A full mouth reconstruction in Leesburg is a comprehensive treatment plan designed to completely restore a patient’s oral health.
A prosthodontist can help patients with needs both basic and complex to rebuild their smiles.
After thoroughly inspecting a patient’s teeth, jawbone, gums, head and neck using a series of advanced examination techniques and diagnostic technology, a patient’s case is properly evaluated. Patients benefit from the onsite Sirona cone beam scanner, with the help of which Dr. Talwar evaluates the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), soft tissues, and any malocclusions (bite related problems). Dr. Talwar then recommends a treatment plan.
Full mouth reconstruction often requires the collaboration and cooperation of several specialists. Dr. Talwar coordinates the overall treatment and oversees the entire treatment, making sure that each phase is performed to her exact specifications. The patient can feel free to express any concerns or ask any questions throughout the treatment.
When preparing to embark in treatment that involves a full mouth reconstruction or even a partial mouth reconstruction, Dr. Talwar frequently performs a chair side diagnostic composite mockup and morphonalysis, which is an important diagnostic tool. It allows the patient to better appreciate the direction the course of treatment will take and can get an instant vision of the esthetic outcome that he or she can expect. It also offers Dr. Talwar some very valuable information to provide to her master laboratory technician, Mr. Lee. This information will help guide the early rebalancing of the patient’s smile and bite relationship.
A variety of dental procedures may be combined to achieve a full mouth reconstruction, including:
Tooth Extractions – Loose or severely damaged teeth that cannot be salvaged may need to be removed to facilitate improved oral health.
Periodontics and Oral Surgery – The gums are a crucial part of the foundation of the smile. Gum disease must be fully addressed in order to lay the groundwork for successful full mouth reconstruction. This can involve root planing and scaling, antibiotics, therapy, gum grafting, bone grafting and other treatments.
Dental implants – These small titanium posts are surgically inserted within the jaw, replacing missing tooth roots. Dental implants provide the ultimate support for dental restorations, allowing patients to eat and speak with confidence.
Dental Crowns – Following treatment for extensive decay or damage, a crown can provide support to a tooth while restoring balance and a natural appearance to the smile. Also known as a cap, these tooth-shaped restorations cover the remaining structure of the tooth. Patients missing a single tooth can choose to replace it with a dental implant restored with a dental crown.
Zirconia bridges – Special implant-supported zirconia bridges can replace a full arch of teeth. They are made from a polycrystalline ceramic called Zirconia. This material has tremendous strength and has become very popular for it’s durability and natural appearance. They do not wear down natural opposing teeth, nor do they stain or absorb odors like denture acrylics can.
