Full Mouth Rehabilitation

A Full Mouth Rehabilitation, also known as full mouth reconstruction or restoration, is another term for a series of treatments performed to restore a patient’s full oral health after they have experienced severe decay, traumatic injury, acid erosion, teeth and gum damages or other issues that affect teeth, gum and jaw.

 

It is a combination of different restorative dental treatments to fix or rebuild all of the teeth in both the upper and lower jaws, thus getting the mouth back to its best possible health.

 

Full mouth reconstructions typically involves general or restorative dentists (performing procedures like crowns, bridges and veneers), and can incorporate dental specialists like periodontists (specializing in the gums), oral surgeons, orthodontists (specializing in tooth movements and positions) and endodontists (specializing in the tooth pulp treatment).

 

Whether you have lost your teeth to decay, periodontal disease or even an accident, you do not have to live without those teeth for the rest of your life, a full mouth rehab is the best solution.

The procedure

The procedure requires high dental expertise to restore the dental health, the jaw structure, the mouth function and the natural look. It is called a full mouth rehabilitation because it includes more than one cosmetic dental procedure which could include:

Dental Crowns: Dental crowns repair and strengthen teeth affected by decay or damage. They offer additional structural support compared to porcelain veneers and are ideal for correcting imperfections of the teeth.

Dental Implants: An innovative solution for missing teeth, a dental implant can become a permanent part of your mouth. It has natural-looking aesthetics and supreme stability to efficiently restore lost form and function.

Gum Re-Contouring: Excessive gummy tissue contributes to a gummy smile, affecting the proportion of the gums and teeth. Re-contouring the gums removes excess gum tissue for a more balanced appearance of the smile.

Periodontal Care: Deep cleaning and root planning can eliminate or minimize the common symptoms of gum disease, including bleeding, redness, swelling, and discomfort.

Porcelain Veneers: Veneers are designed to conceal imperfections in the tooth like cracks, chips, discoloration, stains, and misalignment. A thin layer of porcelain is attached to the tooth to enhance its appearance.

TMD Treatment: To lessen the symptoms associated with the temporomandibular joint disorder, dentists will evaluate the balance of the jaw, head and neck movement, and force of the bite. A treatment plan is then made to meet your unique needs.

A Full Mouth Rehabilitation treats toothaches, missing teeth, muscle pain, jawbone pain, gum disease, and even headache.
