When you have several issues with your smile, including tooth decay, damaged teeth, missing teeth, and more, you may need a full mouth reconstruction. Essentially, this means combining preventive, cosmetic, restorative, and even prosthetic dentistry to address imperfections. In today’s blog, your Allen, TX, dentist talks about full mouth reconstruction.
Getting Started
First, we want to talk to you about your smile. We want to know what issues you want to see corrected, and your hopes and goals for your smile. Next, we will conduct a detailed examination with digital x-rays and intraoral cameras. These digital images will enable us to assess the cause and extent of your concerns, so we can create a personalized treatment plan. Every smile is unique, and every full mouth reconstruction is unique too, combining general, cosmetic, restorative, and prosthetic treatments to help return smiles to optimal health, function, and beauty again, often in as little as one to two visits for minor cases.
Repairing Teeth
If we discuss cavities or deep decay/infection, we can offer relief with our lifelike dental fillings, or possibly a root canal treatment followed by the placement of a lifelike dental crown. Our team can also repair cracked, chipped, worn down, or broken teeth with crowns as well. For issues with the shape and color, we could offer teeth whitening and then reshape teeth with bonding and contouring. Porcelain veneers are thin restorations that cover the front and sides of the teeth, instantly reshaping them. In two visits, veneers alone could offer major transformation. We also have custom oral appliances to address complications such as TMJ disorder and bruxism (teeth grinding).
Replacing Missing Teeth
What if you suffer from tooth loss? For minor tooth loss, we could use dental bridges or even advanced individual dental implants to address the gaps. For more severe tooth loss, we could offer full and partial dentures to fill the gaps and restore function and beauty. We could even use All-On-Four dentures to support a fixed prosthetic with only four posts. In fact, with All-On-Four the insertion of the dental implants and the placement of the denture could all happen in one visit.
If you have any questions about how we can transform the appearance and function of your smile, then contact our team today to learn more. There is still time to get started and put your remaining 2022 dental insurance benefits to good use before the year comes to a close.
