Tanya’s case is an excellent example of the success of veneers. Many patients have healthy teeth and gums, but they are not satisfied with the color and general appearance of their teeth.
Creating ceramic veneers is a very delicate procedure, which is why trying on the finished veneers is an important part of the treatment. In this video from the tryout, you can also see how the veneers sit on the teeth and what a tooth prepared for veneers looks like.
Maintaining hygiene in the area around dental implants is as easy as brushing your teeth, only other techniques are used. Our recommendation is the Waterpik floss, with the occasional use of an interdental brush and floss.
Although implants are a permanent solution, this does not mean that the patient does not have to take care of hygiene. The space around the implant is cleaned daily to prevent the development of bacteria, using a water floss, interdental brush or a special dental floss.
A year ago, the patient had a ceramic restoration made of 14 metal-ceramic crowns on 8 implants and the patient received all the necessary instructions for maintaining hygiene.
Natalie Drake from London spent two years looking for an office in Europe where she would get a Hollywood Smile. In a short conversation, she explains why she chose the Cvejanović dentist’s office.
Sedation is an excellent, and often the only option for patients who are afraid of visiting the dentist’s. In the latest edition of Friday Talks, we answered patients’ questions about sedation and tried to solve some of the most common dilemmas.
The patient came with a great fear of the very thought of the dentist and a desire to install implants. In agreement with the patient, we decided to perform the intervention under intravenous sedation with the presence of an anesthesiologist.
Like detectives reopening an old case, we realized that the new techniques allowed us to significantly improve some of our earliest All-on-6 restorations.
The patient contacted us from Rijeka in order to solve her dental problem. In addition to advanced periodontitis, the patient also lost upper back teeth.
Dental office Cvejanović has available two comfortable apartments for patients who need accommodation in Belgrade during the intervention.
Prosthesis mounted on implants is a solution that can be combined with other solutions, so here, Dragan got a restoration in the upper jaw and crowns in the lower jaw. Although these are two completely different solutions, the difference is imperceptible.
Zoran is another patient who decided to have a snap-in denture. We thought that this solution would not be particularly popular, but it turned out that it is important for patients to have a reliable implant work, even when it is not as esthetically superior as ceramic crowns.
Ljuba Cetić wanted snap-in dentures, but her jawbone was so thin due to years of toothlessness that we had no way to place the implants. We tried atypical implant positions and luckily for us and Ljuba, we managed to place the denture.
Jozo belongs to a growing group of patients who opt for snap-in denture, mounted on four implants per jaw. This prosthetic restoration represents a huge improvement compared to the classic plastic retainer, because there is no sticking and falling out of the piece, the feeling is more pleasant, and the appearance is more natural.
Up until now, the placement of implants was performed using classic surgical methods, which meant making an incision, placing the implant and suturing the surgical wound. Computer-guided implant surgery offers us a totally different approach to implant placement
The patient came to us with the desire to finally get dentures that are fixed and do not fall out of her mouth.
The final dental piece, be it a denture, bridge or s crown, must be long-lasting, and that is why all patients come for a follow-up after a year, so that we can see if there are any changes in the restoration.
Immediately after the Hollywood Smile procedure, we asked Tatiana if the final piece met her expectations.
At our clinic, we often have to replace crowns placed by other dentists. These are frequently crowns that have stood firmly for 20 years, and we take our hats off to these colleagues. However, sometimes it happens that a patient comes straight from another office, dissatisfied with the crowns they have received. This is exactly what happened to Mira, who sought rectification with us.
Zorica is one of those patients who have unreserved trust in the dentist. She wanted us to organize everything, with her only having to show up, and she is happy that the entire procedure went well, “more like visiting relatives than going to the dentist’s”.
At the time when our country’s tourists are getting ready to go to Montenegro, a Montenegrin came to Belgrade as a tourist, a dental tourist. Patients from the region are our favorites, because all of them could have gone to local dentists, with similar prices, but have chosen us instead.
You may remember Mirjana from one of our earlier videos, when she got her veneers. Today, two years later, she comes in for her second regular checkup, and it was an opportunity to see if there were any changes after that period and to ask her how she was feeling.
