Implant and bonded retainer
Jamie had a ‘congenitally absent’ upper front tooth which is ‘dentist speak’ for a tooth that never grew.
Jamie needed fixed brace treatment first to move his teeth to the correct positions and to open a space For a replacement tooth.
When the brace treatment was finished a dental implant was placed in the upper space and restored with a crown to replace the missing tooth.
Finally bonded retainer (a wire glued to the backs of the teeth) was added to keep the teeth in their straight positions.
