When Full Mouth Restoration is Necessary
Whether your mouth has experienced decay, trauma, disease, or the wear and tear of multiple years of usage, full mouth reconstruction is a great “reset” button for your smile – helping you reach your dream smile makeover. This restoration process is completed by reconstructing or remaking the essential elements of your mouth, such as:
- Jaw: You have experienced jaw pain, a misaligned bite, or bone imperfections
- Teeth: You have teeth that have been lost because of decay or trauma, fractured teeth due to injury, or your teeth are very worn from acid erosion
- Gums: You have experienced gum disease or high levels of decay
Procedures Involved in Full Mouth Restoration
Procedures to fix these dental issues will be based on your personal needs after an in-depth consultation with your dentist. With full mouth restoration or reconstruction, there isn’t a “one-size-fits-all” approach, but rather, a highly personal style for each smile and can include several different phases and considerations. Simply put, full-mouth reconstruction isn’t a single procedure, but a combination of measures and treatments to reach your desired flawless, strong smile. Once completed, your new smile will feel functional, beautiful, and natural.
Before full mouth restoration, patients can experience trouble chewing, swallowing, or speaking. After reconstruction, the mouth is restored to function at full capacity, restoring the ability to perform those daily, common functions of eating, speaking, and swallowing.
There are several dental procedures that can be performed for a full mouth restoration:
- Onlays and inlays
- Crowns
- Bridges
- Implants
- Braces
- Root canals
- Gum disease treatments
- Fillings
- Bite therapy
