Whiteline Clinical Case: Julie's Complete Transformation with Zirconia Crowns
By: Dr. Eduardo Trujillo
Specialist in Endodontics and Partner at Whiteline
At Whiteline, every smile tells a story. Julie's is a testament to how modern dentistry can go beyond aesthetics to restore function, health, and self-confidence to our patients.
Julie came to our clinic seeking a radical improvement. She wanted to work on the aesthetic and functional aspects, because her teeth were very damaged, which affected her chewing. After a thorough evaluation, we presented a comprehensive treatment plan to rehabilitate her smile with our Specialists in Oral Rehabilitation.
The Diagnosis and the Plan
The case presented several challenges:
Severe wear and deep pigmentation on the front teeth.
The need for root canals in several teeth due to large cavities or fractures.
The requirement of a material that was aesthetic and extremely resistant to withstand the force of the bite.
The solution was a complete rehabilitation with metal-free zirconia crowns, a material that offers the best combination of natural beauty and durability.

Step by Step of a Comprehensive Treatment
Health Phase: First, we performed the necessary root canal treatments to ensure that the base of her teeth was healthy and free of infection.
Preparation Phase: We proceeded with crown lengthenings on some teeth. This is crucial to ensure that the future crowns have a perfect fit margin and an adequate seal, to guarantee the long-term success of the treatment.
Design Phase: We performed a mock up, which is a preview of how the work will look. This allows the patient to have an idea of the final result of the treatment and make adjustments if necessary and if possible. It is an important step, especially when several restorations will be performed on the patient.
Results Phase: The zirconia crowns were cemented (glued) with precision. The result was a smile that was not only impeccable in color and shape, but also perfectly functional and harmonious.
The entire process was completed in a time of 3 months, accommodating Julie's schedule needs.
The Result: More than a New Smile
Julie's case exemplifies our philosophy: treat the patient, not just the tooth. We achieved:
Restore correct chewing function.
Create a natural and radiant dental aesthetic.
Restore her confidence to smile without reservations.
