Case One: Aesthetic Restoration of Anterior Teeth for a Young Lady
A 25-year-old young lady had her appearance affected due to the fracture of her upper anterior teeth caused by trauma. When designing the dentures, the doctor took full account of her facial features and personal temperament. She had a relatively round face and full lips, so a slightly rounded crown shape was chosen for the teeth to coordinate with the facial contour. Meanwhile, according to her fair complexion and personal preference, the color of the dentures was adjusted to a bright white close to that of natural teeth, ultimately presenting a natural and sweet smile, which greatly enhanced the overall aesthetic sense of her face and her self-confidence.
Case Two: Complete Denture Restoration for a Middle-aged Man
A 45-year-old middle-aged man lost all his teeth due to periodontal disease. When carrying out the smile design for the complete dentures, the doctor focused on his occupational and personality characteristics. Given that he was engaged in business work and needed to show a stable and professional image, the doctor designed square-round crowns for him, with the teeth arranged neatly. The color chosen was a natural light yellow that matched his complexion, making the smile look both natural and solemn, allowing him to be more confident in work and social situations.
Case Three: Denture Restoration for an Elderly Patient
An elderly patient aged 68 had been missing teeth for many years, and the facial muscles had collapsed to a certain extent. When designing the dentures, the doctor increased the vertical height of the dentures to appropriately restore the facial fullness. According to the characteristics of tooth wear in the elderly, the shape of the dentures was designed to be more gentle, and the color was chosen to be a slightly darker tone that blended with the adjacent teeth and the oral environment, making the smile after restoration look natural and harmonious, in line with his age characteristics, while also improving the patient's chewing function and facial appearance.
