Finishing the school year with her smile - and her confidence - restored.
After experiencing trauma and eventually losing a front tooth, our 15-year-old patient came to us hoping for a solution that would feel natural, comfortable, and confident. Because she is still growing, placing a dental implant right now would not be the ideal long-term option.
Instead, we chose a Maryland bridge - a beautiful, minimally invasive way to restore her smile until she is old enough for implant treatment in the future.
Seeing her smile confidently again before heading back into school was incredibly rewarding for everyone involved.
A special thank you to Dr. Katherine Ni and Hermanson Lemke Lab for their collaboration and care in helping bring this young patient's confidence back.
