Testimony By Robert
Traveling from the UK to OD Clinic for my dental treatment was a significant decision, but one I’m glad I made. The professionalism and attention to detail throughout the process made me feel completely at ease. Seeing the quality of care firsthand, I felt confident bringing my wife and daughter here for their treatments as well. Now, we all have smiles we’re truly happy with.
The Process of Designing Robert’s Smile
Phase 1: Immediate Implants & Temporary Restorations
A comprehensive approach was taken, including:Extraction of non-restorable upper teeth
Alveoplasty to reshape the jawbone and correct the gummy smile
Placement of six Straumann BLX implants for long-term stability
A fixed PMMA temporary bridge for immediate aesthetics and function
Robert left the clinic with a confident smile on the same day.
Phase 2: Final Zirconia Restorations
After a 5-month healing period, final restorations were placed:A natural-looking monolithic zirconia implant bridge on the upper arch
Monolithic zirconia crowns on the lower teeth for a harmonious bite
Shade 2M2 chosen for a bright yet natural appearance
Robert’s case presented multiple challenges, including severely damaged upper teeth, a gummy smile, and difficulty eating. At OD Clinic, we combined advanced digital planning with precise surgical techniques to achieve a seamless transformation.
The Treatment and Results
Beyond the technical precision of Robert’s transformation lies an emotional journey of regained confidence. His new smile looks natural, proportional, and beautifully balanced, eliminating his gummy smile and restoring full function. Most importantly, he can now eat, speak, and smile without hesitation.
