Quality of life and self-esteem renewed.
Description of the clinical case
Missing teeth affect quality of life and self-esteem, and wearing removable dental prostheses proves to be uncomfortable and sometimes painful.
João Filipe came to the clinic looking for a new solution, because he used to use removable prosthesis and knew he didn’t want that anymore.
Dr. Dárcio performed the rehabilitation with implant treatment and immediate loading, which is a solution that allows, in 1 day, to restore the masticatory, phonetic, and aesthetic function, returning the smile and self-confidence.
After 4 months, following the period of gum healing and osseointegration, the definitive prosthesis is screwed to the dental implants.
More and more patients are looking for a long-lasting, fixed solution for their smile, not only for aesthetics but also for functionality.
