Abstract

Patient: The patient was a 40-year-old female with a chief complaint of masticatory disturbance with a deficit of |4 and esthetic dissatisfaction with a deficit of |4 and maxillary anterior teeth. Mild crowding and unsuitable form in the anterior teeth, low brightness due to nonvital teeth of 32|23, and shade mismatching with composite resin filling were observed. Those teeth were esthetically improved with all-ceramic crowns and a fixed partial denture.

Discussion: Sharing images before treatment by diagnostic wax-up and gradual modification of a provisional restoration based on patient subjectivity resulted in high satisfaction of the patient.

Conclusion: A step-by-step treatment procedure in line with the patient’s high esthetic demands led to a favorable outcome.
