Full mouth rehabilitation


Your dentist can recommend full mouth rehabilitation if you've lost several teeth or your teeth have been seriously damaged by decay or trauma. This includes repairing all teeth in the upper and lower jaws and the gums, jaw and other facial structures can also be included.

To help preserve your healthy smile and enhance overall oral hygiene, full mouth rehabilitation incorporates dental implants, crowns, veneers and other therapies. This will need to be removed or they may be used to help your new teeth if you still have any good teeth left.

What is rehabilitation with full mouth?

Full mouth rehabilitation is also known as full mouth reconstruction or regeneration, the artificial rebuilding of the worn teeth, jaw, gums and other structures of the mouth and face.

Your recovery can be carried out solely by your dentist or a team of dentists and oral surgeons specialized in various fields, such as endodontists, orthodontists, periodontists and restorative dentists, depending on your condition and the type of care you require. To help repair the dental structure of your mouth and avoid any harm from happening, they will prescribe a detailed treatment plan.

Total oral therapy typically requires several procedures over several visits that are completed. However, with a single visit to your dental clinic, some procedures such as dental implants can be completed.

These treatments substitute solid, long-lasting prostheses for missing or damaged teeth that promise to look, sound and act like natural teeth. They can also regenerate damaged gum and bone tissue in your jaw and promote fresh bone growth.

Who would take advantage of full mouth rehabilitation?

If there is significant harm to your teeth, gums or jaw, your dentist may prescribe a full reconstruction. The most prevalent theories for full mouth recovery are:
  • There are only a few to no healthy teeth left in your mouth.
  • By grinding, your teeth were excessively worn
  • With decay, injury or other trauma, the teeth are badly affected.
  • You've found an issue with your bite,
  • Periodontal (gum) disease has weakened the gums.
If you need to repair many teeth, full reconstruction can also be a more effective and comfortable choice than individual dental implants. These therapies help to restore the mouth's strength and function as well as its appearance.

What are medical opinions?

To determine the most appropriate treatment plan for you, your dentist will conduct a comprehensive examination of your teeth. This may include the use of dental x-rays to produce braces, crowns and other prosthetics and may include taking an impression of the teeth.
Total mouth recovery can include one or more of the following procedures, depending on your condition:

Dental Implants

Dental implants are restorations of titanium that are inserted in the jaw and act as replacement roots for the tooth. A porcelain or ceramic crown is protected by the implant, which is built to look like your natural teeth. You will need a bone grafting operation if your jaw does not have enough bone mass to support an implant.

Bridges and Crowns

Porcelain or ceramic plates, which are placed over damaged teeth or dental implants, are dental crowns. They can act as replacement teeth and are built to look like your natural teeth, to feel and to function.
Artificial teeth that are used to cover holes where teeth have been lost or removed are dental bridges. Bridges can consist of a single substitute tooth or multiple teeth and are protected by crowns on both sides.

Gum Surgery

If periodontal disease affects your gums, your dentist can first try to remove the plaque by scaling and root preparation. You will need a soft tissue or bone graft to replace missing or damaged tissue in the roots of your gums, jaw and teeth if your gum disease is advanced.

Jaw Surgery

Your dentist can suggest jaw surgery if your malocclusion is too serious to be treated using orthodontics. This includes realigning and repositioning the jaw, which may assist with problems with bites and temporomandibular  joint disorders (TMD).

Orthodontics

Your dentist may prescribe orthodontic treatment such as braces or clear alignments to correct your bite if your upper and lower teeth do not fit together properly. Before other recovery procedures begin, the orthodontic care should preferably be completed.

How long would it take?

Your full mouth rehabilitation length and scale will depend on how severe your condition is and the type of treatment you choose.
In more serious cases, treatment at the dental clinic or other locations may require multiple visits and can take more than a year. This is particularly the case if you need bone grafting, as it may take up to six months for the new bone tissue to fuse with your jaw before dental implants can be inserted.
