Dental treatments before and after




New restoration of maxillary teeth (upper teeth) with all-ceramic veneers and partial crowns for color and shape optimization and to close the black triangles
The patient was bothered by the defects, the color and the length of the upper teeth when laughing
After a functional-aesthetic wax-up was fabricated, an intraoral mock-up was performed to visualize the result in terms of aesthetics and function. Finally, the final realization was carried out through minimally invasive partial crowns or 360° veneers. Esthetics, function and the desired tooth color and length were restored, and the black triangles were closed




Complete reconstruction with all-ceramic veneers and partial crowns to restore function and esthetics
The patient was dissatisfied with the color and shape of his teeth and presented severely advanced abrasion and grinding facets on all teeth
After the fabrication of a functional esthetic wax-up for bite elevation in the maxilla and mandible, an intraoral mock-up was performed to enable the patient to visualize the result in terms of esthetics and function. The aim was to achieve minimal bite elevation in the mandible, to create sufficient space for the reconstruction of the severely abraded teeth and the restoration of the anterior canine alignment. This was followed by in-office bleaching of the mandibular anterior teeth. Finally, the definitive implementation occurred as part of a complex overall restoration using minimally invasive partial crowns and 360* veneers and the abraded mandibular incisors with composite reconstruction. Esthetics and function and the desired tooth color were thus restored




New restoration of the upper jaw with all-ceramic veneers and partial crowns
The patient was particularly disturbed by the low visibility of the maxillary (upper) teeth when laughing and the color and position of the existing, old restoration
After the fabrication of a functional-aesthetic wax-up, an intraoral mock-up was performed to enable the patient to visualize the result in terms of esthetics and function. To achieve a lighter shade result for the definitive restoration in the upper jaw, the lower teeth were lightened in our practice with the aid of in-office bleaching. Finally, the definitive restoration was fabricated by replacing the existing restorations. Esthetics, function and the desired tooth color, as well as the length and course of the smile line, were thus restored




Veneers of the upper incisors for aesthetic gap closure and reconstruction of the abraded incisors
The patient was disturbed by the gap position of the maxillary anterior (upper front) teeth
The gaps were closed by treating the upper 6 anterior teeth with minimally invasive all-ceramic veneers, the function was restored by building up the canine guidance, and the patient was given her desired smile




Correction of the tooth position and harmonization of the smile
The patient was disturbed by the disharmonious course of the upper dental arch and the existing severe crowding of both jaws
With the help of removable, transparent Invisalign aligners, the dental arches in the upper and lower jaw were shaped and harmonized within 6 months. Both tooth position and smile width were idealized, giving the patient a radiant smile




Reconstruction of severely abraded anterior teeth with composite to restore function and to idealized length-width ratios
The patient was disturbed by her short, severely shaved anterior teeth with insufficient fillings
With the help of removable, transparent Invisalign aligners, the dental arches in the upper jaw and lower jaw were shaped and harmonized within 6 months. This pre-negotiation allowed for the creation of sufficient space for the final reconstruction of the missing tooth structure of the maxillary and mandibular anterior teeth. This was followed by in-office bleaching in our practice to achieve the desired lighter tooth color. After a functional-aesthetic WaxUp was fabricated, purely additive reconstruction was performed by minimally invasive composite abutments of each of the 6 maxillary and mandibular anterior teeth. This restoration of the anterior canines is synonymous with maximum protection of the teeth from further abrasion-related damage. The result shows an esthetically harmonious smile with optimal tooth size ratios matching the course of the lips




Correction of overlapping anterior teeth and the build-up of abraded incisors
The patient was particularly disturbed by her diverging and overlapping anterior teeth. In addition, she did not like the missing width in the right side of her smile, her prominent upper right canine, and the disharmonic array of the incisal edges of her central incisors
With the help of removable, transparent Invisalign aligners, the dental arches in her upper and lower jaw were shaped up and harmonized in only 6 months. Finally, a minimally invasive composite reconstruction of the maxillary anterior was performed to restore her anterior canine alignment




Bite elevation with partial crowns and veneers in combination with bleaching to change shape and color
After completing an alio loco orthodontic treatment, the patient was somewhat dissatisfied with the low visibility of his maxillary anterior teeth, tooth length, and tooth color
After the fabrication of a functional-aesthetic wax-up for bite elevation in the maxilla (upper jaw), an intraoral mock-up was performed to visualize the patient’s result in terms of esthetics and function. The aim was to raise the bite in the maxilla in order to create sufficient space for the reconstruction of the severely abraded teeth and the restoration of the anterior canine guidance.
This was followed by in-office bleaching and functional splint therapy for 3 months to check the new bite position.
Finally, the definitive implementation was completed as part of a complex overall restoration of the upper jaw with bite elevation using minimally invasive partial crowns and 360* veneers. The abraded mandibular incisors were also reconstructed with composite. The desired tooth color was thus restored with esthetic and functional success




