Patient 5

Problem: One can appreciate the amount of past fillings that this gentleman has had, and the degree of filling deterioration and leakage.

Solution: due to limited finances, we were able to complete “transitional bonding” on the lower teeth, essentially completing composite crowns and overlays to the new planned bite height (planned off our blueprint, the diagnostic wax-up). He will change these to porcelain over the next 2-5 years as his finances allow. This allows a staged approach to treatment, whilst simultaneously correcting his bite.
