01

The patient’s concern

This patient, a banking professional and father of two, had never had an adult upper left eye tooth. A baby tooth had stayed in place instead, leaving a gap and an uneven smile.

02

What we found

The space for the missing tooth needed to be the right size before an implant could be placed. Moving the neighbouring teeth first would give a better result than placing an implant into the gap as it was.

03

The treatment plan

1

Invisalign

About 12 months of Invisalign moved the teeth to create the right space.

2

Whitening

His natural teeth were whitened so the new crown could be matched to the brighter shade.

3

Implant and crown

An implant was placed and restored with a crown matched to his whitened teeth.

04

The outcome

He now has a full set of teeth, with the gap closed by an implant crown that blends with his natural teeth.
