Casey’s Smile Rebuilt — Short Roots to Strong, Lasting Confidence

Background

Casey, a dedicated teacher, came to us after years of tooth grinding, gum disease, and increasing dental complications. Anatomically, her teeth had very short crowns and roots, making them unstable and prone to failure. Her smile had started to affect not just her appearance, but her overall well-being and confidence.

Challenge

Between periodontal disease, tooth wear from grinding, and naturally short roots, Casey’s teeth no longer provided the function or aesthetics she needed. Traditional restorations wouldn’t have given her lasting stability — and her case required a solution that would finally give her strong, permanent teeth.

Solution – All-on-4 with Immediate Smile Transformation

We chose the All-on-4 dental implant technique, strategically placing implants to maximize support and stability. Because of her short root structure and worn teeth, this approach allowed us to remove the failing teeth and immediately restore her smile.

Casey walked out the same day with a beautiful temporary bridge, custom-designed to match her facial aesthetics and give her instant confidence. Her finals are even better — refined in shape, color, and texture to feel and look just like natural teeth.

Surgical Experience

To make the process stress-free, we performed the entire procedure while Casey was comfortably sedated. In one appointment, we removed the remaining teeth, placed the implants, and gave her a full smile to leave with that day. Her healing was smooth, and her final bridge was placed after full integration — offering long-term strength and beauty.

Outcome

Casey’s smile today is radiant, strong, and truly transformational. The All-on-4 solution gave her not only a permanent fix for the damage done by grinding and periodontal disease, but also a natural-looking smile that reflects her personality and vitality as a teacher and role model.

Key Takeaways

  • Short teeth and roots aren’t a barrier to a beautiful, lasting smile. With the right implant placement, we gave Casey strength and stability she never had before.
  • From temporary to final — both smiles were stunning. And her final bridge refined every detail for a natural, confident look.
  • One day, one big change. Casey walked out the same day with a new smile — no waiting, no partials.
