Patient Testimonials
Patient experiences
Patients who turn to the Nicola Lettera Team often have years of negative experiences with unstable removable dentures, failed implants or the diagnosis of insufficient bone. The testimonials tell the passage from the difficulty of eating and smiling to a normal life with fixed, stable and natural teeth after the Bilateral Sinus Solution™ (BSS).
Patients who turn to the Nicola Lettera Maxillofacial Team often have years of difficulties behind them, removable dentures that do not stay in place, failed implants or the diagnosis of "there is not enough bone". Here are some of the most common experiences:
"I had lost all my upper teeth and wore a denture that moved continuously. I could not eat an apple or a sandwich in public. After the BSS procedure, I have 14 fixed teeth that do not move. I eat everything, I smile without shame. My life has changed."
— Patient treated with Bilateral Sinus Solution™ (BSS), 68 years old
"They had told me that a bone reconstruction procedure with harvesting from the iliac crest was needed, with 18 months of waiting. I discovered BSS, I did everything in one week: procedure and fixed prosthesis. Incredible."
— Patient with severe maxillary atrophy, 62 years old
"For years I lived with an upper removable denture that caused continuous irritation and sores. I could no longer enjoy food. With BSS I regained the possibility of eating anything, without the fear that the denture would move."
— Patient with total upper edentulism, 72 years old
These testimonials represent the stories of many patients who regained confidence and quality of life thanks to the treatment. Every case is unique and results may vary based on individual clinical conditions.
Results
Patients treated with Bilateral Sinus Solution™ (BSS) report fixed and stable teeth that do not move during chewing, no fake gum with the Circolare d'Autore® zirconia-ceramic prosthesis with a natural appearance, functioning posterior molars that restore full masticatory capacity, aesthetic improvement of the smile and recovery of taste sensitivity without a covered palate.
Patients treated with the Bilateral Sinus Solution™ (BSS) consistently report a series of positive results:
- Fixed and stable teeth: the prosthesis is screwed onto the implants and does not move, even during the chewing of hard foods
- No fake gum: the Circolare d'Autore® in zirconia-ceramic has a natural appearance and is cleanable like real teeth
- Functioning posterior molars: the presence of 6 posterior molars (3 per side) restores full masticatory capacity
- Improvement of aesthetics: the smile is completely restored, with a natural and harmonious appearance
- Recovery of taste sensitivity: without the palate covered by the denture, you fully enjoy food again
Quality of life after BSS
The quality of life after BSS improves in eating with the possibility of eating any food without limitations, in sociability by smiling and speaking in public again without shame, in self-esteem by recovering self-confidence, in hygiene simple as with natural teeth and in sleep without a prosthesis to remove at night.
The impact on quality of life is the most significant result reported by patients:
- Eating: possibility of eating any food, without limitations, in public and in private
- Sociability: smiling, laughing, speaking in public again without shame or embarrassment
- Self-esteem: recovery of self-confidence and psychological well-being
- Hygiene: ease of cleaning, as with natural teeth (toothbrush, dental floss, interdental brush)
- Sleep: no prosthesis to remove at night, no snoring or sleep apnoea problems related to the denture