Many patients take their time before going for the Hollywood Smile procedure, because they are not sure what awaits them, and Dragana was one of them. How does she view the procedure and her initial misgivings, now that it’s all over?
Patients come to our office from all over the world. They are sometimes foreigners, and sometimes our people who live outside of Serbia. It is often quite a surprise have a visit from our former neighbors, especially when they hail all the way from Alaska.
How would you react when a patient tells you that their restoration is clearly the best you’ve ever done? If you agree, the former patients get upset, if you disagree, the current patients get upset.
We are so used to Dragan Marinković Maca that we already miss him in the office. We expect him to here for a checkup in a year, and until then we will watch him on TV. Here is the conversation we recorded after the final checkup of his Hollywood Smile, in which he expresses his impressions of the piece he received.
A satisfied and healthy patient is our only goal, because a satisfied patient will recommend us to others. See what the patients say after the procedure is completed – their experiences will give you a closer look at what it feels like to get restorations such as Hollywood Smile, ALL-ON-6, or dentures.
Daniela wanted to convey her message in German, hoping to help patients in Germanic countries discover the benefits of coming to Belgrade for dental procedures, such as her Hollywood Smile.
Our patients from Western Europe who receive complex restorations sometimes have to come to Serbia several times until we have finalized their restoration, and this was true for Sonja. She decided to record this message for future patients in Swedish and was kind enough to leave a translation.
Natalie Drake from London spent two years looking for an office in Europe where she would get a Hollywood Smile. In a short conversation, she explains why she chose the Cvejanović practice.
As the number of ALL ON 6 procedures in our practice increases, more and more patients come for long-term check-ups, among which the most important is the check-up after the first year. We commend Daniela for maintaining excellent hygiene around the implants, so that her piece looks as good as it did on day one.
Miloš is one of our youngest patients so far who received a Hollywood Smile, and after the first check-up, he wanted to record a short message to future patients.
We spoke with Spomenka, whose optimism contributed to her successful completion of her implant procedure, despite many obstacles. If you haven’t done it already, you can see Spomenka’s restoration on our profile on Instagram and Facebook.
We asked Ilijana how it feels to see herself in the mirror for the first time after getting a Hollywood Smile
Željka always used to smile even before she got the Hollywood Smile, and now she smiles with even greater enthusiasm. Immediately after receiving the crowns, we asked her how it felt to wear a Hollywood Smile.
Danilo returns to the office after a period of integration of implants in the jaw, during which he wore temporary crowns. Before he sat in the chair to get the permanent crowns for the ALL ON 6 restoration, we asked him if he was happy with the temporary crowns.
Our dear patient Danijela came in for a check-up after two months with her ALL ON 6 restoration, and now she admitted how scared she had been before the procedure. We asked her to say a few words in front of the camera and encourage fellow scaredy-cats
We recommend patients from abroad who received a Hollywood Smile in our office to come for check-ups at least once a year. During a recent checkup, we asked Tomaž from Slovenia if he was satisfied with his new teeth in everyday life, to which Tomaž replied with a small anecdote.
The final dental restoration, be it denture, bridge or crown, must be long-lasting, and that is why all patients come for a checkup after a year, so that we can see if there are any changes in their piece. We were just visited by Milimirka, who wears implant-retained dentures, and we took the opportunity to ask her what her impressions are after 12 months.
After the procedure was completed, we asked Sabahudin how he experienced the process of getting ALL-ON-6 work. We don’t ask patients to do PR for us, but sometimes they willingly take on that role.
Hollywood Smile may be performed in two parts. First, Marko received reconstruction of the upper jaw, which was more urgent, and a couple of months later he will come to finish the work. His delight is more than evident
The esthetic effect is not the most important benefit featured by crowns on implants in the ALL ON 6 option, but it is rather the complete restoration of tooth function, both in speech and chewing.
As detectives returning to an old case, we found that the new techniques allowed for a significantly improved earlier All-On-6 restorations. We called the patient who was among the first owners of All-on-6 implant and replaced the entire piece for free
The patient called from Moscow with the desire to permanently solve the problem with his teeth. In the first stage, 8 Nobel Biocare implants were placed and infections were treated at the tips of the roots of the front teeth.
