What Procedures Are Included in a Full Mouth Restoration?
Posted on March 25, 2020
When San Francisco men and women suffer from severe dental issues or many missing teeth, they often visit our doctors at Skoulas, DDS and Associates for a full mouth restoration. During this process, multiple procedures are performed, which allow our doctors to completely rebuild and replace missing or diseased teeth. Through a full mouth restoration approach, patients are able to regain full oral function with the ability to eat, drink, and smile with confidence.
Procedures that Are Included in a Full Mouth Restoration
Because every patient is different and has different needs, our doctors customize every full mouth restoration treatment plan. There are several different procedures that could potentially make up your treatment, including:
- Dental implants paired with bridges or crowns to restore lost teeth
- Bone grafting to rebuild the jawbone and make it dense enough to hold implants in place
- Veneers to give existing teeth a rejuvenated look
- Teeth extraction to remove any decayed or damaged teeth that are beyond saving
- Teeth whitening to spruce up the appearance of remaining teeth
- Soft tissue grafts to help repair damaged or lost gum tissue
- Invisalign to pull the teeth into a better alignment
- Orthognathic surgery to reposition the jaw into the correct alignment
For most San Francisco patients, our doctors will utilize a combination of these procedures to provide full restoration. By choosing our cosmetic dentists at Skoulas, DDS, and Associates patients enjoy more than functional benefits. With their skill and experience, they are able to provide patients with beautiful smiles they’ll want to show off!
The Full Mouth Restoration Process
Because every full mouth restoration procedure is customized to meet the needs of each individual San Francisco patient, there is no set guideline for what to expect during treatment. However, patients should expect to visit our doctors for several visits in order to get the results they desire.
Before beginning any full mouth restoration, our doctors will first begin by visiting with each patient for a full examination where they will take X-rays, photographs, and impressions as needed. These tools help them better understand the full extent of what is needed on a patient-to-patient basis.
For most full mouth restoration procedures, our doctors will perform major treatments such as surgery and implantations early on in the process to ensure there is adequate healing time prior to working on the aesthetics of the smile. While the full mouth restoration process takes time, San Francisco patients always find their results are well worth the wait!
