Imagine being able to turn back the clock 20, 30 years or more. Full Mouth Rehabilitation is a comprehensive and complex process that involves restoring the teeth, bite, and muscles back to their natural looking and youthful feeling condition. Look younger - feel better. Today, you do not have to continue to be dissatisfied with the look and feel of your smile. You do not have to continue to experience discomfort when chewing, or be unable to eat hot or cold foods.

Full mouth rehabilitation may be the answer to many of these problems. This practice is reflective of modern dentistry that relies on the most innovative techniques, and of all the things that we can do for people, the process of full mouth rehabilitation has perhaps the most amazing and far reaching benefits. It requires an advanced treatment procedure delivered by a specialist (Prosthodontist) who uses state-of-the- art technology. A goal of treatment is to the rebuild damaged teeth and properly align them. Jaw position is typically corrected using a durable materials like ceramic/metallic caps that fits over the top of the teeth. Teeth can also be restored with veneers or onlays.

Full mouth rehabilitation corrects imperfections in bite position and enhances the appearance of the smile, like wornout, broken,discolored or chipped teeth. Full Mouth Rehabilitation creates a smile that is functional, comfortable and beautiful.. Once determined, the jaw position is corrected with the use of an splint (a virtually invisible appliance that fits over the top of the lower teeth, gently repositioning the jaw).

How ?
The dentist will decide whether to treat with an splint, or to fit the patient with dental restorations. Patients who have their bite repositioned with the use of splint under the dentists care from six weeks to six months. This splint slowly repositions the bite, creating a naturally comfortable position. The gums may be tender for a couple days after restorations are placed on the teeth. To counter the discomfort anti-inflammatory medications, such as ibuprofen, can be used.

After the splint has been worn for several weeks to several months, the jaw naturally drops into its most comfortable position. Only then can the doctor begin to restore the bite. He will use beautiful porcelain restorations that can raise or lower the bite to achieve the most comfortable jaw position. With this correction, patients experience decreased or eliminated pain and discomfort, and better overall health.