Amira came to Cvejanović’s surgery with the desire to have a Hollywood Smile, that is, white and beautiful teeth. In order to achieve this, we had to place 6 Implant Direct implants and Sinus Lifts.
The patient came to the surgery in search of a solution to the problem with the lower and upper jaw. It was agreed that we would first deal with the upper jaw, and in the second phase to focus on the lower jaw as well.
Huguette came all the way from Switzerland in search of the perfect smile. The language barrier did not prevent her from addressing us, and it did not prevent us from helping her. Now we have another satisfied patient and a friend of the clinic – and we are slowly learning French!
A journey of more than 7,000 kilometers is not too long when you are looking for a perfect smile, and Mijo Paraica knew that too. After searching online for dental clinics in Canada, Croatia and Serbia, he finally decided on the Cvejanović office to solve his dental problems!
The patient came scared to death of the very thought of the dentist and a desire to place implants. In agreement with the patient, we decided to perform the procedure under intravenous sedation with the presence of an anesthesiologist
Meet Aleksandar – he approached us with the desire to finally get himself a normal smile. The patient had a congenital cleft lip and after a multitude of operations, it was time to solve the situation with the teeth.
Aleksandar had most of his teeth, but the periodontitis was so advanced that ALL ON 6 was the only long-term solution. And while for most patients the biggest challenge with this procedure is extracting the remaining teeth or getting used to the implants, for Aleksandar none of that was a problem. However, we ran into a problem when we saw that the patient had an urge to vomit when he felt a foreign object in his mouth, which is every dentist’s nightmare.
Chicago is the US city from which most of our American patients come from. Since the Americans of Serbian descent spread a good word about our office in their city, now we receive patients from all communities, the most numerous of whom are Polish. One of them is Peter.
Most of the patients who leave the office with ALL ON 6 restoration had not heard of this procedure upon arrival. ALL ON 6 is a pleasant surprise for them, with the common slogan that they regret not coming earlier. Our latest satisfied patient is Verica.
After Dragan received ALL ON 6 piece in Hungary, the implants were rejected, and the piece was also lacking esthetically. We decided to redo the restoration, we explanted part of the implant, took it out, and part of it already fell out on its own, and we placed new implants.
ALL ON 6 is a high-end implant technique, specially designed for edentulous patients and patients whose remaining teeth do not have a good prognosis.
After the recent correction of the cleft lip and bad bite reconstruction with the Hollywood Smile procedure, we eliminated another problem in a similar way, which is the congenital lack of two teeth. Patient Alma has wanted to have second incisors all her life, and now her wish has finally come true. ★彡
Valerija is the proud owner of ALL ON 6 on both jaws, and the difference between the patient’s appearance before and after is stunning. We are very glad that she chose our office, even though she comes from Novi Sad, where she could have gotten ALL ON 6.
In addition to being the most complete solution, ALL ON 6 is also the only adequate solution for extremely receding gums, because, unlike dentures, it does not have to partially rest on the gums.
The temporary piece, which the patient wears for the first three months after the placement of the implants, helps to make the adaption to implants seamless. The temporary restoration is very comfortable, because it is fixed to the implants, and patients are greatly relieved once they get it, whether they used to wear plastic retainers or were partially toothless and did not wear a prosthesis
Making a plastic model is an optional phase of ALL ON 6 procedure, which prolongs the procedure, but allows us to make all the necessary changes to the final ceramic restoration
The esthetic effect is not the most important benefit featured by crowns on implants in the ALL ON 6 option, but it is rather the complete restoration of tooth function, both in speech and chewing.
Although implants are the permanent solution, this does not mean that the patient does not have to take care of hygiene. The space around the implant is cleaned daily to prevent the development of bacteria, using a water pick, interdental brush or a special dental floss.
As the number of ALL ON 6 procedures at our office increases, more and more patients come for long-term check-ups, among which the most important is the check-up after the first year. We commend Danijela for maintaining excellent hygiene around the implants, so that her piece looks as good as it did on day one.
