Smile Makeover by Dr. Sam Saleh of ORA Dentistry Spa Featured on The Doctors TV Show
Using advanced CAD-CAM technology, Dr. Saleh was able to completely transform a smile ravaged by years of grinding and decay.
LOS ANGELES, May 26, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- When The Doctors TV show first featured the case of Mindi, whose teeth had been literally snapping off after years of grinding and tooth decay caused by acidic drinks, it was hard to imagine that she had much hope for a normal smile. However, after bringing in Beverly Hills cosmetic dentist Dr. Sam Saleh of ORA Dentistry Spa, who offered Mindi a complete smile makeover, it became clear that a normal life for Mindi was not out of reach. By using advanced CAD-CAM technology to mill a set of restorations designed to matched the aesthetics of Mindi's facial features, Dr. Saleh was able to give Mindi a new smile that, when revealed in a recent episode, shocked even The Doctors themselves. Here's how he did it:
- Scan – As a celebrity cosmetic dentist in Beverly Hills, Dr. Saleh has to insure that all of the equipment at ORA Dentistry Spa is truly revolutionary. This includes the PlanScan CAD-CAM (Computer Assisted Design, Computer Assisted Manufacturing) technology from Planmeca. Dr. Saleh used the advanced laser scanning technology to take a precise, 3-D snapshot of Mindi's mouth that would later be used as the canvas to create a new smile upon.
- Design – Once the Planscan technology gave Dr. Saleh a clear digital model of Mindi's teeth, he was able to begin designing a smile to fit her existing dental structure and her facial aesthetics. While many dentists in this situation would simply use the same "perfect smile" template that they use for all of their patients, Dr. Saleh routinely takes the time to cater the new teeth to the patient's facial aesthetics to create a smile that truly flatters the unique appearance of each individual patient. It is this attention to detail and commitment to excellence that makes Dr. Saleh a serious candidate for the title of best dentist in Beverly Hills in the opinion of many of his colleagues and patients.
- Implement – After Dr. Saleh finished designing the necessary restorations for Mindi's smile makeover, he was able to craft each individual restoration with his in-office PlanMill machine. And, instead of having to insert a dental implant into Mindi's mouth for each tooth, Dr. Saleh was able to turn the roots of many of the teeth into implants so that they would be ready to be fully restored. This made the procedure much more low-impact and less invasive.
What's almost as incredible as the end result was that Dr. Saleh was able to complete this procedure all within a single day. While in the past, a dentist would have to send the impression of a patient's mouth to an outside lab, which would then design the restorations and send them back, the PlanScan technology allows Dr. Saleh to control and complete the project himself from within his office.
