title: A new smile for a new life.
abstract: In this article we have shown that with meticulous planning, proper preparation, and good communication, state-of-the-art dentistry can be performed (Figure 14). Our attention to detail in every aspect of this case provided us with exceptional results. By using the Captek crowns as an alternative to conventional porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns, we were able to provide this beautiful young woman with both a functional and aesthetically pleasing smile.
