What is a Full Mouth Rehabilitation?

A complete mouth rehabilitation is a dental procedure that encompasses several solutions that are being executed simultaneously on a patient that may require simultaneous treatments for multiple oral health conditions. Unlike a smile makeover which primarily focuses on the cosmetics and the overall smile of the patient, a complete mouth rehabilitation is tailored for the reconstruction and restoration of both function and appearance of the teeth and gums. It is a highly innovative and advanced dental restoration treatment that significantly improves the patient’s comfort, confidence, and quality of life. 

Candidates considering Full Mouth Rehabilitation are usually suffering from multiple dental problems both with their health and their appearance. They can suffer from advanced periodontal disease ( gum disease), decay, wear on the enamel, abnormal bites ( occlusion problems), temporomandibular joint dysfunction, loss of numerous teeth. Often the teeth also display poor esthetic features as far as stains,chips, cracks, discoloration etc. 

• Dental crowns.Dental crowns are used to strengthen and cover any broken, decayed or worn out teeth. They offer better durability and support than porcelain veneers, making them an ideal choice for restoring back teeth to their strength and appearance.
• Dental implants.Dental implants can provide a stable and permanent tooth replacement for missing teeth. The implants have a structure designed to look and feel just like a natural tooth and fuse with the jawbone to promote stability, look and function of the mouth.
• Gum re-contouring.Gum contouring is used to reduce excess gum tissue to create an improved relationship between the teeth and gums. This is used to rectify the appearance of a “gummy” smile and achieve an aesthetically pleasing, uniform gum line.
• Periodontal care.A thorough cleaning of the mouth and root planing to treat gum disease is used to remove harmful bacteria, and plaque and tartar above and below the gum line. This can decrease inflammation, bleeding, tenderness and recession of the gums.
• Porcelain veneers.Porcelain veneers are customized shells fitted to the front of teeth, designed to improve their appearance. Veneers can mask dental flaws like stains, chips, cracks, gaps and uneven teeth for a brighter, even smile.
• TMD treatment.Temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD) treatment aims to alleviate discomfort and improve bite function. The position of the jaw, how the muscles move and biting forces are assessed to form an individualised therapy plan that brings relief to pain and discomfort.
