Problem

She came to us looking for an enhancement of his smile, she wanted to show less gum and have a fuller smile. 

Approach

After a complete clinical exam, a full set of photos, and x-rays we made a digital mock-up to understand our reach and what we needed to do.

It was necessary to perform an esthetic recontouring surgery to raise the zenith of each tooth and also to diminish its thickness.

Visit 1

One day after consultation, in Cancun, we had our digital mock-up. That was the guide to perform the gum surgery. Two days later she went home. We needed to wait, at least 8 weeks to have a stable gum and be able to prep for veneers and make impressions.

Visit 2

12 weeks later she came to Cancun again to prep for 10 veneers and make final impressions, also to fit her with veneers prototypes to have her get used to the new smile. One day later she went back home.

Visit 3

She came to Costa Rica, two weeks later, to have her veneers seated. On the first day, we did an esthetic try. She requested some minor changes.

End

The next day we delivered all the veneers, then checked the bite.

On the final day, we tested the bite again and got final X-rays and pictures.

Now, she is very happy looking amazing, and ready to be proud of her new smile.
