A missing tooth doesn’t just affect your smile - it can impact your confidence, chewing efficiency, and overall oral health . At Summirow Dental Hospital, we often meet patients who are worried about gaps because of missing teeth. One such patient recently visited us with a missing upper right first premolar, feeling anxious about both appearance and function.

Patient’s Concern

The patient noticed the gap because of a missing tooth  in the premolar area whenever smiling or speaking. Beyond aesthetics, missing teeth can cause adjacent teeth to shift, affect bite balance, and even put extra strain on other teeth. Understandably, the patient wanted a long-lasting and natural-looking solution.

Treatment by Dr. Ushma Kakkad

After a detailed consultation and digital evaluation, Dr. Ushma Kakkad recommended a zirconia bridge as the ideal treatment. 

This plan included:

  • Using the canine and second premolar as support teeth. 
  • Choosing zirconia for its durability, natural look, and gum-friendly properties. 
  • Designing the bridge to perfectly blend with the patient’s natural teeth.

Procedure Steps

  • Tooth Preparation - Canine and second premolar prepared as abutments.
  • Digital Impressions - Ensured accuracy and comfort.
  • Zirconia Bridge Fabrication - Crafted to match natural shade & shape.
  • Final Placement - Bridge cemented securely for function & aesthetics.

 Why Choose Zirconia Bridges?

  • Looks natural 
  • Strong & durable 
  • Gum-friendly 
  • Long-lasting solution

Patient’s Happiness

The patient was overjoyed with the final result. Thanks to Dr. Ushma Kakkad’s expertise, the zirconia bridge restored not only the missing tooth but also the patient’s confidence and smile .
