Case Overview
The patient presented with complaints regarding poor smile aesthetics, severe discoloration of a front tooth, and compromised chewing function. The initial clinical presentation required a strict team-based approach to build a stable functional foundation before individual restorations could be placed.
Initial View
Lead Prosthodontist: Maksym Voronin
Orthodontist: Valerii Kuts
Total Duration: Approx. 2.5 years
Initial Condition:
1. Severe discoloration of the upper left central incisor due to previous root canal therapy.
2. Spacings (diastema and tremas) and misaligned dental arch proportions.
3. Multiple carious lesions, failing restorations, and cervical defects in the aesthetic zone.
4. Pathological wear on the incisal edges of the lower teeth.
5. Malocclusion and missing posterior teeth (specifically in the lower right area #45).
Treatment Steps:
Orthodontic Phase (2 years): Braces treatment by Valerii Kuts to realign the dental arches, eliminate improper spacing, correct the bite, and prepare space for the implant.
Orthodontic Stage
Surgical Phase: Placement of a premium Swiss Straumann implant in the missing tooth #45 region to re-establish posterior support.
Prosthetic Phase: Full-mouth rehabilitation with high-precision, metal-free restorations using Cercon (Zirconia). This successfully masked the severely dark front tooth and optimized the bite height.
Outcome: Achieved flawless structural symmetry, natural translucency, and life-like shade. Chewing function is fully restored, delivering a healthy, confident smile.

A crown helps to restore a severely decayed tooth, return it to its previous form and function and protect it from the formation of cavities later on. These crowns are used in the restoration and treatment of teeth canals and implantation.
Abnormal bite is a problem not only of an aesthetic smile and face, but it is also a functional problem resulting in serious consequences for the whole body.
Veneers are a sparing alternative to crowns. They are installed on the front of a depulped or living tooth, provided that a sufficient surface area is maintained. Only a small amount of tooth enamel is shaved for better contact with the plate. Usually veneers are 0.3 mm to 1.5 mm thick.
Installation of implants is an opportunity to restore a lost tooth without affecting adjacent teeth. They are used as roots for individual crowns.