We have recently completed a very complex procedure, which included the adaptation of previously placed implants at another clinic, the shortening of excessively pronounced gums and the complete restoration of the smile. None of this would have been possible if the patient had not been very tolerant and understanding.
After the procedure was completed, we asked Sabahudin recount his experience during the process of getting ALL-ON-6. We don’t ask patients to do PR for us, but sometimes they take on that role themselves.
We owe a debt of gratitude to all the patients who agree to film them, because video is the best way to get a message across. In this case, we have shown the difference between temporary plastic ALL ON 4 restoration and permanent ceramic one.
The ALL ON 6 procedure is a solution for complete toothlessness, and involves the placement of six implants per jaw and the placement of ceramic bridges on a titanium base. In this video, Doctor Srđan explains the course of the procedure, along with a video of handing over the temporary ALL-ON-6 piece to a patient.
One of the important stages within the complete implant restoration is the selection and creation of a temporary solution. Several months need to pass between the placement of implants and the placement of definitive crowns, and during this period the patient can wear a plastic prosthesis or a temporary bridge. Both solutions are shown in the video.
A special type of implant, the screw retained system, provides additional security to the patient because the bridges can be removed and finished at a later time. Although most implants do not require modifications, when the patient has a screw retained system, possible interventions are immeasurably easier.
As detectives returning to an old case, we found that the new techniques allowed us to significantly improve some of our earliest All-on-6 work.
Although we remind the patients daily they are wearing a high-quality temporary piece while we allow for the osseointegration of implants, we often forget to photograph the stage of the procedure in which the patient wears a temporary restoration, which we seek to rectify here.
Family visits to the dentist are a great idea, as patients support one another, especially when it comes to major procedures. Verica and Bisan prove that age is irrelevant.
Danilo returns to the office after a period of integration of implants in the jaw, during which he wore temporary crowns. Before he sat in the chair to get the permanent ALL ON 6 crowns, we asked him if he was happy with the temporary crowns.
Sabahudin is our latest visitor from Germany, where we receive a large number of patients, mostly from the ex-Yugoslavia region. He now wears ALL-ON-6 with the addition of pink ceramic, to achieve a more natural look
The patient came to our surgery in search of a solution to the problem with the lower and upper jaw. It was agreed that we would first deal with the upper jaw, and in the second phase to focus on the lower jaw.
Patient Dragan got a new smile, thanks to a special type of screw-retained implant restoration. It is a system that gives additional security to the patient, because the bridges can be removed and reworked at a later time.
It often happens that the upper and lower jaw are not in the same condition, so two different approaches are needed. Danijela thus received ALL-ON-6 restoration in the upper jaw and a combination of implants and crowns in the lower jaw.
Claudio came from Switzerland with only four teeth, and he returns with an ALL-ON-4 full ceramic bridge implant solution.
ALL-ON-6 is an implant solution for complete toothlessness. The procedure is quick and painless, while the solution is extremely comfortable. Wearing ALL-ON-6 is an especially enjoyable for people who previously wore uncomfortable plastic dentures, like Živana.
Today, complete toothlessness can be resolved with just three visits to the doctor’s office. Only 12 implants are needed for complete implant restoration on the upper and lower jaw, and thanks to the ALL ON 6 technique, the patient does not spend a single day without teeth and only wears a plastic denture for two months.
Ruzica’s biggest problem was her fear of the dentist, and the only way to overcome that is to make the patient feel as pleasant as possible in the office, and this tactic restorationed wonders with her. The second challenge was whether Ružica would be able to eat immediately after the Hollywood Smile operation, since she was going straight from the doctor’s office to the New Year’s celebration. Not only was she ready to eat normally that evening, but she ate at our doctor’s office, just two hours after placing her piece.
Replacing old crowns with new ones is one of our specialties. Most patients say that the crowns from our office look better than the original crowns when they were placed 10 or more years ago. It is only important that the patient comes immediately if it seems to him that tooth decay is occurring under the old crowns, which can be noticed where the crowns meet the gums. Our new patient who came to replace the crowns is Edin from the USA.
