Smile makeover for dental fear case example

This middle-aged Wall Street Chief Financial Officer was very afraid of dentists and dentistry.  He presented to our practice seeking fast and extremely gentle cosmetic reconstruction. Our treatment plan for the upper jaw involved removing four hopeless teeth. Then we performed root canal therapy, cast gold post and cores and gum surgery. Next we fabricated a complete upper jaw of lab-processed temporary crowns (caps). This was accomplished in nine hours between Monday and Friday of one business week.

The patient returned about three months later for insertion of his upper porcelain bridge. Above all his hands had stopped shaking in the dental chair because he was no longer afraid.
