Porcelain bridge

Debbie with her beautiful new smile!

Problems:

All porcelain bridge plus
ridge augmentation

As a teenager, Debbie broke a front tooth in a figure skating accident. It turned black, had root canal, eventually cracked and had to be extracted. The bridges that replaced it always looked fake. There was something unnatural about their look or colour and they had a dark line around the gum.

Dr. Blitz created a new bridge to correct all these shortcomings.

He even made certain that the scar on her gum disappeared.

In order to provide more ideal lip support, and to look as if the missing tooth was growing from the gum, he had the gum built-up where the damaged tooth was extracted.

Now for the first time since she was a teenager, her smile looks as beautiful and natural as it was before her accident all those years ago.
