At REVA Dental Implant Center, we believe that restoring a smile goes beyond just the physical transformation—it’s about reigniting confidence and joy in one’s life. Today, I want to share a particularly touching story that exemplifies our commitment to this belief, the story of Becky.
Becky’s journey to a new smile began through her husband’s initial consultation with us. Interestingly, as her husband proceeded with his smile design, he kept mentioning Becky and expressing a wish that she could experience a transformation similar to his. Sensing the significant impact this could have on her life, he selflessly decided to put his own treatment on hold and prioritize Becky’s dental needs.
Becky came to us wearing a denture, facing what is known in dentistry as ‘combination syndrome,’ a condition exacerbated by significant bone loss due to prolonged denture use. This had led to a situation where more invasive measures were necessary. Our team recommended zygomatic implants—a more advanced and robust solution tailored for severe cases like hers where traditional implants might not suffice due to insufficient bone.
The decision to opt for zygomatic implants marked a pivotal moment in Becky’s treatment. These implants, which anchor into the denser bone of the zygoma, or cheekbone, allowed us to provide a stable and durable foundation for her new teeth, despite the extensive bone loss she had suffered.
Throughout the process, the transformation in Becky’s smile and, more importantly, her confidence, was remarkable. After the final placement of her zirconia teeth, the emotional impact was visible not just to us but to her family as well. Her husband, who witnessed her transformation, was moved to tears, reflecting the deep personal and emotional significance of her new smile.
Becky’s story isn’t just about the technicalities of dental implants or the specifics of a dental procedure. It’s about the profound effect that a renewed smile can have on a person’s life. It’s about someone who had resigned herself to a life constrained by dental issues, finding new hope and joy. It’s a testament to why we do what we do at REVA: not just to restore smiles, but to restore lives.
At REVA, each patient’s journey is unique, but the goal remains the same—to provide transformative results that empower our patients. Becky’s story is just one of many, and it reinforces our commitment to excellence and compassion in every smile we restore.
