A beautiful, healthy smile is a key element of overall well-being. If you’re facing multiple dental issues, from missing teeth to structural damage, full mouth rehabilitation with Dr Vesna offers a transformative solution. Her comprehensive approach is designed to address not only the aesthetics but also the functionality of your entire mouth, providing a renewed sense of confidence and oral health.
Full mouth rehabilitation, also known as full mouth reconstruction or restoration, is a comprehensive treatment plan that combines various dental procedures to rebuild and restore the entire mouth. This approach is often recommended for patients with extensive dental problems, including:
- Severe Tooth Decay: When tooth decay has progressed to an advanced stage, affecting multiple teeth, a full mouth rehabilitation can help address decayed teeth, restore their function, and prevent further damage.
- Multiple Missing Teeth: Missing teeth can impact both the appearance and functionality of your smile. Full mouth rehabilitation can include solutions such as dental implants, bridges, or dentures to replace missing teeth and restore a complete, functional smile.
- TMJ Disorders: Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) disorders can cause jaw pain, headaches, and difficulty chewing. Full mouth rehabilitation can involve treatments to address TMJ issues, providing relief and improving jaw function.
- Trauma or Injury: Dental injuries resulting from accidents or trauma may require extensive restoration. Full mouth rehabilitation can help rebuild damaged teeth, restore bite alignment, and improve the overall appearance of the smile.
- Worn or Eroded Teeth: Chronic teeth grinding (bruxism) or acid erosion can lead to significant wear on the teeth. Full mouth rehabilitation can involve restorative procedures to rebuild worn teeth and protect against further damage.
The Comprehensive Treatment Plan:
- Comprehensive Examination The first step in full mouth rehabilitation is a thorough examination. Dr Vesna will assess the condition of your teeth, gums, jaw joints, and overall oral health. Advanced diagnostic tools such as digital imaging may be used to gather detailed information.
- Treatment Planning After a root canal procedure, the affected tooth may become more fragile. A dental crown is often recommended to strengthen and protect the treated tooth, ensuring its functionality for years to come.
- Restorative Procedures Restorative procedures play a central role in full mouth rehabilitation. This may include dental crowns to protect and strengthen damaged teeth, bridges or implants to replace missing teeth, and fillings to address decay.
- Orthodontic Treatments Misaligned teeth can contribute to various dental issues, including bite problems and jaw pain. Orthodontic treatments such as braces or clear aligners may be incorporated into the rehabilitation plan to achieve proper alignment.
- Periodontal Care Healthy gums are essential for a successful full mouth rehabilitation. Periodontal treatments, such as scaling and root planing, may be performed to address gum disease and create a stable foundation for the restored teeth.
- Cosmetic Enhancements While the primary focus of full mouth rehabilitation is on restoring function, cosmetic enhancements are often integrated to achieve a harmonious and aesthetically pleasing result. This may include porcelain veneers, teeth whitening, or gum contouring.
- Implant Dentistry Dental implants are a key component of full mouth rehabilitation for replacing missing teeth. Implants provide a stable and natural-looking foundation for crowns, bridges, or dentures, restoring both the appearance and functionality of the smile.
Benefits of Full Mouth Rehabilitation:
