“It’s evident that they prioritize their patients’ dental health. Dr. Morgan and his team displayed exceptional expertise and took the time to thoroughly explain each step of the procedure. I highly recommend them for their skills and friendly demeanor.”
Robert’s teeth had been through a lot. First, he had a complex bite which caused his front teeth to hit end-on-end. Function is at it’s core of everything I do as a dentist. Along with that, Robert’s teeth displayed fluorosis, which is a commonly seen tooth malformation in West Texas. Fluorosis occurs when there is too much fluoride in the drinking water when permanent teeth are developing (around age 3). Robert had been unhappy with the appearance of his teeth since he was a young kid due to the mottling and stained look fluorosis leaves.
Then in recent years, Robert had battled cancer and WON, but the effects of chemotherapy and immuno-suppressant drugs had taken their toll on his oral health.
Dr. Morgan’s Expertise“I needed to get this man back to smiling, eating and functioning again with a solid, long term prognosis”
We decided to do a full mouth restoration by crowning each tooth with a conservative crown. By using this approach we were able to open up his bite and keep his teeth from hitting end-on-end, while also closing the gaps on his front teeth. The results were also stunning- no more brown pitting. Robert now has a healthy smile that should stay stable with regular six-month dental cleanings.
Everyone’s teeth has a story to tell. I’m just thankful to be a part of the healing process for my patients.
