Final delivery of prosthesis today!

Case was referred for non- restorable maxillary dentition. Patient had multiple missing teeth and loss of vertical dimension of occlusion. Treatment planned for a maxillary AOX immediate loading using the PATZI protocol. Intraoral and facial scanning was central to all clinical steps to acquire surface data for maxilla and mandible and redefine the occlusal relationship. VDO was increased 2mm and new VDO scanned using the facial scan. Integration of 3D face-scan data with direct intraoral scans is used to facilitate virtual restorative design in increased 2mm VDO. Implant position planned pre-surgically which shortens treatment time significantly for this case.Pterygoid implants were placed with 50+Ncm, anterior and tilted implants were 40+Ncm. Digital technologies empowered a model-free concept in fabrication of full contour restorations with accuracy. Delivered final monolithic zirconia prosthesis without the need for try in! #bestdentist #smile #lifechanging #oralsurgery #implantdentistry #surgeon #surgery #allonx #allon6 #fullarch

ORCAA Mission

Had an amazing week in Guatemala learning the placement of extramaxillary implants with ORCAA. Thank you to the amazing faculty, Drs Sewon Oh, Juan Gonzales, Gregorio Redaelli, Emanuele Coppola and Zack Brown, the prosthetic team as well as the University of Francisco Marroquin. The ORCAA mission focuses on reconstruction and rehabilitation of the severely atrophic maxilla for the folks here in Guatemala. Edentulism is unfortunately endemic to this part of central America, so there was a lot of challenging pathology. This complexity required the use of advanced techniques such as zygomatic, trans nasal and pterygoid implants. I can’t recommend this experience strongly enough for clinicians who want to further their implant expertise while serving the Guatemalan people.

Happy Birthday!!!

Happy birthday to our clinical partner, Kim or should we say, Coach Kim. Kim led practice and games over the weekend for her daughter’s basketball team. The team also took her out to dinner to celebrate her birthday. We helped Kim celebrate with a delicious carrot cake. We hope you enjoyed your special day, Kim; you deserve it!

Cosmetic Gum Grafting

Cosmetic Gum Grafting Before and After Healthy gums cover the root surfaces of the teeth. When you have gum recession, the gum retracts back, exposing the vulnerable root surfaces. Dr. Towe performs periodontal plastic procedures designed to rebuild lost gum. The grafts provide “new” gum tissue, covering unsightly recession, protecting against root cavities and damage as well as prevent future worsening of recession.

Transformation Wednesday

Transformation Wednesday! It’s amazing how a smile can be changed in just one day! It has been our pleasure going through this journey together. We use a complete digital workflow, where we first take a digital scan of the patient’s face and use that to design and create their digital new smile. Technology allows us to plan the position of the implants and the final restoration with significantly greater accuracy. To change a smile, to change a life is our privilege and honor. Words cannot explain this transformation. Thank you for trusting us with your care!

Laser Surgery

Laser-assisted surgical therapy with the LANAP® protocol is a less invasive alternative to traditional periodontal surgery. Compared to traditional gum surgery, our patients typically report less discomfort during and after the procedure. Bone loss is a destructive process that is bacterial driven and can be exacerbated by clenching and grinding. Using our laser for non-invasive surgical treatment, there has been a significant increase in bone level and attachment around this molar. If you struggle with periodontal disease come see how we can help you get a healthier smile!
