Full Mouth Rehabilitation
Full Mouth Rehabilitation
A full mouth rehabilitation is a major step for patients whose smiles have been affected by disease, injury, or cancer. This treatment is fully personalized and is designed to restore the look, function, and health of your smile. Whether you are dealing with old or mismatched dental work, trauma, gum disease, the effects of oral cancer, or a condition you were born with, our prosthodontists are trained to handle these challenges.
We often work with other specialists to create a complete plan that supports every part of your oral health. We also understand that dental rehabilitation affects more than your teeth. It can influence your confidence, comfort, and well-being. During your consultation, we take time to learn your goals and design a plan that fits your needs. Our goal is to help you regain a healthy, confident smile that improves your quality of life.
