Case 1
Be aware of in-office made ceramic crowns!
This 65 years-young male from the TIME 100 Most Influential People in the World list visited us complaining of chipping and fracturing front teeth, and pain in the back tooth on the left side that had recently received a CAD-CAM in-office ceramic crown.
Etiology: The poorly made crown was putting excessive load on the tooth and forcing the law to shift to the right and forward.
Treatment: Replaced the bulky crown in the back and unaesthetic crown in front with all ceramic crowns and three porcelain veneers next to crown in the front. The appearance of other natural teeth improved by simple professional in-office teeth whitening. The treatment helped jaw to reposition itself in its normal position.
