What is Full-Mouth Reconstruction?
Full-mouth reconstruction is a highly personalized and multi-faceted approach. It's typically recommended when most or all teeth in both the upper and lower jaws need significant attention due to extensive damage, decay, wear, or missing teeth. The goal is not just to fix a single problem, but to address multiple concerns at once – creating a balanced and functional bite, alleviating tooth pain, and improving your overall oral health and the appearance of your smile.
When is Full-Mouth Reconstruction Necessary?
Our dentists may recommend full-mouth reconstruction for patients suffering from one or more of the following dental concerns:
- Missing teeth
- Severely damaged or decayed teeth – teeth that are extensively cracked, chipped, broken, or suffering from widespread decay
- Worn-down teeth due to teeth grinding (bruxism), acid erosion, or a misaligned bite
- Chronic jaw pain due to bite dysfunction
- Advanced periodontal disease that has led to tooth loss, bone loss, or gum recession
- Dental injury or trauma
The Full-Mouth Reconstruction Treatment Process
At Olympia Advanced Dentistry, your full-mouth reconstruction treatment will start with a thorough consultation. Our skilled doctors will work closely with you every step of the way, developing a customized treatment plan tailored to your unique needs and goals.
At your consultation, we'll perform a thorough exam of your teeth, gums, TMJ function, and bite. We'll take a detailed look at your smile using tools like digital X-rays, 3D imaging, and impressions of your teeth to create models. We'll listen carefully to your concerns, desires, and expectations of treatment.
Your doctor will develop a detailed, customized treatment plan and explain each recommended procedure, the expected timeline, and associated costs, plus answer any questions you may have. Depending on your custom treatment plan, full-mouth reconstruction may involve a combination of advanced dental procedures like:
- Dental implants. The gold standard for replacing missing teeth, providing a stable foundation for crowns, bridges, or dentures.
- Dental crowns. Custom-made crowns may be placed over damaged, weakened, or heavily restored teeth to restore their shape, strength, and appearance.
- Dental bridges. Used to replace one or more missing teeth by spanning the gap and being anchored to adjacent natural teeth or implants.
- Porcelain veneers. Thin, custom-made shells bonded to the front surface of teeth to improve their color, shape, size, or length.
- Dental inlays and onlays. Partial crowns can be used to restore teeth with moderate decay or damage that is too extensive for a filling but not severe enough for a full crown.
- Orthodontics. Clear aligners may be used to properly align teeth and correct bite issues before other restorations.
- Full or partial dentures. Removable appliances to replace multiple missing teeth, sometimes supported by implants for greater stability.
- TMJ treatment. To alleviate pain and dysfunction in the jaw joints.
During your consultation, our team will also determine if any preliminary procedures must be completed before your restorations can be successfully placed. Once all preparatory and foundational work is complete, your final restorations will be placed, then carefully adjusted to ensure proper bite and maximum comfort. We'll also provide you with detailed instructions on how to care for your new smile and maintain your results into the future.
