William struggled for years with dental phobia and had avoided visiting the dentist. However, aggressive gum disease in both his upper and lower jaw, as well as subsequent painful, loose teeth began impacting his quality of life. He was also finding it difficult to manage his many public speaking engagements. The time had come to look at possible treatment options.
Complete clinical assessment and 3D imaging confirmed that his remaining teeth could not be saved and would need to be removed. William wanted to avoid dentures at all costs so All-on-4 was determined to be the best treatment option.
William had his remaining teeth removed and implants placed under twilight sedation in one visit. A few days later, he came back to the clinic to have Dr Dunn check the fit and make adjustments to his temporary tooth bridge, which he wore during his healing period. Six months later, William had his Signature tooth bridges fitted and can now speak and smile with confidence again.
