Full mouth rehabilitation, also known as full mouth reconstruction or full mouth restoration, is a comprehensive dental treatment plan that involves restoring all of the teeth in a person's mouth. It is typically recommended for people who have severe dental problems or have lost a significant number of teeth, and it may involve a combination of various procedures, such as fillings, crowns, bridges, implants, and dentures.
The goal of full mouth rehabilitation is to improve the function and appearance of a person's teeth and restore their ability to chew and speak properly. It may also involve correcting problems with the bite (the way the upper and lower teeth fit together) and the alignment of the teeth.
Full mouth rehabilitation is typically a long and complex process that requires multiple dental visits over a period of time. The specific treatment plan will depend on the individual's needs and may include procedures such as:
Cleanings and periodontal treatment to remove plaque and tartar and treat gum disease
Fillings and crowns to repair or replace damaged or decayed teeth
Bridges or implants to replace missing teeth
Orthodontic treatment to correct misaligned teeth or bite problems
Gum contouring or reshaping to improve the appearance of the gum line
Veneers or bonding to improve the appearance of the teeth
Full mouth rehabilitation can significantly improve a person's oral health and quality of life, but it is a major undertaking that requires a significant time and financial commitment. It is important to carefully consider all of the pros and cons and to discuss all of the treatment options with a dentist or dental specialist before deciding if full mouth rehabilitation is the right choice for you.
