Comprehensive restoration of front and chewing teeth with Straumann implants

Comprehensive restoration of front and chewing teeth with Straumann implants
Complaints:
Unsatisfactory smile aesthetics due to a chipped front tooth, discoloration and altered shape of the anterior teeth, as well as missing posterior teeth that impaired chewing and reduced overall comfort.
Diagnosis:
Aesthetic defect of the anterior teeth: fracture of the crown portion of tooth 2.1, enamel wear, and discoloration. Partial edentulism in the posterior regions involving teeth 3.6, 3.7, 4.6, and 4.7, resulting in reduced chewing efficiency.
Treatment:
A comprehensive diagnostic examination was performed, including a photographic protocol, CBCT imaging, and digital 3Shape scanning. Based on the collected data, digital smile planning and functional rehabilitation of the dentition were carried out. In the anterior region, the teeth were prepared and restored with metal-free E-Max ceramic restorations to recover proper shape, length, and aesthetics while eliminating existing defects. In the posterior regions, dental implants were placed and restored with zirconia crowns on Straumann implants to restore chewing function and occlusal stability.

In this case, the patient was concerned about a chipped front tooth, changes in the color and shape of the anterior teeth, and the absence of chewing teeth in the posterior regions.

In addition to aesthetic concerns, these issues resulted in reduced chewing efficiency and everyday discomfort.

During the examination, a fracture of the crown portion of tooth 2.1, enamel discoloration and wear of the anterior teeth, as well as partial tooth loss in the posterior regions of the lower jaw were identified.

To achieve full rehabilitation, it was necessary to address both aesthetic and functional problems simultaneously.

Treatment began with comprehensive diagnostics, including a photographic protocol, CT imaging, and digital 3Shape scanning.

After visualization of the future result, aesthetic rehabilitation of the anterior teeth was performed using metal-free E-Max ceramic veneers, restoring the shape, length, and natural appearance of the teeth.

To restore chewing function in the posterior regions, dental implant placement was performed, followed by prosthetic restoration with zirconia crowns on Straumann implants.

Result:

The aesthetic imperfections of the anterior teeth were eliminated, and their shape, color, and natural proportions were restored.

By replacing the missing chewing teeth, normal chewing function was restored, and the smile became harmonious, natural, and complete from both aesthetic and functional perspectives.
