“Nik and his team have an innate ability to match the shade of the teeth. Even when I thought it was right, Nik wasn’t happy and persisted until the job was perfect.”

In this case we used a hybrid (acrylic teeth on a titanium substructure) on three implants restoring five teeth on the left side and traditional porcelain fused to gold crowns on the right. We saved the patient a lot of money with this option and the result was outstanding. The patient insisted on retaining her gap between her front teeth.

On the model
A typical hybrid restoration. This type of restoration for the patient with no teeth has become extremely cost effective with the evolution of CAD/CAM technology. Hybrids consist of a CAD designed and CAM milled titanium bar with acrylic teeth bonded to it with pink acrylic. We make titanium bars for $330 per implant unit with the total finished typical 4 implant Hybrid costing $3500 completed including using Phonares teeth which are the most expensive teeth available!

The overdenture with staining for that naturally aged look…
Removeableoverdenture on Procera CAD/CAM bar with three locators. The bars are designed at Aceram and milled in Tokyo and Sweden. Hybrids are our preferred treatment plan but sometimeswe need the bulk of denture to provide lip support. Notice the staining of the denture teeth to provide a more natural aesthetic.
