Does the extreme dental makeover exist? We'll let you decide by clicking and reading on the following real life examples.

The one-stop-shop in dentistry does not exist. If you truly want the best of care, and the best possible functional and aesthetic smile, then usually some smart, well-informed, experienced, and extremely well qualified people have to come together to produce that outcome for you.

You are kidding yourself if you think walking into a general dental office (whether it is in Thailand or Australia) will provide you an extreme dental makeover that is stable, comfortable and healthy for the long term.

If you have a complex dental problem, don't expect that a single general dentist (despite all the assurances) can provide all the different aspects of specialist care you likely need.

The problem with an overall makeover is that often different areas of highly specialised management needs to be coordinated and cross managed... And usually between specialists who respect each other's work, and know how to work together.

The surgeon suggested that the patient consider orthodontics follow wisdom teeth surgery, but the patient seemed worried over the prospect of previous advice which was simply to remove the crowded upper teeth to create "room". The surgeon suggested that he reconsider orthodontics (but without the need for premolar extractions), and to consider instead jaw advancement surgery... Read more

Case 3 This 62 year old executive presented after a 2 hour dental appointment, where the upper left molar fractured during a dental extraction attempt. The tooth was subsequently removed by the surgeon, and over the next 12 months, combined bone graft, gum graft, and implant insertion occurred, with final total dental corwn manufacture provided by an implant restorative dentist to correct the upper dentition and smile...

Case 4 . This 52 year old male had severe generalised periodontal disease, with specialist periodontal care unable to stop the deterioration of his gums or improve the increasing loosening of his teeth. He sought definitive remedial action through full dental clearance, but was circumspect on the prospect of full dentures. In particular he felt he would not be able to tolerate a full upper denture because of gagging... Read more