I LOVE ‘EM,” says Chris when asked how he likes his new teeth! ♥️🇺🇸 He came from the USA only based on an internet search, because he didn’t trust American dentists, who told him that in his situation it was impossible to go for a Hollywood Smile, that is, they were going to take out all his teeth.
Here you see how crowns are placed on contoured teeth before cementing the Hollywood Smile restoration. If on trial it is shown that the position of each crown is appropriate, the patient goes home the same day with a new Smile.
When you have eight minutes of free time, grab a coffee or a cold drink and follow Rada, who will show you around the office and introduce you to the staff. If we had known that Rada was such a talented presenter, we would have scheduled the procedure much earlier. 📺
Bruxism is involuntary or excessive teeth grinding, sometimes at night, sometimes while conscious. In Nemanja’s case, it led to him effectively having eaten away all his lower jaw teeth, and the solution was a Hollywood Smile, with a slight change in the position of the teeth to prevent grinding urges.
We made a movie! We also have a professional actor, Maca, but this time he is not acting, but was our patient for ten days, which is how much it took him to get a Hollywood Smile. Join him on the journey to a new Smile with an overview of each stage of the procedure, 100% from the patient’s point of view. Enjoy! 🍿
Our popular actor and presenter recently received Hollywood Smile restoration, about which we also shot a short film.
Whenever we manage to create a big change for the better in the general appearance of a patient, we are at once glad that we could help, but also feel regret because it would have been better if everything had been done earlier, and the precious years have been lost.
Hollywood Smile can also save teeth that look extremely bad. That’s why Hollywood Smile should not be seen as a procedure for the elite, but as a restoration that can change everyone’s life.
Amra’s restoration is one of the most demanding that we did in 2020. Not only did it include two completely different types of restorations in the upper and lower jaw, but in the upper jaw it included correction of the gum line, which was too low (gummy smile).
Coming from Alaska to Belgrade at a time when the pandemic is complicating all travel is a considerable undertaking. Well done Maja! We believe that the effort was worth our while!
When we look at a finished work, with most patients we have the impression that we have restored their natural smile, while with others, rarely, it seems that we have created something even a tad better.
Miloš’s restoration surprised us a little, because we did not expect that for a beautiful and young a person as he is, and possessing all teeth, Hollywood Smile could to such extent improve his appearance.
Hollywood Smile can do a lot for a woman’s beauty. Our new patient Ljiljana chose Bleach 4 crown color, which makes the teeth look more natural.
Dragana is one of over 300 patients who received a Hollywood Smile in our practice in 2020. Her restoration is a perfect example of transforming worn out and discoloured teeth into perfect white ceramic teeth. Tucked under the crowns still remain healthy roots and the central parts of the teeth.
See what the newly completed Hollywood Smile looks like, placed despite the crooked uneven teeth, and what the patient says about the feeling immediately after receiving the restoration.
A restoration that will definitely enter the Top 10 for 2020: Hollywood Smile with the correction of excessively pronounced gums. Metal-free crowns are very thin, so that the patient does not feel them as a foreign body, which becomes an ideal combination when the gums are robust and the teeth are naturally long.
Tanja is active on social media, where she is known as MilfLilly, and wanted to complement her great looks with a matching smile. We spoke with her in the office after the procedure.
Miloš came to us with a problem in the form of overlapping and crooked teeth, looking for a quick solution. He did not want to wear a denture and the only solution was the Hollywood Smile procedure, although we could not guarantee 100% success due to the complicated situation. The final result pleasantly surprised both Miloš and us.
Cleft lip is a complex condition that until now could only be solved by surgery. However, using solely dental techniques we can compensate for the lack of jawbone, which is the biggest drawback of cleft lip. Meet Aleksandar and see how we reduced his huge problem to something barely noticeable.
The Swiss have increasingly become our frequent guests, largely because complex procedures are expensive in Switzerland, but also because a good word about our office has spread all over the Alpine country. Patients come on a personal recommendation, and that’s exactly how Alexander arrived, having one of the most serious conditions we’ve seen in young people, and now leaves with a Hollywood Smile.
