A case of extensive caries

In this case, we treated a young patient with extensive carious lesions—a characteristic example of hyperdontia. The causes were multifactorial: inadequate oral hygiene, frequent consumption of sugary drinks, and periods of reduced saliva flow.

The treatment plan was based on a holistic approach, aiming not only to restore functionality but also to improve aesthetics. It included:

– Endodontic therapy (root canal treatment)
– Tooth reconstruction with post reinforcement and full crown
– Multiple fillings on affected teeth
– Resin veneers on anterior teeth to enhance shape, color, and symmetry

The patient’s cooperation was excellent, and the final result showcases a healthy, natural smile—with increased confidence and improved daily oral hygiene habits. Another example of how modern dentistry can change a person’s life.
