Putting a smile on is one of the greatest privileges we have as humans, unfortunately, there are many reasons holding us back. As smile creators, we aim to give people the ability to smile, eat, and be confident; it is one our greatest privileges. Here we remove all hopeless teeth and placed upper and lower implants and restored with fixed hybrid zirconia prosthesis. Patient was in tears, but with a smile on his face 😬😁😃

Transformative case, this time without any surgical aspect or implants. Patient had very bulky/opaque work done overseas and had lost a lot of confidence in smiling. We decided to change that for her with beautiful translucent zirconia and gum-lift. Patient was very happy with the results and can’t wait to do the bottom.

Veneers have become increasingly popular and there are many ways to accomplish the end result. In the end it is hard for a patient to know who will provide the right process. At Vida Dental, the most important factors are 1) ensure minimal preparation (tooth shaving), 2) proper bonding (strongest retention to natural tooth), 3) proper tissue conditions (gum health and contours), and 4) the best ceramics (strength and cosmetic results).

Implants have been a great way for patients to replace missing teeth, however, classic bridges are still a reliable and predictable approach for restoring similes. Here we completed bridges and individual crowns for our patient to renew the smile and bring back form, function, and confidence.

Transformative before and after for this amazing patient. Patient had severe bruxism and rampant decay leading to fractured and broken teeth. We completed full mouth extractions upper and lower, placed implants, delivered temps, waited 3 months for healing and delivered fixed zirconia hybrids. Patient was absolutely thrilled with the result; amazing work from front-office team, back-office, and clinical lab.
