Dear John Doe,
Following your recent consultation with me on October 10, 2023, I am writing to summarize the key points discussed and the proposed treatment plan.
During your visit, we addressed your concerns regarding the discomfort and misalignment of your upper dentures. You have a history of prosthodontic treatment, including the placement of full upper dentures five years ago. Upon examination, I noted significant wear on the dentures and some irritation on the upper gum line.
We performed a panoramic X-ray to assess the underlying bone structure, which showed no significant bone loss. Based on these findings, I recommend replacing your current dentures with a new set that will provide better fit and comfort. We will take new impressions at your next visit to ensure a precise fit.
I advise you to continue using the prescribed oral rinse twice daily to alleviate gum irritation. Additionally, please avoid hard or sticky foods that may exacerbate the discomfort.
Your next appointment is scheduled for October 25, 2023, where we will proceed with the impressions for your new dentures.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or concerns regarding your treatment plan. I look forward to seeing you at your next appointment on October 25, 2023.
With best regards,
Yours sincerely,
Dr. Emily Smith
