reduction and to reduce overall fees. As we were changing the bite as part of the treatment it was also helpful to work with a material that can be adjusted and added to easily in the mouth over a period of weeks as the new bite is accommodated.

Lengthy treatment plans such as these need to be staged over several months and require multiple visits but the results can be very rewarding, giving improved comfort and confidence and avoiding the loss of multiple teeth. If you are worried about the health of your teeth and are looking for a comprehensive approach to your care then please give us a call on 01580 752202 and book an initial consultation today. We will discuss every option with you and will give you a full written report itemizing all costs before we begin any treatment.
