Case: Dental implants to retain a lower denture
Before
After
Vivian, ages 84, was wearing a full set of upper and lower dentures. The lower denture was loose and therefore two dental implants were placed and connected to the dentures using ‘locators’. She was extremely satisfied with the new lower dentures which were now stable. Her remark “i can now eat steak, which i havent been able to eat for the past 20 years has made a remarkable difference to my lifestyle’.

After
Paul attended with missing two front teeth. Both teeth were replaced with dental implants. His treatment required bone grafting (to be done at the same time as placing his implants), which meant a total duration of 9 months to complete his treatment. Paul doesn’t have to wear a denture any more and is extremely happy with his end result. So are we. Case done by Kushal Gadhia.

As she had a high lip line showing these gaps when she smiled, we constructed a gum veneer (a removable appliance) which gave her the confidence to smile again
Case: Gum Grafting using alloderm
Judy presented with recession around her lower incisor tooth, following brace treatment. The recession was managed using one surgical procedure with minimal post operative swelling/side effects.

Case: Gum Grafting for increased Keratinised Tissue (Free Gingival Graft)
Benefits of the free gingival graft
-
Increase vestibular depth to allow for better access for oral hygiene measures
-
Improve the amount of attached keratinised tissue and augmentation
-
Provide more robust tissue
A combination of simple treatment and soft tissue grafting has helped the patient in many ways:
-
Her symptoms of discomfort have improved
-
There is much reduced bleeding on brushing
-
There is no plaque or calculus deposits
