Case No. 10

The patient presented with a range of issues: chronic periodontitis, inflamed gums, outdated composite restorations, aesthetic discomfort, and bruxism (teeth clenching).

Comprehensive approach and treatment stages:

Diagnostics: a full dental check-up, including assessment of gum health and occlusion.

Preparation: professional oral hygiene, removal of wisdom teeth, and retreatment of the root canal in the affected tooth.

Bite harmonization: fabrication of a deprogramming splint to relieve muscle tension.

Aesthetic restoration: digital planning and fabrication of a complete set of ceramic veneers and crowns for both the upper and lower jaws.

Result: healthy gums, ideal chewing function, and a natural smile the patient had long dreamed of. The entire comprehensive treatment — from the first consultation to the final adjustments — was completed in approximately 5 months.
