Chronic Dental Woes? It Might Be Time to Consider a Full Mouth Reconstruction

Chronic Dental Woes? It Might Be Time to Consider a Full Mouth Reconstruction

Are you looking for that perfect smile? Some of us are blessed with perfect teeth and don’t need any help (besides regular cleanings!), but many of us have issues to address before feeling confident smiling for the camera.

If you fall into the latter category, it might be time to consider a full mouth reconstruction at American Dental Clinic in San Diego, California. Our expert team, led by Dr. Emmanuel Aguilar, has years of experience giving people the smiles they want. Here’s the process.

What’s a full mouth reconstruction?

A full mouth reconstruction addresses multiple major issues with your teeth and mouth. The goal is to brighten your smile, adjust your bite, restore the functions of your teeth, and improve your oral health. It’s more than a cosmetic quick fix.

This complex treatment involves a series of procedures we perform over time to build a smile and mouth to last the rest of your life. You may want to consider this service if you face more than one major issue, including:

A full mouth reconstruction can be a significant investment of time and money, but the results are worth it.

What services does it include?

We start with an initial consultation to determine the extent of your oral problems. That includes a thorough examination and assessment. Then, we develop a customized treatment plan to restore your smile. 

Our team uses the latest dental technologies and techniques to give you the best results possible. Services we might use during your reconstruction include:

Dental implants

Dental implants can replace one or multiple missing teeth. They involve a metal implant that we place in your jawbone and a crown to replace the top of the tooth.

 

Dental veneers

We affix these thin porcelain shells to the front of your teeth to give you a bright, even smile. Veneers solve many problems, including misshapen or small teeth, discolored teeth, and small gaps between your teeth.

Gum and bone grafting

Healthy gum or bone replaces diseased or damaged areas of your gums or jawbone. Dental bone grafts are common, with more than 2 million performed yearly.

Dentures

These can be partial or full sets of artificial teeth to replace damaged teeth in your mouth. If you have multiple missing teeth, dentures might be the best solution.

Cosmetic treatments

We might also recommend other cosmetic treatments, such as teeth whitening, bonding, or orthodontic treatment, to solve your dental issues.

The length of time needed for a reconstruction varies according to your situation. We complete some cases in 2-3 visits; others could take up to a year (if you’re waiting for bone grafts to heal, for instance).

If you’re considering a full mouth reconstruction, our American Dental Clinic team would love to help. To schedule an initial consultation, call our San Diego office at 858-215-2951 or book your appointment online today.
