Kathleen came to our Moore County dental practice with a pressing dental concern and an equally urgent timeline. With upcoming family events on the horizon, she was looking for a way to restore her smile and regain her confidence. Kathleen had been living with broken teeth and failed crowns and bridges. Most significantly, she had lost all of her front teeth, making both eating and smiling a challenge.
The Challenge
Kathleen’s dental issues were compromising her quality of life. She was struggling with the function and appearance of her teeth, and traditional dentures were not an acceptable solution for her lifestyle. Her bridgework had failed, and she was seeking a treatment that would provide stability, aesthetics, and allow her to eat comfortably again.
Comprehensive Full-Mouth Reconstruction
Dr. Ritt Kuhn and the team at Kuhn Dental Associates designed a personalized treatment plan for Kathleen. Utilizing advanced dental technology, including 3D planning and immediate load implants, the team was able to complete her full-mouth reconstruction efficiently and effectively.
In a single day, Dr. Kuhn removed the failing teeth, placed dental implants, and secured a new set of upper teeth using the All-on-4 technique. This immediate transformation allowed Kathleen to leave the office the same day with a fully functional and natural-looking smile.
Restoring the Lower Arch
After stabilizing the upper arch, attention was turned to Kathleen’s lower teeth. Crowns were placed to replace missing tooth structure, restore bite function, and enhance overall facial form. This comprehensive approach helped ensure long-term stability and improved oral health.
Life After Treatment
Thanks to her implant-supported restorations, Kathleen can now eat the foods she enjoys without discomfort. She’s also able to smile confidently, whether she’s visiting with neighbors or spending time with family. The combination of restored form and function has significantly improved her daily life and long-term wellness.
A Thoughtful Approach to Modern Dentistry
Kathleen’s case is a clear example of how immediate load implants and 3D treatment planning can deliver fast, effective results without sacrificing quality. Dr. Kuhn’s ability to provide teeth in one day was instrumental in meeting Kathleen’s needs and timeline.
