Patient: Female patient, 26 years old
After a past orthodontic treatment, the patient was unhappy with the appearance of her upper teeth. The patient`s main concern was to improve the appearance of her smile, especially regarding the shape of the upper anterior teeth. The challenge in this patient was to harmonize the smile and the shape of the upper anterior teeth, recreating a proportional dental shape, correcting the volume in the posterior area, but always with the minimum possible preparation of the dental structure.
Results: The final result achieved with the ceramic veneers corresponded to the patient’s expectations, correcting the smile, improving the shape, volume and dental proportion. Patient’s satisfaction was obtained.
Final modifications of mock-up to get desired outcome/smile improvement and gingival contour correction using 3M™ Protemp™ Plus Temporization Material.
For minimal invasive tooth preparation, the mock-up helps to control thickness. A pencil is used to highlight the groove depth.
