Smile reconstruction, sometimes known as full mouth reconstruction or complete dental restoration, can help you restore the entire smile with a series of back-to-back treatments. An imperfect smile with crooked, spaced, broken, or lost teeth can be renewed and transformed with this “smile makeover!” Dr. Neal Edwards of Riverside, California, is here to help you achieve your dream smile and will often talk to you about the many treatments that may be integrated into your full mouth reconstruction treatment plan. There are several restorative services that Dr. Neal Edwards and his team may recommend as part of your full mouth reconstruction plan, which is designed to improve the functionality, look, and overall health of your smile!

• Dental implants. Quality dental implants are a popular choice for restoring missing teeth in a full mouth reconstruction. These posts are made of titanium and placed into the jawbone during oral surgery to act as artificial tooth roots. Once healed, an abutment and dental crown will be placed on top of the implant to provide a natural-looking replacement tooth.
• Crowns and bridges.  Dental crowns and bridges are utilized to restore damaged or missing teeth. A crown is described as a tooth-shaped cap that covers a damaged natural tooth, while a bridge is used to fill in any gaps caused by missing teeth. Both options not only improve the appearance of your smile but also help maintain proper bite and prevent further damage to surrounding teeth.
• Veneers. For those with minor imperfections such as chips, cracks, or discoloration, veneers may be recommended as part of a full mouth reconstruction plan. These very thin porcelain shells are placed on the front surface of the teeth to create a flawless and natural-looking smile.
• Orthodontic treatments. In some cases, orthodontic treatments such as Invisalign may be recommended as part of a full mouth reconstruction to straighten crooked teeth and improve overall bite and alignment. If you are not a candidate for Invisalign, we can refer you to an orthodontist in the Riverside, California, area to help you get the orthodontic treatment right for your smile!
• Periodontal therapy. If you have gum or “periodontal” disease or other issues with your gums, periodontal therapy may be included in your full mouth reconstruction plan. This can include deep cleanings, gum grafts, or pocket reduction surgery to restore the health of one’s gums and prevent further damage to one’s teeth.
• Tooth extractions. Sometimes, tooth extractions are necessary to make room for other restorative treatments or remove severely damaged or decayed teeth. Dr. Neal Edwards and his team ensure the extraction process is as comfortable as possible.
