The Patient
This patient was missing tooth #10, a front-tooth space that can make smiling and speaking feel more guarded. They wanted the missing tooth replaced in a way that looked natural next to the surrounding teeth and felt stable in daily life.
The Plan
Dr. Patel planned an implant-supported restoration for tooth #10, shaping the final crown to match the patient’s existing smile instead of drawing attention to the dental work.
The Result
The finished restoration closed the space with a secure, natural-looking tooth replacement. The patient’s smile looks more complete while still feeling like their own.
