Ashley’s Life-Changing Dental Treatment

When Ashley first arrived at our clinic, she was carrying more than just dental concerns — she was carrying years of frustration, discomfort, and the emotional toll that comes with a smile you can’t show with confidence.

riginally from Ontario, Ashley had spent years trying to find a solution for her complex dental concerns. With 11 missing teeth, a misaligned jaw, and a bite that didn’t function properly, she had been told there was little that could be done. “It was just a bloody mess,” she recalls in her testimonial.

“That made me very self-conscious of smiling. I would really try and cover my mouth.”

But Ashley didn’t give up.

After moving to Alberta, she began searching again — this time with renewed hope. That search led her to our team at Vivid Specialized Dentistry, and eventually to a full smile transformation built on trust, expertise, and a highly collaborative treatment plan involving orthodontics, dental implants, jaw surgery, and custom crowns.

“It’s been a long journey, but it’s also been a very satisfying journey,” Ashley says. “You can’t put a price on that.”

The Treatment Behind the Transformation

Ashley’s case was one of the more complex full mouth rehabilitations we’ve had the privilege to work on. It required careful planning, collaboration, and patience — not just from our team, but from Ashley as well.

Her treatment plan included:

• Orthodontic work through Callingwood Orthodontics to help correct the position of her teeth and jaw

• Five dental implants to replace missing teeth

• Six custom crowns to restore strength, function, and appearance

• Surgical jaw correction to bring her bite into proper alignment

Each step brought her closer to a functional, confident smile. Ashley’s case wasn’t quick — it took years of commitment, healing, and trust. But the result is not just visible in her smile, it’s in the way she talks, carries herself, and reconnects with the world.

“I glow when I look at my teeth… I love my smile, I really do.”

That’s what drives us. At Vivid Specialized Dentistry, we don’t just restore teeth — we rebuild confidence, function, and quality of life. And in Ashley’s case, we were honoured to walk that journey with her.