Correction and harmonization of the smile in combination with replacement of insufficient plastic fillings for the optimization of tooth lengths and widths
The patient was particularly disturbed by the disharmonic course of their upper dental arch and the height difference between the incisal edges of their central incisors
With the help of removable, transparent Invisalign aligners, the dental arches in the upper and lower jaw were shaped and harmonized in just 6 months. Finally, a minimally invasive composite buildup of the maxillary anterior was performed to restore the anterior canine alignment




Veneers for aesthetic reconstruction of tetracycline-related enamel formation disorders
The patient was disturbed by their severe tetracycline-related enamel formation disorder that had been present since tooth eruption and had caused the surfaces of their teeth to be discolored. Such discoloration is built into the enamel and cannot be removed from the outside
By restoring the upper 4 incisors with minimally invasive all-ceramic veneers, a beautiful radiant smile was restored for the patient




Veneers of the maxillary incisors after accidental anterior tooth trauma
After an anterior trauma, the patient presented with severely fractured anterior teeth
After initial temporary composite restoration, all-ceramic partial crowns were used to reconstruct the fractured incisors and achieve exactly the same appearance as before the accident




Gum correction by soft tissue augmentation and replacement of leaking bridge
The patient presented with an insufficient bridge in the left maxilla. He was particularly disturbed by the sunken course of the mucous membrane, since this area was particularly visible when he laughed
Although implant placement in this area was out of the question for the patient, the existing defect could be filled with the help of a soft tissue graft. The idealized design of the new bridge restoration allowed the defect to be completely closed




New restoration of the upper jaw with all-ceramic veneers, partial crowns and crowns
The patient was troubled by the gap position of the upper anterior teeth, as well as the spalling of the upper central incisor and the canines on both sides
After detailed consultation and planning, the esthetic and functional rehabilitation of the upper jaw was discussed with the patient. The upper 6 anterior teeth were restored with an all-ceramic crown on implant, partial crowns and veneers




Bleaching and renewal of the existing veneers in combination with composite structures
The patient was no longer happy with the color and shape of her existing anterior veneers. The overall length was too short, the corresponding length ratios of the first and second incisors did not match each other, and the canines were heavily worn, which on the one hand severely limited the esthetics and on the other hand negatively influenced the function (anterior canine guidance)
In order to restore the esthetics of her smile, an in-office bleaching was performed in our practice in advance to achieve the patient’s desired color. Subsequently, the 4 anterior teeth were restored with new, wafer-thin ceramic veneers. In order to fully restore the canine guidance and esthetics, the canine tips were minimally built up invasively with composite abutments. Length ratios were optimized and a beautiful radiant smile was restored




Bleaching and veneers in combination
The patient wished to have a brighter smile and to have her existing, grayish veneers resurfaced
After home bleaching with bleaching trays custom-made in our practice, the two central incisors were restored with new veneers. These were bonded to the tooth surface using adhesive technology. This made it possible to create an invisible restoration for an aesthetically perfect, natural smile




Veneers of the upper incisors for the treatment of enamel defects
There were severe yellow-brownish enamel defects on the two upper central anterior teeth as well as noticeable fillings on the tooth necks of the lateral anterior teeth. The patient wanted a long-term durable and color-perfect restoration in ceramic
The four upper incisors were restored with thin, highly esthetic ceramic veneers. This involved minimally invasive preparation (purely in the enamel). The veneers are bonded to the tooth surface (adhesive technique); no visible margins or transitions are left




Teeth whitening by in-office bleaching
The patient wanted a brighter smile with a brighter tooth color
The patient decided to have an in-office bleaching in our practice. In just 1.5 hours, we were able to brighten the patient’s tooth to the desired tooth color




Teeth whitening by in-office bleaching

The patient decided to have an in-office bleaching in our practice. In just 1.5 hours, we were able to brighten the patient’s tooth to the desired tooth color




New restoration of the upper jaw with all-ceramic veneers and crowns
The patient was disturbed by the very dominant anterior restorations of the upper four incisors, one of which had loosened a crown and resulted in a gap between the teeth. In addition, they were metal-ceramic crowns that appeared very opaque and artificial
After detailed consultation and planning, the esthetic and functional rehabilitation of the maxilla was discussed with the patient. For this purpose, it was necessary to restore posterior teeth in addition to the 4 incisors in order to create a stable anterior canine. In addition, this allowed the upper dental arch to be shaped in order to widen the smile. The teeth were restored with all-ceramic crowns, partial crowns and veneers




