Dr Sherif Elbarbary - SME Prosthodontics

🦷 Andrew’s F/F 🦷
He came to us with unstable, unaesthetic dentures that had been repaired one too many times. Originally referred to offer him implant-supported dentures, we followed our usual protocol: start with well fitting conventional dentures and reassess.

The result? A stable, comfortable, and natural-looking smile, no implants needed!

Andrew couldn’t be happier with good results and saving money 💵 😄🦷
