Having a healthy and attractive smile is not only a symbol of confidence; it also says a lot about your oral health. However, for those dealing with multiple dental issues such as missing teeth, severe decay, or misalignment, achieving a healthy and aesthetically pleasing smile may seem like an unattainable goal. Thankfully, full mouth reconstruction can address some of your problem areas and give you something worth smiling about.
How Do You Know If You Need a Full Mouth Reconstruction?
You may be a candidate for a full mouth reconstruction if you’ve worn your teeth down due to grinding, multiple teeth are broken and/or cracked, your teeth have fallen out (or they’re otherwise missing), and if you’ve had teeth filled but they are now suffering decay.
What Should You Expect During a Full Mouth Reconstruction?
The first part of a full mouth reconstruction entails a consultation with our dental experts. During the consultation, we will ask about which mouth maladies you have that have caused you to come in. Our team will also likely perform a brief examination.
After checking your mouth, we will recommend treatment as part of a full mouth reconstruction. For example, you may receive dentures, dental implants, orthodontics, veneers, bridges, crowns, and/or onlays, depending on your trouble areas.
The reconstruction could take one or more appointments. The more severe the issues, the longer our dentist will need to rebuild your mouth. When we conclude the reconstruction, you will have a brighter, more complete, straighter smile.
How Long Does It Take to Recover from a Full Mouth Reconstruction?
Since a full mouth reconstruction is a complete oral makeover done in phases, the overall recovery time can take several months. If you have titanium rods fused into your jaw, the recovery could be up to six months.
