A 20 year old girl reported to our dental clinic with a complaint of missing teeth due to accidental injury 2 years back and the upper front teeth were badly broken which were removed elsewhere. She was wearing removable denture which was loose & uncomfortable and she felt very self-conscious.
On thorough clinical and radiological examination, thin crestal bone was seen in the missing teeth region. Maxillofacial Surgeon & Implantologist Dr. S.M. Balaji expertly performed the jaw and teeth rehabilitation. The over-retained deciduous teeth adjacent to the missing teeth region were extracted. The thin jaw bone was augmented with bone graft harvested from the mandibular symphysis region and dental implants were placed. The jaw bone strengthened with the bone graft integrated well with the implants and good retention and stability was achieved. Ceramic prosthesis was fixed to the implants with superior aesthetic results. The girl was very happy to enhance her smile and the fixed prosthesis boosted her self-confidence.
