Before and After Case of the Month

Common Dental Problems Graphic

In this month’s before & after case we have a young man with a two very large cavities on the cheek side of his lower right back molars. Cavities occur as a result of tooth decay and plaque buildup. Tooth decay is a result of bacteria eating away the enamel and dentin of the tooth. This patient’s cavity is a severe example of what can happen. Fortunately the team at Dr. Michael Roessler’s practice in Mundelein, IL has great experience saving teeth that might otherwise have to be removed.

Here is our dental patient’s before and after photographs.

Pretty serious cavities as you can see. Now take a look at the remarkable results provided by Dr. Michael Roessler.

The decay was removed and restored with a composite resin that blended in well with the color of his teeth. A wonderful cosmetic result was achieved! You can check out the full before and after case on Dr. Michael Roessler’s Flickr account, click here.
