When one dental treatment is not enough to address your various oral health issues, full mouth rehabilitation may be advised.
Full mouth rehabilitation, also called full mouth reconstruction or restoration, involves general, cosmetic, and restorative dental procedures intended to restore and boost the health and function of your entire mouth, including the jaw joints and muscles.
At Bendigo Smiles, our doctors have the extensive training and knowledge necessary to handle complex full mouth rehabilitation procedures. Your Bendigo dentist will determine which combination of procedures is necessary to address your needs and rebuild your perfect smile.
Who Needs Full Mouth Rehabilitation
If you have multiple dental problems affecting some or all of your teeth as well as the supporting tissue in your mouth, you might be a good candidate for full mouth rehabilitation. You must be generally healthy to receive the local or general anaesthesia needed to undergo any extensive dental surgery procedures involved in the rehabilitation. Full mouth rehabilitation may be recommend for the following situations:
- Several worn down, chipped or broken teeth
- Missing teeth
- Chronic jaw pain or TMJ disorder
