“Mr. C” came to our facility a few months ago looking to improve his smile. Having always struggled with his dentition, Mr. C. hoped that Dr. Nick Navarro would have a solution for his issue. Upon diagnosis, we discovered that his arch was too narrow, and that he had an overbite. In addition to this, Mr. C’s teeth were discolored and severely worn from years of use and wear. Upon reviewing his case, Dr. Navarro decided to move forward with a full mouth reconstruction.
In consideration of the issues Mr. C came to Navarro Dental Group with, we have several problems to solve during this case. Naturally, we wanted to broaden the patient’s bite and help correct his malocclusion. We also had to diminish his overbite during this process, and through both processes were able to balance his smile. Lastly, we collaborated with Mr. C. to find the best shade to suit his smile and goals, and were able to improve the color of his teeth.
This case was treated without the use of bridge; instead we opted to use individual crowns and veneers to add to the authenticity of the patient’s smile. In the end, Mr. C left with a beautifully balanced, shaded, and fitting smile.
