Can only do two implants on one side of my mouth – is it even worth it?

unlikely

It is very unlikely that you can only do two implants to secure a denture, angled implants around the nerve/sinus are almost always an option on the top or bottom

Are veneers my only option or should I consider bonding again? Chipped front tooth, 49 y/o female (pho

minimal bonding

If you do not want veneers you for sure can get away with very conservative bonding that will match the existing teeth. that is what i would do for my teeth

Is it possible to round-off/reshaping my E-max veneers?

invisalign would have been the choice originally..
Jan 3, 2023

Your teeth were beautiful before and a quick 4 -6 month Invisalign would have corrected that easily, these veneers are beyond contouring and do not look esthetically pleasing at all, and just have to hope they didn’t destroy too much tooth structure

Did I need crowns instead of veneers?

poorly planned

Midline shift is not possible without orthodontics/ surgery but most people down notice a midline thats off unless it is not perpendicular to the pupils. the issue i see is the size/ shape and contour of the teeth…the laterals are way too bid and bulky and are more dominant that the canines, tooth 8 is wider than 9, and if you have crowns in the posteior addressing the cant is easy with crowns and veneers. everything looks very monoplane too…

Do I really need an implant?

It is for sure fractured…

It is fractured on the mesial/ or middle aspect of the tooth. The one issue of waiting and seeing is the extent of the fracture and amount of bone loss that can continue. This is a pretty difficult case as is to achieve an esthetic outcome, depending on your smile line, This will probably involve lots of grafting and if the adjacent teeth are already veneers a 3 unit bridge could be a better implant ( one of the few times i would ever say that )

To fix dental implants or not? And what terms & dialogue should I use to make it clear at my next cons

Esthetic Rehab probably more in line

The result is a good result for address 4 teeth, they fit natural together, but i think what you are seeing is the 4 teeth dominant relative to the rest of your smile. It seems you are very narrow and constricted in the upper arch and your canines or “i teeth) are suppose to be dominant they are too long and not protrusive enough and the premolars behind it are not existent in your smile. A full smile makeover with addressing the existing teeth would give you more the result you are looking…

Age 72, female – can you advise on temporary bridges that are crooked & protruding?

There are serious issues of concern with this case
Jan 3, 2023

This is more of a traditional luting approach for a full arch case.. i would not wait 6 months but more like 8 weeks or s and have a new 3d printed temporary denture, the way you bite will only cause issues for 6 months and this is not acceptable at all. The biggest issue is the esthetics of the implant placement in your smile/ esthetic zone, there will be no way to hide the implants/ metal/ transitional line. This seems poorly planned and executed and in need of serious revision for a good…
