How Col. Man Mohan Regained His Smile at 65

At Dr. Sanjay Kalra’s Multispeciality Dental Clinic, every patient brings a unique story that inspires us to push boundaries and deliver life-changing results. One such remarkable journey is that of Col. Man Mohan, a retired army officer whose perseverance and trust in us led to an extraordinary transformation.

When Col. Man Mohan first visited our clinic, his primary concern was pain in one of his teeth. A closer examination revealed a challenging situation—there was an instrument breakage in the affected tooth, which necessitated extraction. But this was only the very beginning.

Col. Man Mohan had four missing teeth, extracted at different times over the years. The gradual loss of these teeth had caused his bite to collapse, creating what we call a “mesodistal space” issue. Additionally, his bite was far from ideal—he had an end-on bite, a crossbite in one of his front teeth, and noticeable wear and tear on his remaining teeth. It was evident that his oral health had been significantly impacted, both functionally and aesthetically.

A Comprehensive Plan for Restoration

Understanding the complexity of his condition, we crafted a detailed, multi-phase treatment plan tailored to his needs. The first step was to address his alignment issues. Using Invisalign, we began correcting his bite and creating the necessary space for tooth replacements.

Yes, you read that right—Invisalign at 65! Col. Man Mohan’s case serves as a testament to the fact that age is no barrier to achieving a healthy and beautiful smile. Over time, his bite was improved, his alignment was corrected, and we prepared his jaw for the next phase.

Restoring What Was Lost

Once the alignment was perfected, we moved on to replacing his missing teeth. Dental implants were strategically placed to restore functionality and fill the gaps left by years of tooth loss. This phase required meticulous planning to ensure the implants integrated seamlessly with his jawbone and provided a sturdy foundation for the final step.

The Finishing Touch

In the final phase, crowns were placed on the implants, completing the transformation. The results were astonishing. Col. Man Mohan’s bite was restored, and he could chew comfortably again. The wear and tear on his teeth were minimized, his smile was rejuvenated, and most importantly, he regained his confidence.

Beyond the Smile

What makes this story truly special is the message it carries. At 65 years of age, Col. Man Mohan embraced a challenging, three-year treatment journey with patience and determination. His story is a powerful reminder that it’s never too late to invest in your health and well-being.

Today, he enjoys improved oral health, enhanced functionality, and a smile that reflects his vibrant personality. His journey has become an inspiration for our team and our patients, proving that transformative dental care is possible at any stage of life.
