Full Mouth Makeover

Often we will have patients come in very upset by the look of their smile, color of teeth, or many dental issues causing pain.  The main thing that Dr. Rutecki will pick up on is the feelings of frustration from previous dental experiences or hopelessness that nothing can be done.  It is common to have people come in with various treatment plans from "corporate" type dental offices with outragous prices and no explanations.

One of the main things we pride ourselves on is educating you on all of your dental issues and ALL of you treatment options.  It is important for you to know the options, but also the pros and cons of these options.  We will also break down the expectations of treatment as well as the realistic time frame for the treatment.  As Dr. Rutecki routinely says, you did not get this way overnight and it probably will not be fixed overnight.

Whether you need a cosmetic makeover from old discolored fillings or crowns, missing or worn down teeth, crooked teeth, or full mouth extractions needed we can help!  Cosmetics may be fixed by new fillings, crowns, porcelain veneers or Invisalign clear aligners.  Missing teeth can be replaced by implants or bridges.  Full mouth rehab may be accomplished through full arch or full mouth extractions, bone trimming and grafting, implants placed and bridges secured.  Full mouth rehab takes time but we always ensure that you have teeth of some form to smile with during the whole process!  We will also explained the common terms you hear about like All-on-4, All-on-6, teeth in a day, and same-day teeth.

The cause of tooth loss varies on a case-to-case basis. For some, it results from periodontal disease or tooth decay, while others may experience traumatic injuries leading to the loss. Regardless of the reason, it is important to replace the missing structures, as failing to do so can lead to more dental problems. The negative effects of non-replacement may include a shift in remaining teeth, which can also lead to difficulty chewing and biting properly. Moreover, failure to replace missing teeth can also lead to sagging facial appearance, making you look much older than you actually are.
