This patient had 20-year-old veneers and wanted to refresh her smile. After the patient and Dr. Radu reviewed digital photos taken of her mouth, they came to the joint conclusion that straightening the patient’s teeth was a good place to start and chose clear aligner orthodontic therapy to do the job. When the treatment was complete, Dr. Radu placed new veneers on the patient’s upper front teeth.

This 50-year-old man had orthodontic treatment in another office a couple of years ago but was not happy with the result. Dr. Radu created a new plan using clear aligner orthodontic therapy and, after about six months, the patient achieved the pleasing aesthetic result you see here.

This young man had a healthy set of teeth but was unhappy with how crooked they were. Dr. Radu extracted his wisdom teeth and used clear aligner orthodontic therapy for about eight months to achieve his beautiful new smile.

This 40-year-old patient had a healthy set of teeth, but her bite was off and, aesthetically, her smile was far from perfect. Her teeth were leaning, the midline was off, and her teeth were caving in at the middle of the arch. Using clear aligner orthodontic therapy, Dr. Radu got her bite fixed and aesthetically improved. This patient smiles with confidence now.

This patient’s straightening procedure was followed by bleaching and conservative composites on some teeth. The result is a huge improvement in this very busy executive’s bite and overall smile!

This woman had suffered her whole life from a very crooked set of teeth and a bad bite. Dr. Radu used clear aligner orthodontic therapy, followed by minimally invasive porcelain restorations, including veneers, crowns and onlays to achieve what the patient called a “perfect smile.”

This 30-year-old man suffered from chipped and heavily discolored upper front teeth and his bite was very far off. Dr. Radu analyzed his bite with the T-Scan and evened it out. Our skilled laboratory in Germany then created a set of beautiful porcelain crowns for his upper front teeth.

A previous dentist told this patient that his upper teeth could never be repaired because they were too frail. With some periodontal treatment, Dr. Radu was able to save the patient’s teeth. After that, Dr. Radu replaced the unsightly old composites and crowns with new, beautiful full porcelain zirconia crowns.

This middle-aged man had been using chewing tobacco for many years and his teeth were almost completely worn out. He wanted a complete makeover and also wanted at least one gold area showing. Dr. Radu used strong porcelain fused to gold crowns and bridges for longevity, function and to fulfill the patient’s desired aesthetic wish.

Many years of neglect led to what this patient considered a “disastrous situation.” This 50-year-old thought all her teeth would have to be extracted. However, through careful planning and root canal therapy, Dr. Radu was able to save enough teeth to support upper and lower partial dentures. These dentures look, feel and act like natural teeth and the patient was ecstatic with the result!
Veneers

This patient had been troubled all her life by the unsightly gaps between her teeth and, at age 35, she decided to have this flaw corrected. Dr. Radu’s thorough computer planning and the artistry of the ceramist made this case an aesthetic success using veneers. The patient had a lifelong dream fulfilled in just three weeks!

This patient of ours was away at college when he broke his teeth in an accident. He flew to Boca Raton to have Dr. Radu provide a temporary fix for his broken front teeth and then flew back three weeks later to have thin, conservative porcelain veneers permanently bonded in place.

This young professional had badly worn teeth, and she wanted to have this condition repaired. Dr. Radu diagnosed the cause of the wear to be a result of the patient grinding her teeth. He explained to her that treating the cause first is the correct approach, because if any restorations were placed prior to treating the grinding, they would eventually be destroyed. Dr. Radu worked for about four months to even out the patient’s bite through the use of a therapeutic nightguard before proceeding with the restoration of the worn teeth. A rather conservative approach was possible, due to thorough planning. With only four minimally invasive porcelain veneers, bleaching and reshaping of certain teeth, the result was stunning!

This patient protected her upper six front teeth with porcelain veneers, which were tinted to match her other teeth. The treatment improved her smile esthetically and functionally because it stopped the thinning and wearing of those teeth.

This 17-year-old soccer player lost a front tooth after a traumatic blow to her face. Dr. Radu placed a single dental implant and, once the implant had healed, he capped it with a full porcelain crown.

