The following case was completed during a recent Advanced Posterior
Aesthetics course (with Dr. Ronald Jackson) at the Las Vegas
Institute for Advanced Dental Studies.
“This patient presented with a deteriorating ¾ gold
crown on #36. As is evident in the before photo, a root canal
had also been performed on this tooth in the years after the
crown had been placed. Tooth #37 had recurrent mesial decay and
a failing composite restoration. Tired of “chipped” unsightly
restorations, the patient wanted metal-free solutions.
We began by removing the gold crown and prepped for a full Cristobal+
crown on #36. On #37, we removed the old composite restoration,
removed the decay and placed a Cristobal + Inlay. The patient
was amazed by the dramatic change to what ‘looks just like
natural teeth’ as well as the smoothness of the final surface
to the tongue.”