Although we proposed the placement of two implants per jaw for the sake of longevity, Željka wanted a Hollywood Smile without implants. We usually recommend replacing the most worn out teeth with implants, but if the patient is against it, it is possible to work with teeth that are in very poor condition, as long as the roots are healthy.
Patient Željka was always smiling even before she got the Hollywood Smile, and now she smiles with even greater enthusiasm. Immediately after receiving the crowns, we asked her how it felt to wear a Hollywood Smile.
A married couple from the USA returns from a vacation in Serbia with bright Hollywood Smiles. Let’s take a look at their story and transformation.
Gummy smile is the excessive display of the gums when smiling, which is a problem that can be easily removed surgically. Reducing the gum line is a particularly good decision when the patient is placing crowns at the same time.
Ilijana came to the office with healthy but crowded teeth, misaligned and of different height. Furthermore, when smiling, the gums showed too much, and all these imperfections were rectified with the Hollywood Smile procedure.
We asked Ilijana how it felt to see her face in the mirror for the first time after getting a Hollywood Smile
We recommend patients from abroad who received a Hollywood Smile in our office to come for check-ups at least once a year. During a recent check-up, we asked Tomaž from Slovenia if he was satisfied with his new teeth in his everyday life, to which Tomaž replied with a small anecdote.
Temporary crowns are the standard in dentistry today. During the creation of any piece that involves the placement of implants or contouring of teeth, patients receive temporary crowns, which they wear from when the tooth is either contoured or pulled out until the permanent restoration is placed.
Miloš is one of our youngest patients so far who received a Hollywood Smile, and after the first check-up, he wanted to record a short message to future patients.
The key moment for any Hollywood Smile is handing over the restoration. Temporary acrylic crowns are removed and the permanent ceramic crowns are placed, which get their final shape after the final tryout, a few days earlier.
When the patient is missing several teeth, the Hollywood Smile turns from an esthetic procedure into a restorative procedure, where it is necessary to determine which teeth can carry crowns, which can carry bridges, and where implants are needed. However, the complete procedure can be completed in just 14 days
When the starting point for the Hollywood Smile are healthy natural teeth, the patient can choose to have the new crowns retain the length, width and inclination of the natural teeth, i.e. that the new teeth are like the old ones, only more beautiful and aligned. That option was chosen by Angela, our final patient before the break.
We recently completed a very complex procedure, which included the adaptation of previously placed implants from another office, the reduction of excessively pronounced gums and the complete restoration of the smile. None of this would have been possible if the patient had not been tolerant and understanding.
Although designing a smile, preparing teeth and creating crowns for a Hollywood Smile is not an easy task, the final stage of crown placement is incredibly fast and simple. A complete transformation happens in just a few minutes.
Natalie Drake from London spent two years looking for a clinic in Europe where she would get a Hollywood Smile. In a short conversation, she explains why she chose the Cvejanović dental practice.
When you already wear crowns or bridges, like Sandra, it is important to correctly estimate when it is time for a new set. Since her problem of naturally missing two front teeth was present only in the upper jaw, we performed the Hollywood Smile in only one jaw, although we normally do not recommend it.
Most people whose teeth are in bad condition think that it does not matter when they should go to the dentist’s, since they will inevitably have to get crowns and implants. This is a big mistake, because Hollywood Smile restoration, which does not require implants, is up to four times cheaper than restoration with implants.
Hollywood Smile has the best effect when the basis is robust teeth and healthy gums, as with our patient Katarina.
Gummy smile is an excessive display of the gums when smiling, which is solved by moving the gum line. Ana wanted a Hollywood Smile, but first we had to solve her gummy smile issue.
When young patients ask to get crowns or veneers, we usually dissuade them and recommend braces and teeth whitening instead. However, if the irregularities in the position of the teeth are small enough and the patient wants an immediate result, Hollywood Smile is a realistic option.
When young patients ask for a Hollywood Smile, it is mostly because they want to look like stars. In Matea’s case, the reason was an unsuccessful teeth whitening
When we have the patient’s trust, every procedure is much easier, because we can concentrate on the restoration itself. We had Jacques’ full confidence even though we did not know a word of any common language, but his smile suggests that we hit the bull’s eye.
