If you've ever felt like your smile is too far gone, whether due to missing teeth, decay, gum disease, or years of wear, full mouth rehabilitation from our Grandville, MI, dentist may be exactly what you need. This comprehensive treatment plan is designed for people who need more than a single filling or crown and are ready to reclaim both the look and function of their smile.
Here's how a multi-faceted approach like this transforms through a coordinated series of restorative dental procedures.
Do I Qualify for Full Mouth Rehabilitation?
Full mouth rehabilitation, also known as or restoration, consists of multiple procedures that are all designed to restore teeth in the upper and lower jaws. It has a cosmetic component in that the end result looks naturally beautiful, but it isn't solely a smile makeover. The ultimate goal of full mouth rehabilitation is to help a person comfortably smile, eat, and speak.
It all starts with an oral exam and possible dental X-rays that will allow Dr. Klein to see exactly what needs to be done with regards to your teeth, gums, and jaws. From there, we can create a personalized treatment plan, so you receive the care you truly need for a healthier smile.
You might be a candidate for this process if you:
- Have
- Struggle with badly decayed teeth
- Have many cracked, broken, or worn-down teeth
- Suffer from chronic jaw pain or bite issues
- Avoid smiling because of stained, chipped, or uneven teeth
- Live with removable dentures that slip or irritate your gums
- Have untreated gum disease that's affecting the health of your teeth
What Treatments Might Be Included?
Every treatment plan of this nature is entirely customized. What one patient might need, another may not. For example, two patients pursue full mouth restoration but one primarily has missing teeth and the other has old dental work that needs to be replaced on top of gum disease. It's all decided on a case-by-case basis. Our full mouth rehabilitation dentist will assess your teeth, gums, bite, bone health, and goals.
Treatments chosen may include:
- Replacing missing teeth with single-tooth implants or implant-supported dentures
- Dental crowns for weakened or damaged teeth
- A dental bridge or partial dentures to fill gaps when implants aren't the right option
- Getting a dental filling to repair mild-to-moderate decay
- Porcelain veneers to transform the front-facing appearance of worn or stained teeth
- Professional teeth whitening to lift years of discoloration
- Periodontal therapy, including , for those affected by gum disease
The process may be staged across multiple visits and months, depending on your situation. The goal is to restore full health and function first, then enhance appearance. In other words, we don't want to cover up problems, but instead resolve them at the source.
Why You Should Consider This Type of Care
Over-the-counter whitening kits or one-off repairs won't make a real difference if your mouth has deeper issues. Receiving full mouth rehabilitation from our Grandville, MI, dental office is a total reset, combining restorative and cosmetic care to give you a strong foundation and a natural-looking, lasting smile. It's a long-term investment in your health, your confidence, and your quality of life.
