Call the Smile Center today to schedule your appointment and let our dental specialists get to work!
What Does a Full Mouth Reconstruction Include?
We’ve already mentioned some procedures that make up a full mouth reconstruction, such as crowns or fillings. Ultimately, it’s up to the dentists at the Smile Center to determine what’s needed to get your mouth and teeth back to full health. As such, our dental specialists might recommend a combination of various cosmetic procedures like:
- Dental Implants – If you are missing multiple teeth, you have a few replacement options available. One such option is dental implants. A dental implant replaces tooth roots, providing a strong foundation for permanent replacement teeth.
- Crowns – Made from porcelain, ceramic, metal, or composite resin, dental crowns (or caps) fit over a tooth to protect it while restoring its size, shape and appearance.
- Bridges – Used with crowns or implants, dental bridges fill the gaps from missing teeth. Bridges use crowns or implants as anchors, ultimately helping maintain proper bite alignment.
- Veneers – Similar in function to crowns, veneers instead fit over the front of teeth. A veneer helps restore a broken or decaying tooth’s shape, color, and size.
- Inlays and Onlays – An inlay or onlay is a custom-made filling for restoring teeth with mild to moderate tooth damage or decay. When a filling isn’t enough to repair, but a crown might be too much, inlays and onlays are most used.
- Dentures – When most of your teeth have fallen out, are damaged or are decaying, dentures might be the best solution. They are removable and help replace multiple missing teeth and surrounding tissue.
Why Do You Need a Full Mouth Reconstruction?
Simple procedures, standard cleaning, and basic oral hygiene can resolve most minor dental issues quickly. Yet, if those dental issues get out of hand, they can lead to more complicated problems requiring full mouth reconstruction. If such is the case with your teeth, don’t fret! The Smile Center of Peoria understands the intricacies of cosmetic dentistry and how restoring the look and function of your teeth can also help with your overall oral health. As such, it’s most beneficial to pursue full mouth reconstruction when:
- Multiple teeth are damaged by a severe accident or injury
- Extreme tooth decay or infection that’s led to tooth rot and gum issues, which cannot be corrected through root canals or other oral treatments
- Excessive teeth grinding has worn down and significantly damaged the tops of your teeth
- Congenital disabilities or genetic issues have impacted the appearance and function of your teeth