What happens when the patient has crooked teeth that are in poor condition, as well as periodontitis, but insists on keeping the teeth? In this case, most dentists will only fix the teeth and clean the deposits as much as possible. However, we have shown that such a patient can also get a Hollywood Smile
What is a Hollywood Smile? Patients and the general public often confuse the Hollywood Smile with the placement of implants or have incomplete information about this procedure. If you are interested in Hollywood Smile, in this video we explain everything you need to know.
We have a solution even for extremely serious cases. With the help of implants and caps, another Hollywood Smile came out of our office, in this case, in the form of metal crowns in the back, and metal-free crowns in the front area. The addition of pink ceramics as camouflage further contributed to putting a smile back on Jovan’s face.
As patients become more and more interested in the Hollywood Smile, the questions become more and more specific. In this video, we answer some of the most common questions about the first stage of Hollywood Smile restoration, which are related to the choice of crowns and the conditions for placing implants.
Hollywood Smile can be a two part procedure. First, Marko had his upper jaw reconstructed, which was more urgent, and in a couple of months he is coming to finish the restoration. His joy is more than evident.
A Hollywood Smile based on metal-ceramic crowns is financially favourable for the patient, but a challenge for the dentist. If the patient does not insist on a dazzling smile, metal-ceramic crowns are a good option, as we can see from the example in patient Dragoslavija.
The case of Branko Prsić, who got a Hollywood Smile without tooth extraction and despite a large gap between the teeth, well illustrates the flexibility of this dental procedure. It seems unbelievable that behind the caps that we see at the end of the video there lie the same unsightly, spaced out teeth from the initial photos.
Another Hollywood Smile procedure brought our patient Zoran the smile he had been dreaming about for a long time!
By far the most common misconception about implants is that the patient has to wear an uncomfortable plastic denture in the period between tooth extraction and getting crowns, a denture which is impossible to get used to in a short time.
Sometimes patients want to have only one jaw reconstructed, but we usually dissuade them from this because it is quite bad, both esthetically and functionally. Miladinka wanted the upper jaw to be done first because it presented a bigger problem for her, and in this case we met the patient half way, leaving the restoration on the lower jaw to be carried out two months later.
Sebastian wanted to get implants in the gaps where the teeth are missing and to replace the old metal-ceramic crowns with a Hollywood Smile. Another complete transformation, and with only three implants.
Patients are often unaware that their remaining teeth represent an additional risk, because when most of the teeth are missing, the remaining teeth are often infected and weaken the bone over time, reducing the chance of successful implant placement. Slaviša is our patient who received a Hollywood Smile based on a combination of caps on implants and natural teeth.
Amira came to Cvejanović clinic with the desire to have a Hollywood Smile, i.e. white and beautiful teeth. In order to achieve this, we had to place 6 Implant Direct implants and Sinus Lifts. In the second phase, we made all metal-free crowns, and the patient got the desired smile.
Among the most frequent questions of new or potential patients are those related to the problem of complete edentulism. Is it possible to place implants in both jaws without a single natural tooth remaining? How long does the process take? How much does it cost?
Since we started operating again on May 5th, patients most often ask us what precautionary measures have been taken, as well as the easiest way to get to the office. We give answers to these questions in our new video.
Sedation is an excellent, and often the only option for patients who are afraid of visiting the dentist. In the new Friday Talks, we answered patients’ questions about sedation and tried to solve some of the most common dilemmas.
Teeth adjusting clear aligners are far more discreet than braces and you can take them off whenever you want! You will learn all about them from Dr. Zlata, in a conversation guided by Andrea.
Clear aligners are the easiest way to straighten teeth, popular with patients from abroad and others who do not have time for frequent denture check-ups. If you missed our previous video where we discuss clear aligners, don’t miss watching it now!
A popular trend in dentistry is to resolve ever more serious issues employing ever less invasive solutions. A problem like Milan’s used to require multiple surgeries, but now we are able to solve it all with just 3-4 afternoon visits to the dentist.
For Zorica, accommodation within the office was a decisive factor when choosing a dentist. In the coming post, see the conversation with Zorica about her stay in Serbia and the Hollywood Smile she got.
