FULL-MOUTH RECONSTRUCTION

AT OPTIMA DENTAL SPA

Full Mouth Smile Reconstruction

If you live in the Pacific Northwest and need a full-mouth reconstruction, it will be worth your time to visit one of our dental spas. This is the type of specialized dentistry that requires extra training and experience to recreate a healthy, functional smile. There are many reasons why a patient might need all of their teeth restored or replaced with a full-mouth reconstruction. Trauma, genetic defects, long-term decay, or other types of damage are a few examples. Whatever the reason, we have multiple treatments available to rebuild your smile.

FULL MOUTH RECONSTRUCTION OPTIONS

AVAILABLE

Because each case is completely unique, each reconstruction will be highly individualized. The treatment is planned with consideration given to the health of the entire mouth–including the bite, the jaw, the gums and the teeth. Any of the following services could be used to provide rehabilitation of your smile. Full-mouth reconstruction is really an art form because the goal is to restore full functionality as well as providing a smile that looks completely natural. There’s nothing quite as satisfying to a dentist as seeing the joy on a patient’s face the first time they look in a mirror and see their brand new smile.

Full Mouth Reconstruction 101

Full mouth reconstruction allows us to completely reinvent your smile, replacing each and every tooth. It can be a fantastic solution to a variety of dental problems, but it’s not for everyone. In this blog post, we’ll explore what a full mouth reconstruction entails, and who can benefit from it.

Breaking Down the Options

The direction that the reconstruction process will take is completely unique to each patient and their condition. There are a variety of different components that we incorporate into the restoration process:

  • CEREC crowns are realistic-looking dental crowns that are made in-office during your visit. The quick process produces a durable, reliable cap that will completely cover your natural tooth, protecting it and masking damage.
  • Porcelain veneers are incredibly thin, super strong shells of porcelain that are custom-made to fit snugly over teeth. They are used to cover the surface to hide imperfections while providing a natural, seamless look.
  • Dental implants are a popular way to replace teeth because they feel and look natural. Implants involve an artificial tooth root that is fused with the jaw. Once healed, a custom restoration is attached. They help prevent bone loss after tooth loss, and can be used to stabilize dentures.
  • Bridges can also be used to reconstruct part of the smile. A bridge relies on two or more crowns, which provide the support to hold up the restoration. Alternatively, dental implants can be used to secure a bride.

Understanding the Need

If you’re dissatisfied with your smile, a full reconstruction sounds great, right? Well it’s quite an undertaking, and it’s not a fit for everyone. People who may be good candidates for a full mouth reconstruction are those with multiple missing teeth, multiple worn down or broken teeth, and chronic headaches and/or jaw pain with a root cause in the mouth. Our expert smile team will assess your mouth and overall health and wellbeing before determining your eligibility for a total mouth reconstruction.
