Patient Background
Failed aligner treatments often leave patients with unresolved dental issues, such as spacing and misalignment. This case study showcases how a 25-year-old male patient, who travelled from the United States, sought correction of his failed aligner treatment with a premium smile makeover using dental veneers.
Chief Complaint
After undergoing orthodontic treatment with aligners, the patient reported ongoing spacing and irregular anterior tooth issues, which severely affected his smile aesthetics. His chief complaint was that despite completing the entire aligner treatment, his teeth did not align as expected, leaving him feeling dissatisfied with the overall result.
Clinical Findings & Diagnosis
At Dr. Jaydev Dental, we used a premium dental veneer approach to give him the smile he desired. The patient’s aesthetic expectations were clear, and with his limited time due to international travel, a prosthodontic smile makeover was recommended. Traditional orthodontics wasn’t viable due to time constraints, and the failed aligner treatment posed additional challenges. As a result, premium dental veneers were selected to correct spacing and alignment, delivering a natural, aesthetically pleasing result in a shorter time frame.
Treatment Protocol
Digital Smile Design (DSD):
We conducted a thorough facial and dental analysis to design the ideal smile. This involved analyzing the patient’s natural features to ensure harmony and proportionality in the final result.
Conservative Tooth Preparation:
Only minimal enamel preparation was performed to preserve the natural tooth structure and ensure the veneers fit perfectly without damaging the underlying teeth.
Premium Dental Veneers:
High-quality, custom veneers were fabricated. These were bonded using advanced adhesive protocols to ensure that they not only looked natural but also provided long-term durability and resistance to wear.
Outcome
The procedure resulted in complete closure of the anterior spaces and a significant improvement in the patient’s tooth alignment. The final result was a natural, confident smile, restoring both the patient’s appearance and his confidence. The patient expressed satisfaction with both the aesthetics of the outcome and the treatment’s efficiency. He was pleased with how quickly his smile was transformed, and the results met his high expectations.
