drnewittSpectatorWell this is one of my biggest posts. took lots of pics but damn if I can get them all without blur. This is a lady who we were prepared to do open flap with osseous after original GV but found that there was plenty of room for BW. I hope I am correct on that. I did probe, no picture of that as they were really blurred close ups, but I will get one next visit.
She was missing laterals since birth. We did dx wax ups with Osseous re-contour taken into account. She knew it would not be perfect due to the size of the space we were trying to fill and she did not want 6 teeth done. I was very happy with result of GV and lack of bleeding. She was VERY happy with the results at Temp stage.
Can’t believe the Full shots are blurred. I think I needed more light. still learning.
Glenn van AsSpectatorPhenomenal case and wonderful pics. I never thought the final would look so nice in the temps as I thought there would be too much space only doing 4 but you really did a beautiful job.
I noticed two great things.
1. THe tissue after the GV removal made the teeth look so much better, it shows how focussing on the PINK makes the WHITE look better.
2. THe final result in temps is escellent so make sure that you take the impression of the temps for her.
Paul , you should be darn proud of the results, the layou and your treatment……..
Clap clap clap

Vince C FavaSpectatorReal nice Paul.
When you sounded to bone, what were your numbers? Low crest patient I assume.
Thanks.
Vince
drnewittSpectatorThanks Glenn. appreciate the kind comments.
Vince – that is what surprised me. I had my 15 blade and sutures all ready to go. Finished up the GV and sounded to bone. 3mm from repositioned hieght of gingivae. I checked again, put the #15 back in its package and said. hmm.
She is happy with Temps and doesn’t mind staying in them for a time to see healing. I will see her again next week for follow up.
Dan MelkerSpectatorThe patient must have freaked out over the beautiful provisionals!
Great documentation.

drnewittSpectatorThanks Danny
I was thinking of you when I first sat down with this case. Made sure I was well prepared for the open flap osseous. That’s one area I would really like to improve my skill level.
Interestingly this patient came back for a follow up, Custom shade session with my lab tech, and told us that the only person who had noticed that there was a change was her roommate. And get this, her roommate said she thought her teeth were much cuter before tx! Glad the room mate it not a patient!
N8RVSpectatorKudos on the great case! When you have both Glenn AND Danny patting you on the back, you have ARRIVED! 🙂
Someday …

whitertthSpectatorPaul,
Nice stuff and great case….just curious what program did u use to do the case presentation, and pictures?
Nice stuff!!
drnewittSpectatorThanks guys
I should have follow ups very soon as she is in at the end of the week for a bisque try in. I will get some non-fuzzy photos.
Ron, I transfer the photos into iPhoto and from there they link directly to my image ready program where I set up the slides. I based these 4 up slides on Glenn’s posts as I really like his presentation. I optimize the images to drop the file size after I have placed the background and text.
The image sizes are 800×565 pixels and the total file size is 88kb after optimization. these are jpeg images at high resolution 60%. The font is Neuropol. Hope that helps.
ASISpectatorHi Paul,
Great post! Very good documentation and pics and handling of the case.
You might consider raising the gingival level to the first premolars though as these will mimic as canines. They may involve osseous relief if the sulcular depth is shallower than the anteriors for optimal BW purpose. You might get your chance for a flap after all….
The gingival display may not warrant this especially if the patient chooses not to undergo another procedure….
Good stuff, Paul.

The above thread is how to change a bicuspid into a cuspid and a cuspid into a lateral.
As Andrew suggested.
