A patient aged 35 years consulted us for extensive dental care. His main concerns included the unsightly appearance of his teeth and difficulties with speaking, biting and swallowing food.
Dental examination and X-ray diagnosis
Following a detailed dental examination and X-ray diagnosis, a number of significant problems were identified:
- Bony malocclusion:
- Underdevelopment of the jaw and forebite.
- Dental problems:
-
- Advanced caries in many teeth in the mouth.
- Carious tooth roots, many teeth crumbled and fractured.
The proposed treatment process
