July 2007 - failing teeth saved with a combination of gum treatment, implants, orthodontics, crowns, and a precision denture

This lady in her early fifties suffered from adult periodontitis which caused her gums to recede, leaving unsightly gaps between her teeth. She had lost some of her upper back teeth, and wanted the crowding of her lower front teeth corrected.

teeth before treatment

The first phase of her treatment was to treat the gum disease. One of her lower front teeth was removed, and the other three repositioned with a brace to correct the crowding.

Two implants were then placed in her lower jaw, to replace the missing molar teeth. Since she wasn’t prepared to have bone grafts to the sinuses, it was decided to replace the missing upper back teeth with a precision denture. Her remaining upper teeth were prepared, and a temporary bridge fitted.

teeth after treatment

The temporary bridge was in place for six months while the orthodontic and gum treatments were completed. The final bridges were then cemented, and the precision-denture attached to them.
