Happy Independence Day Malaysia! 🇲🇾✨
Let’s take a look at this case where the central incisors decided to be “independent” of each other….Yeap, we’re talking about Median Diastema [spacing between your front teeth].🤗

Why not Braces? 🤔 Answer’s in the second part of this caption.☺️But first, let’s walk through the treatment. 🦷

To achieve this result:
Composite Restoration removal • Smile Design • In-office Dental Whitening • Mock-Up • 8 unit Composite Veneers

Patient initially came in with old, overhanging composite filling on her centrals (swipe left to see). Note that how the overhanging margins have caused Gingivitis!

We discussed about the treatment option of getting Orthodontics treatment (“braces”) to close the gap after filling removal, but before that, we have to consider 2 things:
🦷 Width of the Central Incisors and the Laterals might not be of the proper proportion after filling removal. IPR may be required on the laterals to balance out the ratio.
🦷Patient still has a Class III occlusion (lower teeth are in a more “frontward” position) despite having Braces done before. We might need lower IPR/premolar extractions/retraction with TADs if we were to close that upper teeth gap.
A few other treatment options were discussed and in the end, she decided to proceed with composite veneers.

It is important to discuss treatment options with the patient and go through the pros and cons with them. I always allow my patients to think about their treatment options for a few weeks prior finalising the treatment plan to better the outcome and expectations.☺️

Have a great holiday and a great week ahead yall!🤗

The M.E. Series (The Millennial Experience). Created all on Mobile with #iPhone12ProMax

Weekend. Raining. Work had been hectic. Needed to take some time off to recharge. Covid. WFH. Blurred lines between work and personal time. No time to shut off from work completely. Found myself working from screens to screen. Laptop to phone. Even leisure is watching videos online.

In need of time for a digital detox.

Found a bookstore that was opened in Feb this year, in the heart of Orchard Road, Wheelock Place. Where the Borders flagship used to be. If you know what I’m talking about, you’re from my time. I recall the times when I was still in secondary school, hanging at Borders with my friends who love reading, and I will be there checking out the CDs.

Heard that it has a 2 storey space with a cafe and gallery as well. Heard that the ones in China open 24hours, although it’s not happening in SG yet

——

Zall Bookstore, an outlet with more than 30,000 books mostly in Chinese, also has a cafe and art gallery

——

“Ms Laura Yan Ge, 24, who is general manager of the Singapore store, said at a media preview on Friday that while the company did not anticipate the coronavirus outbreak erupting amid its expansion, it believes bookstores are especially vital during a pandemic.

‘Because of Covid-19, there is a lot of distance between people nowadays," she said in Mandarin. "We believe books will help to close this gap. They provide food for thought and people can use them to widen their worlds.’”

As a creator myself, I need to constantly find inspiration.

While I can readily find all sorts of information online, sometimes I found my mind being constantly overloaded instead. We read. Socialise. We basically live most parts of our lives in the virtual world, and now we have lesser and lesser reasons to get out there anymore.

So, why a new book store? When was the last time you visited a book store?

Being here made me realised that it’s not about the books. It’s about the space. It’s about the experience. It’s about being here and being present. And what happens when you unplug from the internet and be present in the moment? You’ll get involuntarily intrigued by the surroundings, the people, the architecture, the noise, the beauty of it all. You’ll find headspace. You’ll find your inspiration. You’ll even find a new you.

When was the last time you stepped outside, set aside time just for yourself, and experience life beyond the screen?
