Personal Care Renews Your Oral Health
Full-mouth reconstruction combines multiple treatments to rebuild your smile. Dr. Lee creates a personalized plan to restore your oral health and function.
- Crowns or Bridges: These restorations repair and replace damaged or missing teeth while mending breaks, chips, and infection damage.
- Gum Disease Treatment: Dr. Lee offers non-invasive procedures like deep cleanings and laser treatments to address your gum infection.
- Root Canals: A root canal can help you avoid extraction. Dr. Lee may refer you to a specialist.
- Dentures: Replace an entire arch of teeth with customized dentures that remain secure using suction and adhesive.
- Dental Implants: Dr. Lee works with a specialist to place implants, then attaches your new teeth.
- Oral Surgery: Dr. Lee performs certain surgeries such as tooth removal or cosmetic gum surgery based on your needs.
Trust Us With Your Extensive Smile Needs
Dr. Lee recognizes the transformative power a complete reconstruction has for patients with damaged or missing teeth. He will plan your treatment using advanced technology such as digital X-rays, intraoral cameras, and his photography studio. This equipment helps him identify any obvious problems and detect underlying issues that you can’t see with the naked eye.
Depending on his findings, he may recommend one or more of our restorative services. We’ll work together to design a plan that meets your oral health goals.
Frequently Asked Questions About Full-Mouth Reconstruction
What is a full-mouth reconstruction?
A full-mouth reconstruction involves extensive dental repair to replace all or nearly all your damaged and missing teeth. You may have lost your teeth to disease, injury, or another reason. We’ll work hand in hand with you to develop a treatment plan that restores your smile and gives you back a strong bite.
How long does a full-mouth reconstruction take?
Because every full-mouth reconstruction involves different services, there’s no standard time frame. Some procedures, including tooth extractions and dental implant placement, will involve a healing period. Dr. Lee will work with you to select the services best suited to your smile needs and goals, including your schedule and your budget.
Is full-mouth reconstruction painful?
A full-mouth reconstruction may include multiple treatments, including surgical procedures such as tooth extractions, bone grafts, and dental implant placement. No matter which procedures you receive for your dental restoration, we’ll ensure you remain comfortable. We use local anesthesia to numb your mouth prior to treatment, and you can also choose to receive dental sedation.
