問題:
患者出現了幾個牙齒問題:
1. “局限性重度牙周炎” 或失去緊緊固定牙齒的牙齦和骨骼結構. 這意味著一些牙齒已經鬆動並受到感染,需要拔除 (切除).
2. 最初導致牙周炎的牙菌斑上和牙菌斑之間殘留的牙菌斑.
3. Staining and decay around old fillings of the front and back teeth.
治療:
The gaps created by the teeth extractions (as well as the tooth already missing) were replaced with an acrylic (plastic) 局部義齒. This was fabricated after the teeth were given thorough cleaning and the gum had healed. The denture stays in via metal clasps that grasp the existing, healthy back teeth. He is able to eat almost all foods with the denture.
Old fillings that had deep staining and decay were removed and new ones placed. If the staining wasn’t deep, the fillings were polished to remove the discoloration to a satisfactory level the patient was happy with.
花費時間:
The fillings were completed over two sessions and the extractions were coordinated with the denture fabrication which involved 4 quick appointments 1 week apart from each other.
Patient feed back:
The patient was extremely happy with the outcome and stated that he “now feels confidence going to job interviews” and said he feels “much happier with my appearance”.
