Worn Discolored Fillings Need A Makeover

This young woman presented with a previously fractured and repaired front tooth.  The repair was discolored and worn and in need of replacement.  The options were given to bond again or make over the front four teeth with porcelain.  The decision was to go for the longer lasting better looking and stronger porcelain.  The teeth were prepared in one visit and provisional crowns placed that would mimic the permanent crowns that would follow.  The patient approved the temproary crowns and the order was made to make the final porcelain crowns.  When they were tried in, they fit perfectly and the dental laboratory did a fantastic job.  The crowns were bonded on and the patient loved her new smile.
