Many people avoid visiting the dentist due to deeply rooted personal anxieties, which can eventually lead to complex oral health challenges. Simone came to our Brooklyn dental office experiencing inflamed, bleeding gums, severe pain from broken teeth, and major difficulties chewing her food. Additionally, her confidence was impacted by an old childhood flipper replacing her front tooth that no longer matched her smile and was breaking down. Our Brooklyn dental office welcomed Simone with complete empathy and listened closely to her personal health goals to design a comfortable, stress-free treatment plan.
A Phased Approach Focused on a Strong Foundation
Rebuilding a smile requires a careful, step-by-step strategy to ensure the final results are both beautiful and long lasting. Our Brooklyn dentist Dr. Akapo emphasized building a healthy foundation first by focusing on gum health before starting any restorative dentistry.
Our team used advanced digital tools to create an accurate roadmap for Simone’s phased treatment plan. This process included:
- Performing an iTero scan and using 3Shape digital software to map out her oral anatomy cleanly.
- Providing scaling and root planing therapies to heal her inflamed, bleeding gums.
- Stabilizing her smile by performing necessary root canals and gently removing one non-restorable tooth.
- Collaborating with a professional dental laboratory using 3D-printed models to guide the exact fabrication and placement of her new dental work.
Restoring Comfort, Function, and Confidence
A successful dental transformation should always address how your teeth feel and function just as much as how they look. For Simone, a custom flipper served a vital dual purpose by stabilizing her teeth and giving her a durable surface to chew again. Our Brooklyn cosmetic dentist blended tooth-colored fillings and protective dental crowns to repair her broken teeth and eliminate her physical pain. This customized smile makeover completely renewed her front tooth aesthetics, replacing the outdated appliance with a natural-looking solution that perfectly matched her other teeth.
In Simone’s Own Words
Hearing directly from our patients about their experiences is the most rewarding part of what we do. Simone shared her thoughts on the supportive, personalized care she received from our Brooklyn restorative dentist throughout her smile transformation.
“I came to Brooklyn Oak Dental Care because I had very bad oral hygiene due to my own personal fears of the dentist. But when I was seen by our caring dentist, she made me feel extremely comfortable. She gave me very good information on how to better take care of my teeth, and she also gave me a very detailed plan of what was wrong, what we would do, and what needed fixing. I’m very happy I came here because she gave me my smile back, and I couldn’t ask for anything more.”
