Our very own Dr. Pat Cuozzo and Dr. Mehreen Merchant recently published an article in the prestigious Seattle Study Club® Journal! Along with colleagues Dr. Anthony M. DiCesare and Dr. Lisa Indelicato, our orthodontists presented a case review entitled: “Hopeless but Still Useful Primary Lateral Incisors in the Preservation of Vertical and Buccolingual Bone Dimension.” The article illustrates the orthodontic treatment process for a young patient who also required dental implants due to missing permanent maxillary lateral incisors and how the doctors were able to successfully preserve bone dimension without requiring bone augmentation. The before-and-after photos in the publication provide a thorough look at the amazing results.

The Seattle Study Club® is a compendium of doctors across the globe devoted to continuing education and furthering their knowledge in order to provide patients with the best possible care.
