Broken Front Teeth After Trauma Restored with RCT & Same-Day Veneers | Gurgaon Case Study
Patient Concern
A 65-year-old patient visited Six Sigma Dentistry after a fall at home, resulting in fractured upper front teeth.
This led to:
- Reduced smile confidence

- A visible damage affecting facial aesthetics
Diagnosis & Clinical Findings
On detailed examination and radiographic analysis:
- Fractured maxillary anterior teeth
- Pulp exposure requiring root canal treatment
- Adequate tooth structure remaining for restoration
- Surrounding teeth were healthy
This made the patient a suitable candidate for tooth preservation and aesthetic restoration, instead of extraction.
