Full Mouth Restoration Dental Treatment in Mumbai

Full mouth rehabilitation (or full mouth reconstruction) is a dental treatment which includes restoration and/or replacement of all or most of the teeth by means of artificial restorations. It is done in order to restore the debilitated bite. It is a complex inter-disciplinary treatment, which requires advanced planning, designing and execution.

What is the treatment procedure?

The treatment plan is customized according to each patient’s requirements. Overall the treatment is typically divided in several stages. In the initial planning stage, the dentist evaluates the condition of the mouth taking into consideration the patients desires, and cost requirements. A series of impressions are made for study models as well as intraoral photographs are taken to zero in on an ideal treatment plan. A wax up is made to give the patient an approximate estimation of the final treatment outcome.

In the active treatment stage necessary procedures are performed. The patient is maintained on a set of temporary crowns for a period of 4 to 6 weeks so that the patient is used to the new rehabilitated bite. Once the patient has adjusted to the new bite, rest of the procedure is completed with permanent restorations.

In the maintenance phase, patient is recalled for six monthly or annual clean ups and checkups.

Treatment time of full mouth rehabilitation depends on the patient’s clinical condition and may take somewhere from several weeks to months in the most demanding cases.

It is not uncommon that patients who undergo full mouth rehabilitation treatment may require a large number of dental appointments. Full mouth reconstruction treatment is a commitment on the patient’s part in terms of time. However your treatment can be staged in such manner that it minimally interferes with your schedule.

The cost of full mouth rehabilitation can vary considerably depending on the treatment goals, and type and number of restorations. In addition to dental restorations, you may also require other dental procedures such as root canal fillings, extractions, gum surgery and even implantation. These procedures as required, finally determine the cost of the entire treatment. One of the best ways to understand the cost of treatment is to set up a consultation where we can provide you a treatment estimate with the help of diagnostic x rays, digital images and study models.
