What Is A Full Mouth Reconstruction?
Full mouth reconstruction, or full arch restoration, is a comprehensive dental procedure designed to replace multiple missing teeth and restore the function and aesthetics of your smile.
There are several types of full mouth restorations available, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. The best type of restoration for you will depend on your individual needs, preferences, and oral health condition.
Implant-Supported Dentures
Implant-supported dentures provide the most stable and secure fit by anchoring dentures to dental implants. This is because dental implants are surgically placed into the jawbone and fuse with the bone, creating a strong foundation for the dentures. This not only improves the stability of the dentures but also helps to prevent bone loss, which can occur when teeth are missing.
Fixed Bridge
A bridge is a fixed appliance that replaces missing teeth with artificial crowns attached to adjacent teeth. Bridges are typically used to replace one or more missing teeth in a row. They are a good option for people who want a permanent solution that does not require any removable appliances.
Hybrid Denture
This combines features of fixed and removable dentures, offering a balance of stability and convenience. Hybrid dentures are a good option for people who want a more stable denture than a traditional removable denture, but who do not want a fixed bridge.
Full Denture
A removable appliance that replaces all teeth in a full arch. Full dentures are used to replace all teeth in a full arch. They are a good option for people who have lost all their teeth or have so many missing teeth that a fixed bridge or implant-supported denture is impossible.
The best option for you will depend on your individual needs, preferences, and oral health condition. Our experienced team at Nebraska Oral and Facial Surgery will work with you and build a custom treatment plan that best suits your needs.
Who Needs Full Mouth Rehabilitation
People who have lost multiple teeth due to various reasons may be candidates for full arch restoration. These reasons can include:
- Gum Disease: Chronic inflammation of the gums can lead to bone loss and eventually, tooth loss.
- Tooth Decay: Untreated cavities can progress to severe infections and tooth loss.
- Injury or Trauma: Accidents, sports injuries, or falls can result in tooth loss.
- Dental Neglect: Poor oral hygiene practices can contribute to gum disease and tooth decay.
- Congenital Conditions: Some people are born with missing teeth or dental abnormalities.
- Aging: As we age, our teeth naturally become more susceptible to wear and tear.
The loss of multiple teeth can significantly impact a person’s quality of life in several ways:
- Chewing Difficulties: Missing teeth can make it difficult to chew food properly, leading to nutritional deficiencies and digestive problems.
- Speech Impairment: The absence of teeth can affect speech clarity and pronunciation.
- Self-Esteem Issues: Missing teeth can impact a person’s appearance and self-confidence.
- Oral Health Problems: The remaining teeth may shift or become misaligned, leading to further dental issues.
- Difficulty Eating Certain Foods: Many foods become challenging or impossible to eat with missing teeth.
If you have lost multiple teeth and are experiencing any of these issues, full arch restoration may be a suitable solution for you.
