Full Mouth Reconstruction

A mouth reconstruction aims to improve your bite position while eliminating all of your tooth rot, outdated fillings, and outdated dental crowns. To maximize their comfort and health, each person requires a varied biting posture due to differences in their structure and jaw motions.

What is a Full Mouth Reconstruction?

All of your previous dental work, including crowns, fillings, and porcelain veneers, will be taken out by your dentist and replaced with brand-new dental work that is intended to produce the new bite. Your oral health should improve and any tooth decay or infection should be removed with this procedure.

Each full mouth reconstruction are never the same and each is specifically tailored to meet the demands of the patient.

One can normally be finished in a few weeks or months with several appointments, generally speaking. The success of a full mouth reconstruction depends not only on the treatments performed but also on their sequencing and integration. A patient will frequently have a period of time off in between treatments to see how their mouth changes following appointments, as each one must blend in perfectly with the others and perform at its best.
 

Missing Teeth?

Individuals who are missing teeth or who have had numerous dental procedures in the past, including crowns, veneers, amalgam or composite fillings, have good grounds to have their complete mouth restored. Since all of your dental treatment was completed at various points over the years, it was not always planned to blend in with the current environment or, naturally, what was to come. The dentist cannot adjust your bite or jaw position with this kind of tooth-by-tooth dentistry since they have to respect the way things are now.

We've all clenched and ground our teeth a little bit throughout the years. This implies that the speeds at which our bites erode and change vary. A person with severe bruxism (tooth grinding) has lost a considerable amount of tooth height. This can result in tooth decay, sensitivity, thin enamel, and enamel fractures—all valid reasons to think about having a bite reconstruction. As long as a whole mouth reconstruction is performed non-invasively, tooth erosion—even if it results from regular wear and chewing—can still be a compelling cause to take this into consideration.

Are there different types of Reconstruction Treatment?

Yes, there exist multiple methodologies, each aiming to achieve marginally distinct objectives. Because every dentist treats patients differently, it's important to know what can be done and what to anticipate. Similarly, there are many schedules linked to the various therapies.
 

  • Treatment completed over several months to years: The majority of complete mouth restorations involve replacing all of the damaged porcelain veneers, old fillings, and old crowns over the course of several months or years. Section-by-section dental care is the lowest level of mouth reconstruction because, although individual teeth are improved, the jaw position and bite height remain the same as they were prior to the start of the therapy. This implies that you won't probably see any gains in this area if you have a weak chin or an aging face.

  • Treatment completed in just a few weeks: The next step in a full mouth reconstruction would be to finish everything at once rather than over the course of several months. The benefit of this procedure is that it gives the dentist the chance to prepare all of the porcelain at once. The bite can be somewhat enhanced and the color will match if all of the porcelain is prepared at the same time. Any missing teeth, chewing problems, tooth sensitivity, and decay should all significantly improve at this point of treatment. As this kind of bite repair doesn't focus on perfecting the position of the jaw, you probably won't see any anti-aging effects or changes to the shape or profile of your face.

Is a Full Mouth Reconstruction Right for Me?

If all you perceive when you look in the mirror is your smile's flaws, you could need a full mouth reconstruction.

A full mouth reconstruction can be necessary if you believe there is nothing you can do to improve the appearance of your smile.

You may require a whole mouth reconstruction if you have teeth that are missing, decaying, cracked, discolored, or broken in your grin.
