Do you suffer from extensive tooth loss because you’ve let decay go untreated for too long? Have you gone through years of dental wear? Both of those factors can have a significant impact on your smile. Fortunately, your dentist in Boston can create a personalized and comprehensive restoration plan to help you enjoy a complete, fully functioning grin once again. Full mouth reconstruction is a process that involves a range of treatment options to repair dental damage and deliver flawless results. Read on to learn which services your dentist may suggest to completely rebuild your smile.

Who Can Benefit from Full Mouth Reconstruction?

Full mouth reconstruction refers to rebuilding and replacing all of the teeth in a patient’s mouth. It’s a unique plan that combines esthetics with the science of restorative dentistry to improve the health, function, and beauty of the mouth.

Many people can benefit from this comprehensive and extensive treatment plan, such as those with:

  • Multiple missing teeth
  • Numerous teeth with large fillings that are failing or exhibiting decay
  • Cracked or broken teeth
  • Badly worn teeth due to bruxism (teeth grinding)

Treatment Options for Full Mouth Reconstruction

No two smiles are the same, which is why each full mouth reconstruction plan is entirely customized to meet each patient’s individual oral health needs. Here are a few common services your dentist may recommend:

Dental Crowns

Patients with a severe cavity will need to repair their tooth with a dental crown. This tooth-shaped cap is designed to cover the remaining healthy tooth structure, restoring its strength and appearance. Unlike fillings, these restorations protect the tooth from further deterioration.

Dental Bridges

A dental bridge is a prosthetic that has crowns on either side of the missing tooth gap. They’re used to hold one or more replacement teeth. Not only will a dental bridge restore a fully functioning bite, but they prevent dental drift that happens after tooth loss.

Veneers

Porcelain veneers can address multiple dental imperfections at once. Each ultra-thin shell of dental grade porcelain is permanently bonded to the front-facing portions of teeth, masking any flaw from view.

Dental Implants

Dental implants are considered the gold standard of tooth replacement – and for good reason. They replace the entire missing tooth structure, from the root up to the chewing surface. Because of their unique placement, they provide unparalleled strength and longevity.

Dentures

There are three different types of dentures: partial, full, and implant-retained. All of these options are equally capable of giving you a complete, fully functioning smile. They can improve your quality of life by giving you the confidence to freely eat, speak, and smile.  

If you think you can benefit from full mouth reconstruction, schedule a consultation with your dentist in Boston to determine if it’s the right solution for you. With their help, you can enjoy a beautiful, complete, and fully functioning smile once again!
