Overview

Our experienced general dentist, Dr. Patrick B. Toms, offers full-mouth restoration at his practice in Gainesville, GA. For more than 20 years, he has helped many men and women enhance the functionality and aesthetics of their smile (including gums, teeth, and jawbones). Reconstruction of the whole mouth can improve chewing, biting, and speech. It may even alleviate pain caused by misalignments or multiple teeth full of decay.

Full-mouth restoration at Patrick B. Toms, D.M.D. may contain (but isn't limited to) inlays, onlays, bridges, crowns, porcelain veneers, dental implants, and dentures. Certain full-mouth reconstruction procedures may also call for corrective jaw surgery, gum reshaping, or bone graft. Dr. Toms will listen to all of your concerns and needs to make your unique full-mouth reconstruction plan. All you have to do to start the process is call and book yourself an appointment today.

Best Candidates

Full-mouth reconstruction may be needed if you've lost some teeth or have many teeth with large fillings that need replacement. You may also have teeth with widespread decay or teeth that are cracked, broken or badly worn down because of bruxism (persistent teeth grinding). You may have dental ailments or even a hereditary disorder like ectodermal dysplasia (teeth that never develop), amelogenesis imperfecta (abnormally small teeth), or dentinogenesis imperfecta (stained or translucent teeth), which all require extensive treatment. You might choose to replace older crowns, or just want to enhance your mouth for better comfort or health. In more complex cases, your degraded gums and teeth might have caused a visible facial deformity, like sunken cheeks. Full-mouth reconstruction may revive the whole face once the appropriate treatments take place.

What To Expect

Following a complete examination of your gums, teeth, and bite, Dr. Toms might suggest full-mouth reconstruction. Your personalized treatment program will be created depending on the condition of your own teeth, gums, TMJ (temporomandibular) joints, facial muscles, and bite. Dr. Toms will discuss your therapy and sedation options.

As soon as your treatment program is made, he will discuss exactly what to expect in your full-mouth reconstruction and schedule your appointments. In general, a full-mouth reconstruction will require a few visits to Patrick B. Toms, D.M.D. Many of our full-mouth reconstruction patients have a series of treatments performed at one time. Since there are usually many teeth to treat, your full-mouth reconstruction may take place over months as some areas need to heal before the next step can begin.

Recovery

After every treatment in your full-mouth reconstruction treatment program, Dr. Toms will describe what to expect and how to care for your mouth. He can write a prescription for antibiotics or pain medicine that needs to be filled prior to your procedure. You may experience some swelling or discomfort following certain processes, such as implant placement that will make it difficult to eat, so a soft or liquid food diet may be best for you. After your full-mouth reconstruction is complete, you must keep your restored oral health with good flossing and brushing in your home. Yearly dental examinations and twice-yearly cleanings in our office will also be helpful. Throughout your exams, Dr. Toms can track the health of your own restorations, natural gums, teeth, and jaw.

Insurance Coverage

During your initial consultation, Dr. Toms can create your own treatment strategy according to your objectives, needs, and budget. He will provide you various choices to make certain that your full-mouth reconstruction is easy to afford. Patrick B. Toms, D.M.D. takes multiple payments, such as low-interest medical financing. If you've got dental insurance, then we will contact your supplier to confirm your benefits and estimate your personal costs.
