Full Mouth Dental RestorationsFull-mouth dental restorations are made up of several procedures that replace all or most of the teeth. It may include a combination of extraction, dental implants, dentures, bridges, and other treatments. The procedures and restorations are dependent on the patient's individual needs, preferences, and the extent of restoration required. Dental ImplantsDental implants are designed to mimic the natural tooth down to the root. When teeth are lost, the roots no longer stimulate bone growth in the jaw. Over time, this may result in a sagging, sunken facial appearance. Dental implants replace the tooth roots, stimulate bone density in the jaw, prevent changes in facial structure, and restore the form and function of our patient's smiles. Whether you need a single implant, implant-supported bridge, or implant-supported dentures, our offices are the place for dental implants. Dental BridgesA traditional dental bridge replaces a missing tooth or teeth by securing crowns adjacent to the missing teeth. However, a traditional bridge requires the alteration of existing, natural teeth to place the crowns. It's important to consider an implant-supported bridge. An implant-supported bridge attaches securely to dental implants and preserves the remaining teeth while restoring the smile. Dental CrownsA dental crown is a tooth-shaped cap that restores the size, shape, appearance, and function of a damaged tooth. The most common reasons a crown is needed are tooth decay or damage. Most crowns take at least 2 visits. At the first appointment, the decayed or damaged tooth structure is removed, and the tooth is trimmed down to create room for the crown to fully cover the tooth. We will place a temporary crown to protect your tooth while the final zirconia or porcelain crown is being fabricated. At the second appointment, your new crown is tried in and adjusted. Once the fit and esthetics are approved, your crown will be secured to the tooth with dental cement.  DenturesDentures are often part of full mouth reconstruction. Traditional, acrylic dentures are affordable and held in place with adhesives and suction. However, traditional dentures sometimes slip out of place while chewing or speaking. Implant-supported dentures solve this problem by being held securely by a few strategically placed dental implants. All on XAll-on-X implant-supported dentures replace a full arch, or both arches of teeth, and are often part of a full mouth reconstruction. Full arches of teeth are secured with just a few strategically placed dental implants, usually All on 4 or All on 6. All of the teeth are restored with only 4 or 6 dental implants. This method requires less surgery, and less time spent healing to fully restore your smile. Full Mouth ReconstructionFull mouth reconstruction involves multiple dental procedures and restorations. Multiple procedures are used to fully restore a patient's smile. The procedures depend on the extent of the reconstruction needed, as well as the individual patient's needs and personal preferences. Full mouth reconstruction may include single dental implants, implant-supported bridges, implant-supported dentures, or traditional bridges or dentures.
