A worn, stained smile, rebuilt one careful stage at a time
Before:
Years of chewing paan had left heavy brown stains. The teeth were worn and chipped, an upper front tooth had a large cavity, and the back teeth had erosion cavities. At rest, no teeth showed at all.
After:
Natural-looking upper and lower teeth in a lighter shade. He chews better, his gums are healthy, and he smiles with new-found confidence.
Treatment:
Deep cleaning, a trial mock-up, whitening, fillings for the back teeth, and 20 ceramic veneers, upper and lower.

Stage 1. Understanding the whole picture
A full examination found heavy staining from paan chewing, a large cavity in an upper front tooth, general wear with grooves worn in at the gum line, and erosion cavities on the chewing surfaces of the back teeth.
Deep cleaning came first. A temporary mock-up of the 20 front teeth then let him see and feel the new shape, including a small, carefully judged increase in bite height, before anything permanent was done. Once he was happy, the worn back teeth were filled at the same visit.
His own teeth were whitened first, in two rounds at a single visit, so the final veneers could match a lighter, natural shade. The shade was then chosen, and temporary veneers worn while the final ones were made.
Stage 5. Lower veneers, and gums that stay healthy
Three more cleaning sessions, and a patient now motivated to look after his teeth, brought his gums to excellent health. The lower veneers followed: 20 veneers in all, upper and lower.
Most of the upper teeth were broken down close to the gum, with decayed roots and sore, inflamed gums.
After:
A complete upper row of evenly spaced teeth, seen here from below.
Every mouth is different, and individual results vary. Your treatment plan starts with a consultation, where Dr. Rifat explains your options, including the cost and time each one takes.
