A true full mouth restoration process is complex. The first step is a comprehensive examination by Dr. Garita and his team at ConfiDental, who have extensive training and experience.
A true full mouth reconstruction requires a great deal of technical knowledge and extensive professional experience.
THE FULL MOUTH RESTORATION PROFESSIONALS AT CONFIDENTAL CONSIDER MANY ISSUES:
- Teeth: Any cavities and decay, tooth wear, cracks, short/long teeth, root canal issues, and any tooth movement; What restorative procedures may be needed, such as porcelain veneers or full-coverage crowns, inlays or onlays, bridges or implants restored with a crown.
- Gum/periodontal tissues: Identification of deep pockets, excessive or insufficient gum tissue, periodontal disease, and bone density irregularities. If gums are not healthy, a periodontist may be needed to ensure that your newly reconstructed teeth will have a solid foundation, and may include soft tissue or bone grafts to build up your gums and underlying jaw bone.
- Bite/occlusion: If there is a problem in this area, you may require an orthodontist for treatment to correct any irregularity.
- Esthetics: This includes things like the proportion, color, size and shape of your teeth, and their appearance in relation to your mouth and face – also an important factor in your treatment plan.
Records of your mouth such as X-rays, photographs, impressions, reports from other dental specialists, etc, will be immensely helpful to provide our dental team. Once all the relevant information is in place, our dental team will develop a comprehensive, step-by-step treatment plan for correcting your particular set of issues. You may wish to request a detailed written description so that you can review it and resolve any questions or concerns that you have. You will want to understand the risks and benefits. You may wish to ask what possible procedures might be required, and under what circumstances. Some of the possibilities are:
- Teeth cleaning and periodontal care
- Crown lengthening
- Orthognathic surgery to reposition the jaw
- Contouring of gum tissue
- Possible reshaping/reduction of your natural tooth structure for placement of veneers, crowns, etc.
- Temporaries, to allow for corrections to the permanent teeth
- Materials used for the permanent product
- Orthodontics, if tooth movement is necessary
- Implants for placement of crowns or bridges
- Bone or soft tissue grafting
Cost is an important consideration when having full mouth reconstruction. You will find our prices at ConfiDental are very affordable. The least expensive way to completely rebuild a mouth is with full dentures. Next least expensive would be partial dentures, then bridges, and the highest quality, most expensive option would be dental implants, which will look and feel like your own natural teeth. Of course the treatment can also be a combination of the above.
