The Problem

Cathy had spent years hiding her smile due to severe dental issues that affected her confidence and quality of life. Her dental challenges made social interactions daunting and limited her ability to enjoy the foods she loved.

Here’s what Cathy faced before coming to Opus Smile:

  • Worn and Missing Teeth: Years of wear, decay, and tooth loss left Cathy with uneven teeth and visible gaps, making her smile look incomplete.
  • Speech and Eating Difficulties: Missing teeth affected her ability to eat comfortably and speak clearly, which added to her frustration.
  • Bone Loss in the Jaw: Prolonged tooth loss had caused some bone shrinkage, altering the natural contours of her face.
  • Low Self-Esteem: Cathy’s dental condition left her feeling self-conscious, avoiding photographs and limiting her social engagements.

Determined to reclaim her confidence and live life to the fullest, Cathy sought a comprehensive and lasting solution.

The Solution

After an in-depth consultation with the expert team at Opus Smile Antalya, the All-on-4 implant system was recommended for both her upper and lower jaws. This solution promised a stable, permanent, and aesthetically pleasing restoration of her smile.

Treatment Journey

1. Consultation and Planning

  • Cathy underwent a thorough dental assessment, including 3D scans to evaluate her bone density and oral health.
  • A custom treatment plan was crafted to address her specific needs, ensuring both functionality and aesthetics.

2. Implant Placement Surgery

  • Cathy’s surgery was performed under local anaesthesia combined with conscious sedation to ensure a comfortable experience.
  • Four implants were strategically placed in each jaw to provide a solid foundation for her new teeth.
  • Temporary prosthetic teeth were attached immediately, allowing Cathy to leave the clinic with a functional and confident smile on the same day.

3. Healing and Integration

  • Over the next 3-4 months, Cathy’s implants fused with her jawbone in a process known as osseointegration.
  • Regular follow-ups were scheduled to monitor her progress and ensure everything was healing as expected.

4. Final Prosthetic Fitting

  • Once healing was complete, Cathy returned for her permanent prosthetics – beautifully crafted zirconium crowns that looked and felt like natural teeth.

Why All-on-4 Was the Right Choice for Cathy

  • Stability and Comfort: The fixed prosthetics gave Cathy a secure, stable bite, eliminating the discomfort of removable dentures.
  • Natural Appearance: Her custom-designed zirconium crowns blended seamlessly with her facial features, giving her a radiant, youthful smile.
  • Improved Confidence: Cathy’s new smile transformed her self-esteem, enabling her to embrace life without hesitation.
  • Bone Preservation: The implants helped stimulate bone growth, maintaining her facial structure and preventing further bone loss.

Why Don’t We Show Before Images?

At Opus Smile, we prioritise patient dignity and respect. Every smile transformation is deeply personal, representing a journey that often stems from challenges with confidence and self-esteem. Showing “before” photos may feel intrusive and does not align with our commitment to celebrating positivity and progress.

Instead, we focus on showcasing the stunning, life-changing results of our treatments. Our goal is to inspire and highlight the potential of what you can achieve with us – a brighter, more confident smile that reflects your true self.

If you’d like to see examples of full case studies, including treatment details and outcomes, we’re happy to share them during a one-on-one consultation. This allows us to provide tailored advice while maintaining our high standards of respect and patient privacy.
