Full Mouth Rehabilitation
Full mouth reconstruction, also known as full mouth rehabilitation or simply reconstruction, is a detailed and comprehensive dental procedure aimed at restoring all your teeth simultaneously. Often described as “anti-aging dentistry,” it provides a natural facelift effect by reconstructing the parts of your mouth that have suffered from age or disease-related deterioration.
This procedure is ideal for addressing issues like impaired chewing due to teeth grinding, clenching, or other damaging habits, returning the mouth to its natural state and functionality. Individuals with a “sinking face” — a condition evident when the support for the lower third of the face diminishes due to worn-down teeth — are also prime candidates for full mouth rehabilitation. This is similar to the effect seen when a person with dentures removes them, leading to noticeable creases at the front of the mouth.
When is Full Mouth Rehabilitation Necessary?
Full mouth rehabilitation involves restoring the functionality of all or nearly all teeth in one comprehensive treatment. The reasons for undergoing this reconstruction vary widely and include:
How Full Mouth Rehabilitation Is Performed
Full mouth restoration is a complex procedure that requires meticulous planning and execution to ensure a healthy, durable, and aesthetically pleasing outcome. The process begins with a thorough consultation, during which detailed examinations are conducted, measurements are taken, and a diagnostic blueprint for the entire procedure is created. The functional and aesthetic goals are established before treatment commences. Patients are also presented with case studies of successful full mouth reconstructions to help set realistic expectations.
If you believe you might benefit from full mouth rehabilitation, do not hesitate to contact us for an initial consultation. Delaying treatment can lead to further deterioration of your oral health.
