Full Mouth Rehabilitation, & Rejuvenation |
| There are occasions when a patient’s mouth is in a very poor condition. It may be due to neglect, periodontal disease, or even occlusal (bite related) disease. Under these circumstances, treating one are, or even just one arch, will not resolve the problem. That is when a full mouth reconstruction is necessary. For clarification, full mouth reconstruction does not mean surgery. It is a non surgical, comprehensive approach to getting the upper and lower jaws in proper alignment, removing all decay, repairing all chipped, weakened and broken teeth and ultimately, creating a healthy, attractive smile that will last for years. There is no guesswork when providing the patient with such comprehensive treatment. I use sophisticated instrumentation that allows me to precisely calculate where to position your new bite so that it is functional and comfortable. Most importantly proper alignment will resolve many of the neuromuscular signs and symptoms (look under TMJ and neuromuscular). The instrumentation includes joint sonography, which allows me to listen to your joint for noises that are destructive to the TMJ. I also use electromyography to verity that the muscles are in a relaxed state in the new position. I then include jaw tracking to establish the proper path of movement of your jaw. This is very advanced equipment only a handful of dentists in the entire country have ever heard of, let alone know how to use. My training at the Las Vegas Institute has given me the skill to treat you with this cutting edge technology. So what results can you expect? A scientifically determined bite that looks great, feels comfortable and gives you many happy, healthy years of use. If you are experiencing any of the symptoms under TMJ and neuromuscular dentistry or feel you r mouth is in poor condition then a full mouth reconstruction may be the solution. |
