This patient presented with a failing dentition due to severe periodontal disease. We removed the teeth and replaced them with implant-supported zirconia hybrid restorations. The swelling on the lower left was biopsied and came as peripheral ossifying fibroma, an inflammatory lesion. Neodent GM implants provided excellent stability for the immediate healing prosthesis. I had placed some additional implants on the upper arch as insurance but decided not to use them to keep the prosthesis simple.bruneau.neodent.ne

A little Teflon tape is very useful to adapt matrices in touch situations.

This patient had a trauma on the front tooth and subsequently got a root canal to save the tooth. Teeth often turn dark in these situations. In this case, I was able to bleach the tooth with a combination on internal and single tooth external bleaching. The whole process took about 6 weeks. This is much more conservative than doing a crown to cover the dark tooth. A small amount of bonding was done to rebuild the chipped incisal edge.

anuragguptadmd When fillings are done with proper technique and under proper isolation, they feel good and last longer. Many dentists think that a rubber dam is inconvenient, but it allows me to do high quality restorations with great efficiency. I am surprised by how many patients fall asleep while getting work done with a rubber dam.

Lateral sinus lift is my favorite procedure. I wanted to try my new Piezo today but realized that I have ordered the wrong tips 😭. Back to the trusty round bur. I carefully created the window, lifted the membrane, and grafted the sinus. I placed two GM implants with a surgical guide. These implants are amazing. I got over 40 Ncm torque in less than 4 mm of residual bone in posterior maxilla. We also removed some other teeth and placed an implant on 10. He got a lot of work done in a day. This is the start of the surgical phase of his full mouth reconstruction. We will lift the right side and add some implants there in a few months. In the meantime, I will place some provisionals on the remaining teeth.

One year follow up after gum recession treatment using minimally invasive Pinhole surgical technique. The patient's chief complaint of temperature sensitivity was completely resolved after treatment.

The missing tooth for this patient was replaced with a conservative porcelain bridge using CEREC technology with IPS emax, in a single visit. She was not able to get an implant due to severely dilacerated roots of adjacent tooth. She has been missing this tooth for most of her life and was ecstatic to replace it permanently.

Quick, painless, and accurate implant placement surgery is possible using a computer-generated surgical guide. This video shows a minimally invasive guided implant placement. The patient was surprised that there was no pain after the surgery.

Three year follow up for dental implant bridge with tilted distal implant. The implant was tilted to avoid the maxillary sinus. Case selection is very important for the procedure. By tilting the implant, I was able to avoid addition maxillary sinus augmentation surgery for this patient and the implant is placed in more stable patient's native bone. The implants were placed using a computer generated guide using patients cone beam scans. The patient has been enjoying this bridge for the past 3 years without any issues.
