When we talk about full mouth reconstruction, there’s a couple of different ways to establish and to provide that service. And so one of those is in someone that over the years has put excessive wear on their teeth, where they have, for example, ground through their enamel, someone that’s a big clincher or a bruxer or a grinder, where they have worn through the enamel on their teeth, their bite has collapsed, their bite has closed down a lot. A full mouth reconstruction will allow for an incredible aesthetics change, a great improvement in smile, great improvement in appearance, also in lip and facial support, primarily in function.
And also being able to rebuild the bite into a situation where they’re able to chew and function much better and they have not worn the teeth out completely. So there’s a lot of advantages to opening the bite back up from a cosmetic standpoint and from a functional standpoint. Another term for full mouth that full mouth reconstruction is used for is with implant dentistry.
And that would refer to all on X type of procedure where we’re replacing all of the teeth on X number of implants, whether that’s the top or the bottom or both the upper and lower arch. And we determine where the implants can go based off of the CT scan. And then we’re able to execute the placement of those implants into the optimal locations.
