Case Study 1

Case Study 1: Full-Mouth Dental Implants

This patient came to us with severe oral health issues and deep frustration. Not only was he unhappy with the appearance of his smile, but he had also received discouraging news from several other practices. He was told removable “plates” were his only option. He had no idea that dental implants were a viable alternative. After visiting our office, he finally received a full-arch solution that restored both his smile and his confidence. Dr. Friedberg and our team performed a complete implant procedure in just one day. The result? A total transformation—functional, aesthetic, and emotional. This case study shows how case studies dental implants can illustrate true patient success.
