When the orthodontic treatment was completed, we began replacing the patient’s metal-ceramic crowns. As these crowns have a metal core, they give the crowns a greyish colour, so we opted for all-ceramic crowns, restoring aesthetics and mimicking the rest of the teeth. With the orthodontic treatment and the new fixed rehabilitation, we were able to give the patient a beautiful, natural smile. Oral Rehabilitation – Case 1 Dr. Margarida Palmela | Dr. Inês Santos
Clinical Cases
The patient came to our clinic unhappy with her smile, particularly with the crowns on the upper incisors and the lower left lateral incisor that had been made in a previous treatment. A clinical examination revealed the presence of an anterior open bite and deviation of the lower midline. Orthodontic treatment with bimaxillary fixed braces and micro-implants was proposed and accepted.
