About the Case:

Patient reported to the dental clinic with a request of restoring a compromised upper incisor. The tooth contributed towards the smile, speech and biting efficiency of the patient and they wanted a cosmetic and functional replacement. The asymmetry of the incisors has a detrimental effect on the smile window as well. Patient felt hesitant to smile and speak while socializing. The patient wanted an effective and durable solution for their dental problem.

Consequences of Delaying the Treatment

For the following reasons the patient sought to restore the upper right incisor:

• The noticeable gap affects the smile line and facial symmetry
• Uneven distribution of force causing wear of adjacent teeth
• Difficulty biting into food items
• Unclear speech due to problem with pronouncing words with "s," "f," and "v" sounds
• Progressive damage to the remaining tooth structure leading to cracks or fracture
• Damage to surrounding gums and bone increasing risk of periodontal problems
• Loss of space due to drifting of adjacent teeth into existing gap
• Repeated injury to temporomandibular joint due to incorrect anterior bite

The Treatment Journey

To restore the upper right incisor both aesthetically and functionally, the patient was treated with an Illusion Zirconia Dental Crown. Using advanced digital impression technology, the tooth was scanned with high precision—eliminating the need for traditional messy molds. The digital scan was then used to design the crown with CAD/CAM technology, ensuring an accurate, customized fit that perfectly matched the patient’s natural dentition.

The Results

The restoration of the upper right incisor with an Illusion Zirconia Crown delivered outstanding results.

• Aesthetically,

  the crown blended flawlessly with the surrounding teeth, restoring the natural symmetry and brightness of the patient’s smile.

• Functionally,

  the tooth regained its full strength, allowing the patient to bite and chew with confidence and ease.

• Emotionally,

  the transformation brought a renewed sense of self-esteem, as the patient felt comfortable smiling, speaking, and engaging socially without hesitation.

Why Treat Early?

Restoring the anterior teeth at the earliest opportunity is always a good idea. The upper right central incisor already has a compromised framework and due to stress or overloading it may get even more traumatized. If the tooth is fractured or any more fraction of it is lost more invasive & complex procedures may be required. This will impact the number and duration of appointments and increase total treatment cost.
