As the name implies, full mouth reconstruction refers to rebuilding and/or replacing all of the teeth in a patient’s mouth. Full mouth reconstructions combine aesthetics with the science of restorative dentistry to improve the health, function, and beauty of the mouth.
Full mouth restorations are suitable if you have the following issues:
• Multiple missing teeth due to decay or trauma.
• Misaligned teeth that affects your biting efficiency.
• Short, severely worn teeth that are chipped and broken.
• Experience teeth grinding and loss or worn teeth as a result of long-term acid erosion (foods, beverages, acid reflux).
If you think you require a full mouth reconstruction, make an appointment with Areeb for a comprehensive examination.
Process
The examination process requires X-rays and photographs, models of your upper and lower teeth. Once Areeb has obtained all information relevant to your case, he will develop a comprehensive, step-by-step treatment plan with you.
Based on the diagnosis, Areeb may recommend a combination of dental procedures for your full mouth rehabilitation. Some of them include:
• Initial scaling and polishing of your teeth and gums.
• Crown lengthening to expose healthy, sound tooth structure for possible crowns or bridges.
• Remove and replace existing tooth decay and dental restoration.
• Teeth preparations.
• Temporary restorations.
• Placement of permanent restorations.