This patient had several dental implants placed by another dentist but she was very unhappy with the fit and look of the temporary teeth the dentist had provided. She came to Dr. Radu to ask if he could make better teeth for her. Dr. Radu likes a challenging case, and he meticulously analyzed the situation, contacted the other dentist, and received permission to take over the case. Dr. Radu used a combination of porcelain zirconia crowns, fixed bridges supported by natural teeth and dental implants. The result was a beautiful new smile and a strong and functional bite.

This 80-year-old man had untreatable abscesses and extractions were required. Rather than get a removable partial denture, he chose the option of having four dental implants placed because they are more comfortable and function like natural teeth. After three months, the implants had healed and Dr. Radu placed the permanent restorations. To achieve a better bite, the rest of his upper teeth were capped with porcelain zirconia crowns. The result is not only esthetically pleasing, but also functional, and he can now eat the foods he needs to remain healthy.

After wearing and disliking a removable partial denture for about 10 years, this 60-year-old woman decided to get dental implants placed. The implants allowed her to get rid of the partial denture covering the roof of the mouth, be much more comfortable and enjoy a strong bite. Now, she can chew better, doesn’t need to constantly worry about removing and cleaning the partial, and her implant-supported zirconia porcelain crowns function just like natural teeth.

Sometimes old restorations (the artificial teeth that attach to the implants) simply wear out and need to be renewed. Such was the case with this 65-year-old patient who wanted a more youthful look. Dr. Radu needed to replace her restorations, as they were over 15 years old. The original implants were kept, but he placed new hardware and new upper and lower teeth onto the implants.

After an accident, this 40-year-old woman lost her upper front teeth. Dr. Radu and his team placed implants in strategic sites and a temporary partial was used while the implants were healing. Dr. Radu placed a permanent porcelain zirconia bridge for the final restoration. In just four months, her smile and dental function were regained!

This wife of a retired dentist had several crown and bridge restorations done over the years. When she came to our office, she needed a new plan for the upper teeth because the restorations were falling apart. Dr. Radu and his team placed a few new dental implants to augment the implants she had placed 20 years ago and completed a full upper set of fixed porcelain bridges. She was very happy to avoid a removable denture and have a set of functional and beautiful fixed bridges.

This 60-year-old patient was missing a lot of her back teeth. Dr. Radu and his team placed nine implants to replace the missing teeth and created a comfortable new bite. The patient can now chew anything she wants. She also wanted her old front crowns replaced and he used full porcelain zirconia crowns for her upper and lower front teeth to complete a functional bite and esthetically pleasing smile.

When this 50-year-patient came to our office, she’d had some implants placed and restored in another office, but wasn’t pleased with her restoration. Dr. Radu designed and created a new cosmetic restoration: a fixed full porcelain zirconia layered bridge attached to her implants.

When none of her lower teeth could be saved, this 70-year-old chose to receive dental implants capped with a fixed restoration. On the day Dr. Radu extracted her teeth, he and his team placed six implants and immediately fitted a fixed restoration—this is possible when the implants can be placed in strategic positions and are all connected with a complete strong framework under the arch of teeth.

This 60-year-old patient had a full upper denture she’d worn for many years. When facing the loss of her lower teeth, the unpleasant thought of yet another unstable removable full denture influenced her decision to have dental implants placed. In one day, Dr. Radu and his team placed six upper and eight lower implants and restored both upper and lower with fixed restorations! Many times people opt for this scenario, going through more extensive work in one day, rather than having to come back for multiple appointments. In a single day, she went from a loose upper denture and a failing set of lower teeth to two fixed, comfortable, functional and beautiful restorations.

This retired professional decided he’d had enough of his old upper denture and lower failing teeth and decided to have a fixed implant-supported upper and lower restoration. The result is a healthy mouth and a restored smile, and the patient can finally chew his food properly.

Dr. Radu extracted this patient’s few remaining teeth and gave her the fixed set of teeth she wanted. Five implants were strategically placed and the temporary teeth were attached on the same day. Five months later, Dr. Radu completed her new permanent restoration and upper denture. Her chewing ability has improved considerably, and her smile is much more attractive now.
