Lately, I’ve been getting a few cases of fiber reinforced composite bridges (FRC bridge). This time I’m going to share with you the case that I did on my regular dear patient, Puan Khaty. Puan Khaty had a missing upper right premolar. She had taken…
Fiber reinforced composite bridge. It is one of the ways to replace a missing tooth and it is a semi permanent solution. It is fixed (not removable) so it is much more comfortable compared to a denture. It uses a fiber glass strands or bundles…
On one fine day, a
lovely middle-aged lady walked into the clinic for her appointment. She was
very soft-spoken and polite; she made everybody felt good that day.
But she had a problem.
She wasn’t comfortable with how she talked. And that was why she came to the
clinic.
After talking with
her, I got to know that she had lost one of her front tooth and was wearing a
denture. Although the denture was okay for her, she wanted something fixed to
replace her tooth. This was because she found it hard to recite the Quran and
to talk to people with a denture in her mouth.
This was her smile
when she came:
I sat down with her to
discuss the multiple options that she had. After much consideration, we opted
for a fibre-reinforced composite (FRC) bridge to replace the missing front
tooth. It was a good economical solution and we didn’t have to trim the
adjacent teeth too.
The tooth shade could
be matched better compared to a denture, the shine of the tooth was also much
better.
After placing the FRC
bridge, we let her see her smile again in the mirror. She was very pleased with
how it looked very natural when she smiled. And most importantly, she loved
that there was no more denture in her mouth, and she could talk better now!
There are always
multiple options to solve any problems that you may have with your teeth and
smile. So don’t be shy to make your appointment by calling us today, your new
smile is just one dental visit away.
