FULL MOUTH REHABILITATION

                                   Full mouth reconstruction, rehabilitation and restoration are terms often used interchangeably to describe the process of rebuilding or simultaneously restoring all of the teeth in both the upper and lower jaws.
The need for full mouth rehabilitation may result from:
  • Teeth that have been lost due to decay or trauma.
  • Teeth that have been injured or fractured.
  • Teeth that have become severely worn as a result of long-term acid erosion (foods, beverages, acid reflux) or tooth grinding.
  • Ongoing complaints of jaw, muscle and headache pain requiring adjustments to the bite (occlusion).

Treatment Options for a full mouth rehabilitation:

A. Fixed prosthesis:

Advantages of Fixed prosthesis:
  •  They can greatly improve your smile’s aesthetics.
  •  They are permanent fixtures in your mouth that can vastly improve your speech and chewing abilities compared to missing teeth and even more so than removable dentures. 
  • They are not like removable dentures, which means they cannot fall out. 
  • They can prevent teeth from moving along the jawline where missing teeth once were. Bridges also can prevent further misalignments caused by missing teeth.

B. Removable prosthesis:

    
complete Denture
 Advantages of Removable prosthesis:
  • They can greatly improve your smile’s aesthetics.
  • They are removable fixtures that can improve your speech and chewing abilities compared to missing teeth. Since they are removable, they do not need to attach to other natural teeth as dental bridges do
  •     
    Flexible denture
  • They can prevent teeth from moving along the jawline where missing teeth once were. Dentures also can prevent further misalignments caused by missing teeth.

Multiple missing teeth replacement with dental implants

MULTIPLE TOOTH DENTAL IMPLANTS

If you are missing several teeth, implant-supported bridges can replace them. Dental implants will replace both your lost natural teeth and some of the roots.
IMPLANT SUPPORTED BRIDGE
Advantages of implant-supported bridges over fixed bridges or removable partial dentures:

         Implant supported bridge                          Fixed bridges or removable partial dentures

1) Replace teeth without support from                 1) Replace teeth depending on support             from adjacent natural teeth.                                 from adjacent teeth.
2) These will replace some of your tooth              2) The bone that previously surrounded           roots, your bone is better preserved.                    the tooth root may begin to resorb.               Dental implants integrate with your jaw                                                                                     bone, helping to keep the bone healthy                                                                                     and intact.
3) In long term, these are esthetic, functional      3) In long term, gums and bone can recede      and comfortable.                                                  around a fixed bridge or removable                                                                                           partial denture, leaving a visible defect.
                                                                                          Resorbed bone beneath these can lead                                                                                   to a unattractive smile.
IMPLANT SUPPORTED BRIDGE
                             RPDs can move around in the mouth &                                    reduce the ability to eat certain foods.

REMOVABLE PARTIAL DENTURE

How will the implants be placed --


First, implants, which looks like screws or cylinders, are placed into your jaw. Over the next two to six months, the implants and the bone are allowed to bond together to form anchors. During this time, a temporary teeth replacement option can be worn over the implant sites.
Often, a second step of the procedure is necessary to uncover the implants and attach extensions. These temporary healing caps complete the foundation on which your new teeth will be placed. Your gums will be allowed to heal for a couple of weeks following this procedure.

ABUTMENTS

BRIDGE
Finally, replacement teeth, or bridges, will be created for you by your dentist and attached to small metal posts, called abutments. After a short time, you will experience restored confidence in your smile and your ability to chew and speak.

Every case is different, and some of these steps can be combined when conditions permit. Your dental professional will work with you to determine the best treatment plan.
