Our whole team had worked together to create our lovely patient Joanna’s new smile!
Joanna was after an even, whiter and gap free smile. She was truly committed to achieve this going ahead with crowns, veneers, a bridge, an implant and whitening!
Hard work really does pay off, look at that after!
Congratulations Joanna on finishing your dream smile journey.
Here is a photo of what can happen if you do nothing about your grinding and/or clenching.
This patient severely clenched and ground down their teeth to the point it broke!
Something you should always be paying attention to is whether you clench or grind your teeth. Maybe your doing it while your reading this..
Their are several negative risks for your oral health if you don’t do anything about it. This can result in things such as tooth damage (as you can see above), tooth fractures, jaw pain (TMJ), sleep disruption, gum recession, changes in tooth alignment, ear pain and even emotional stress.
If you experience any of these let us help you protect your teeth and prevent anymore damage!
At first glance, this patients teeth aren’t too bad.
But there’s always room for improvement.
In this case what’s really happening is a “cross-bite” meaning the back teeth are crossed over causing a narrow smile and severe wear if left alone.
To remedy this, Dr. Chu used Invisalign to correct the cross-bite. The upper jaw expanded & the crooked teeth were fixed simultaneously to produce these lovely results.
Are your teeth wearing down? Maybe Invisalign can fix that for you.
