CASE 1 – FEMALE PATIENT
This patient was unhappy with her old bridge on her upper front teeth. The teeth were the wrong colour and were not the same height. There are several options to fill a space but here replacing the old bridge was the most cost effective way to go.
Procedure:
The teeth were bleached first to brighten everything up a bit, then the old bridge was removed and a new three tooth porcelain bridge fabricated. Some gum recontouring was done to make the teeth appear the same height. The patient was very happy with the result.

CASE 2 – FEMALE PATIENT
This patient had two front teeth missing from birth. She had spent most of her adolescence with a partial denture or retainer to fill the spaces. Denture and retainers are removable which she didn’t like. She wanted something permanent. Filling spaces like this can be done with bridges or implants.
Procedure:
The placements of two bridges were placed permanently to fill the gaps, and lengthen the canines (which were a bit short). The result is quite dramatic, permanent, and she doesn’t have to remove them at night. She was very happy.
