I had a patient that had a bicycle accident and face-planted on a pole or kerb or something like that. It affected a lot of his front teeth, and it was complex in the sense that there was no more shape of the teeth that were broken. There had to be a lot of root canal treatment done and what made it worse was that the patient had really proclined teeth -- the front teeth were sticking out more. He couldn’t really close his mouth normally. So the process of getting root canal treatment done, rebuilding the teeth. And then after I actually referred it to an orthodontist, a braces doctor who corrected that.
I think it was a bit more fun for me in the sense that we had to use the patient’s old photos to reconstruct the teeth properly, to how it looks like currently. It was a multi-disciplinary case as well. The build-ups, the bonding of the team. We had to correct the malocclusions because the teeth were very proclined.
