Dental Aesthetics and Functional Rehabilitation in a Case of Reinfection and Tooth Loss: A case report

In this clinical report, a 41-year-old Malay female patient presented with reinfection of her root treated central incisor teeth. There was a significant loss of coronal tooth structure in the maxillary anterior teeth and missing posterior teeth requiring a restorative solution. A combination of conventional prosthodontic techniques and a digital workflow was employed for optimal outcomes. To address the loss of coronal tooth structure, indirect all-ceramic restorations with post core were chosen. These restorations offer excellent aesthetics and durability, closely resembling natural teeth. The utilization of digital technology ensured precise measurements and fabrication, resulting in restorations that fit accurately and function optimally. For the bilateral missing teeth in the first molar region that has impacted the patient's ability to chew effectively, implant-supported crowns were provided to restore the masticatory performance. Dental implants provided a stable foundation for the crowns, improving chewing efficiency and overall oral function. The treatment approach successfully restored both aesthetics and functionality, significantly enhancing the patient's quality of life. Regular follow-up visits and maintenance protocols were implemented to ensure long-term success.