Optimization of tooth position and tooth lengths using veneers
The patient was disturbed by the interlocked tooth position of the lower front teeth, as well as the different and inconsistent colors and lengths of the front teeth
By fabricating wafer-thin ceramic veneers, the tooth position of the mandibular anterior teeth could be idealized and the lengths and color differences of the maxillary teeth could be compensated. The result was a perfect smile




Smile correction for unequal tooth length
The patient presented with unequal length anterior teeth with severe abrasion (loss of tooth substance) on the anterior teeth in the maxilla and mandible
With the help of composite, the tooth lengths of the upper and lower anterior teeth were adjusted directly in the patient’s mouth within only one treatment session according to esthetic and functional aspects




Correction of a dental malocclusion and widening of the smile
The patient was mainly disturbed by the diverging and interlocked anterior teeth. In addition, the missing buccal corridor on her right side
With the help of removable, transparent Invisalign aligners, the dental arches in the upper and lower jaw could be shaped and harmonized in only 4 months




Replacement of insufficient plastic fillings
The patient was troubled by the severely discolored and carious anterior fillings of the central incisors
The fillings were replaced and reconstructed with highly esthetic composite materials




Closing of tooth gaps with composite
After completing orthodontic treatment, the patient disturbed her tooth gap between the central and lateral incisor on the upper right side
The possible options were discussed in detail with the patient:
- Close the gap by widening the lateral incisor with composite.
- Closing the gap with a single ceramic veneer (advantage of longer durability and color stability in contrast to composite)
Since the patient did not want minimal preparation of the tooth surface, she decided to close the gap with composite




New restoration of the maxilla with all-ceramic crowns on teeth and implants
The patient was worried over his more than 30-year-old restorations in the maxilla whereon caries had formed at the crown margin. He wanted a more harmonious smile and a correction of his tooth color
After extensive consultation and planning, we opted for a prosthetic rehabilitation in the form of 14 new all-ceramic crowns in the upper jaw. The design was based on functional and esthetic aspects. This made it possible to create a harmonious smile with a smile line that followed the course of the lips, and an adjustment of the tooth color according to the patient’s wishes




Correction and harmonization of the smile in case of extremely long teeth and super visible gums
The patient was particularly disturbed by the disharmonic course of the upper dental arch with rotations, the prominent upper left canine, and the excessively long upper central incisors which disappeared under the lower lip. In addition, too much gum was visible during a smile
With the help of removable, transparent Invisalign aligners, the dental arches in the upper and lower jaw were shaped and harmonized, and the tooth lengths and smile line were idealized just within 4 months




New restoration of the upper and lower jaw in case of insufficient dentures
The patient wished to beautify her smile and brighten the color of her teeth. She was worried over the existing discolorations and ground teeth in the upper jaw, which had led to a negative smile line, as well as by the different length of the teeth in the lower jaw
The upper and lower jaws were restored with new dentures. The smile line was restored to a harmonious shape from a functional perspective. In addition, the smile was widened to support the lip volume and the tooth color was adjusted, resulting in a fresher and younger smile




Teeth whitening by in-office bleaching
The patient wanted a brighter smile with a brighter tooth color
The patient decided to have an in-office bleaching in our practice. In only one appointment, we were able to brighten the patient’s tooth to the desired tooth color




Tooth whitening and replacement of discolored fillings
The patient was bothered by his dark tooth color and severely discolored fillings
After an in-office whitening in our practice, the insufficient fillings were exchanged and color-matched to the new light tooth color




Tooth whitening and replacement of discolored fillings
The patient was bothered by his dark tooth color and severely discolored fillings
After an in-office whitening in our practice, the insufficient fillings were exchanged and color-matched to the new light tooth color


Correction of the tooth position and harmonization of the smile
The patient was disturbed by the disharmonious course of the upper dental arch and the existing severe crowding of both jaws
With the help of removable, transparent Invisalign aligners, the dental arches in the upper and lower jaw were shaped and harmonized within 6 months. Both tooth position and smile width were idealized, giving the patient a radiant smile




Reconstruction of severely abraded anterior teeth with composite to restore function and to idealized length-width ratios
The patient was disturbed by her short, severely shaved anterior teeth with insufficient fillings
With the help of removable, transparent Invisalign aligners, the dental arches in the upper jaw and lower jaw were shaped and harmonized within 6 months. This pre-negotiation allowed for the creation of sufficient space for the final reconstruction of the missing tooth structure of the maxillary and mandibular anterior teeth. This was followed by in-office bleaching in our practice to achieve the desired lighter tooth color. After a functional-aesthetic WaxUp was fabricated, purely additive reconstruction was performed by minimally invasive composite abutments of each of the 6 maxillary and mandibular anterior teeth. This restoration of the anterior canines is synonymous with maximum protection of the teeth from further abrasion-related damage. The result shows an esthetically harmonious smile with optimal tooth size ratios matching the course of the lips
