The patient was experiencing a number of issues, including:
- An number of failed fillings
- Unhappy with a denture that was installed following an earlier extraction
- Uneven wear of the teeth due to bruxism (unconsciously grinding the teeth)
- A high number of amalgam (metal) fillings
- Yellowing of the teeth
Despite a regular oral hygiene plan, the patient's oral health was poor, this resulted in a lack of confidence due to insecurities about their smile. The patient expressed a desire to create a smile that would return their confidence, requesting straighter and whiter teeth.
My aim was to restore function by recommending a treatment plan with number of options, including:
- Replacing all amalgam (metal) fillings with white fillings
- Dental crowns to raise the bite (alleviating the uneven wear), and produce a whiter smile.
- Extraction of the teeth that could not be saved, replacing them with dental implants
- Installation of a dental implant to replace the denture. My recommendation also included the cheaper option of a dental bridge. The patient opted for dental implants.
- Teeth whitening program using our Enlighten Smiles® treatment
- Bruxism bite guard to prevent teeth grinding and uneven wear.
The treatment plan was broken down into stages to maximise the chances of a stable long-term result. The staged process had many benefits, including the financial advantage of spreading the cost over a number of months, allowing the bone to fully heal post-extraction.

Composite bonding is a nonporous material meaning that it has the potential to stain over time 🦷 Certain habits, foods, and drinks also have the potential to cause discolouration of composite bonding 🍝🍷
To preserve your teeth and reduce the likelihood of staining your composites you should try to avoid smoking, tea, coffee, red wine, carbonated drinks, curries, and sauces which are all pigmented foods and drinks that can stain your teeth. As an extra precaution, use a straw when drinking liquids to avoid contact directly with your teeth.
Regular check-ups and routine cleaning with your dentist is also great way of dealing with stains and can make your bonding look like new again 🤩

Many people think that brushing their teeth as hard and fast as they can, gives them a healthy, clean and white smile 🦷🪥
BUT it has the opposite effect. Brushing your teeth in this way wears away the white, glossy enamel making your teeth look yellow and darker. Dr Ronette explains 🙌🏻
