Recognized Prosthodontist for Comprehensive Restoration

Our Approach to Full-Mouth Restoration
Dr. Bhave’s goal with full-mouth rehabilitation is to bring your mouth back to a complete and healthy state. When planning a full-mouth rehabilitation, Dr. Bhave first conducts a comprehensive oral exam which includes full diagnostic images (X-rays and photos), a review of your medical and dental history and a thorough inspection of the condition of your teeth and gums. She also checks the function of your jaw joints and signs of any misalignment in your bite.
From all the information obtained, Dr. Bhave formulates a comprehensive treatment plan tailored to your exact needs. Your procedures will depend on your specific circumstances, and can include such things as crowns, bridges, veneers and implant-supported new teeth. It could also include straightening of misaligned teeth and cosmetic gum treatments.
Designing Functional & Aesthetic Elements
As a prosthodontist, Dr, Bhave is a specialist in designing and placing dental restorations that are both functional and aesthetic. She will ensure that your new smile is natural-looking and enhances your features.
Dr. Bhave makes sure that your treatment will result in a properly aligned bite. A correctly aligned bite is essential in a full-mouth rehabilitation, as it ensures there will be no future problems with jaw joint pain and no wear on the teeth due to incorrectly distributed bite forces.
Your full-mouth rehabilitation treatment will also restore your chewing power. In this way you can again eat the foods you want.
Personalize, Comfortable Dental Care
Dr. Bhave is very friendly and pays close attention to what you have to say. She thoroughly explains your treatments beforehand so you know what to expect and can feel relaxed. Our staff will make you feel at home and are always happy to help with any question or request.
We provide blankets and pillows for your added comfort in the dental chair, and we can provide TV or music in your treatment room to help you feel at ease. If you need extra help for heightened anxiety and are medically eligible, Dr. Bhave can provide a sedative pill that has a calming effect.
Benefits of Full-Mouth Restoration
Your quality of life can be significantly improved with good dental health and an attractive smile. Broken-down or missing teeth can limit the foods you can eat, depriving you of the needed nutrition for good overall health. Missing teeth left unreplaced leads to jawbone loss, and misaligned teeth can cause TMJ (jaw joint) pain.
A complete and beautiful smile can also be a confidence-booster in your personal relationships. A full-mouth rehabilitation will give you an attractive smile you will be proud to show.
Understanding Full Mouth Rehabilitation
Full mouth rehabilitation is a comprehensive dental treatment plan designed to restore the function, health, and aesthetics of the entire mouth. This procedure involves multiple treatments, which can include crowns, bridges, veneers, dental implants, and other restorative and cosmetic procedures. The goal is to address complex dental issues and improve the overall oral health and appearance of the patient.
Who Is a Candidate for Full Mouth Rehabilitation?
Candidates for full mouth rehabilitation are typically individuals with multiple dental issues, such as severely worn, damaged, or missing teeth. Those suffering from chronic dental pain, misaligned bites, or advanced periodontal disease may also benefit from this comprehensive approach. Patients seeking a significant cosmetic improvement alongside functional restoration are ideal candidates as well.
What Procedures Are Involved in Full Mouth Rehabilitation?
The specific procedures involved in full mouth rehabilitation vary depending on the patient’s unique oral health needs and goals. Common treatments include:
- Dental Crowns and Bridges
- Veneers
- Dental Implants
- Orthodontic Treatment

How Long Does Full Mouth Rehabilitation Take?
The duration of full mouth rehabilitation depends on the complexity of the individual case and the specific treatments required. It can range from several months to over a year. Each treatment phase is carefully planned to ensure optimal healing and effectiveness, and a customized timeline will be provided after a thorough evaluation by the dental specialist.
What is the Cost of Full Mouth Rehabilitation?
The cost of full mouth rehabilitation varies widely based on the extent of the treatment required and the specific procedures involved. It is essential to discuss the financial aspects with a member of our team, who can provide a detailed estimate and discuss potential payment plans or financing options.
Is Full Mouth Rehabilitation Painful?
Full mouth rehabilitation is performed with patient comfort in mind. Modern dental techniques and anesthesia options ensure that the procedures are as pain-free as possible. Some discomfort may be experienced during recovery, but your dental specialist will provide instructions and medications to manage any pain effectively.
How Do I Maintain My Results After Full Mouth Rehabilitation?
Maintaining the results of full mouth rehabilitation involves good oral hygiene practices and a healthy lifestyle. Brushing twice a day, flossing daily, and avoiding harmful habits like smoking can help preserve the longevity of your restorations. In addition, you should prioritize your regularly scheduled dental checkups, which are important for early detection and treatment of dental issues that could threaten the function and appearance of your new smile. Your dental specialist will provide personalized aftercare instructions as well as long-term maintenance information to keep your smile healthy and beautiful.
What Should I Expect During the Initial Consultation?
During the initial consultation, your dental specialist will conduct a thorough examination of your mouth, take X-rays, and possibly create dental impressions. This comprehensive assessment helps in formulating a customized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs. You will also have the opportunity to discuss your concerns, goals, and expectations for the rehabilitation process.
