Full Mouth Reconstruction Parker, CO
Your mouth performs a wide array of important functions every day. Your mouth helps you to eat and speak. When you smile, it is the first thing that others take note of. Your mouth is made up of many different components that enable it to perform its essential functions properly. If one or more of these components becomes injured or irritated, your entire quality of life suffers. You may find that even the smallest movements become difficult or painful. At Parker Dental Implant and Specialty Center, we can help to restore the functions of your oral health, the functions of your mouth, your smile, and your quality of life with a full mouth reconstruction.
What Is Full Mouth Reconstruction?
With numerous components in your mouth, there are many different types of issues that can affect it. Moreover, different issues affect different people. The issues affecting your mouth are going to be different from those affecting the mouths of other individuals. A full mouth reconstruction is a type of treatment performed to meet your specific needs. It is a completely personalized treatment similar to a smile makeover. However, where a smile makeover focuses solely on the goal of improving the quality of your smile, a full mouth reconstruction improves your smile, your oral health, and the functions of your mouth.
Is a Full Mouth Reconstruction Right for Me?
Before undergoing a full mouth reconstruction, we first perform a thorough consultation. This consultation is necessary to make certain that it is the best solution to meet your needs. We begin with a complete examination of your mouth. We visually inspect your teeth and gums, checking for issues such as poor alignment, uneven or excessive wear, physical damage, decay, gum recession, and gum disease.
We also take images of your mouth, such as digital x-rays or other scans, to assess the hidden components of your mouth. These images allow us to examine the roots of your teeth, your jawbone, your joints, and more. We can see root damage, bone loss, bone damage, infections, and other issues. Your exam allows us to assess the condition of your mouth to determine what issues are affecting its health and what treatment or treatments will be the most beneficial.
You may be a candidate for a full mouth reconstruction if you have suffered facial trauma or severe tooth decay. You may also be a candidate if you have excessively worn teeth, are missing teeth, or are dealing with significant jaw pain.
What Procedures Are Performed?
Once we pinpoint the issues affecting your mouth, we can then determine the best treatments to meet your specific needs. Treatments may involve endodontic, restorative, orthodontic, periodontal, and even oral surgery. There are many different treatments involved in full mouth reconstruction.
