Full Mouth Reconstruction
Hillsboro, OR
 Your mouth has several essential responsibilities that it performs every single day. It allows you to eat and communicate through speech. Your mouth gives you the ability to smile confidently. There are several components that work together to allow you to do these tasks, including your teeth, your gums, and your jaw. There are also several issues that can affect the functions of your mouth, its health and its appearance. These issues range from cavities and gum disease to serious oral trauma. At Century Dental, we can help to restore your mouth with full mouth rehabilitation.

Am I a Candidate?
Candidates for a full mouth rehabilitation have experienced issues that are affecting the health, the appearance, and the overall condition of their mouths. Your teeth may have suffered damage. You may be suffering with gum disease, and it has impacted the health of not just your gums, but your teeth and your jawbone as well. You may have faced oral trauma that has left you with a fractured jaw or missing teeth. When you come in for your consultation, we perform a thorough examination of your mouth to determine your exact issues. The exam consists of:
| • |
A visual inspection of your mouth. We take a close look at the condition of your teeth and gums, checking for damage, decay, and infection. We look at your other oral tissues and check the alignment of your jaw.
|
| • |
X-rays. X-ray images allow us to see the hidden areas of your mouth, including the tooth roots and the jawbone. We can detect issues such as fractured tooth roots, abscesses, bone loss, fractures to facial bones, and so much more. |
Once we have determined the exact issues affecting your mouth, we are then able to create a treatment plan that is specific to your situation.
Your Treatment
Your full mouth rehabilitation is specific to you. Typically, however, most full mouth rehabilitations take two to three office visits to complete, no matter what procedures are required. Recovery periods vary based on the procedures we perform. Some procedures have no downtime, while other procedures can take several months to heal from. After your full mouth rehabilitation is complete, we will schedule you for follow up visits, which enable us to monitor your healing and make sure everything is going smoothly.
If the health and appearance of your mouth have been affected by several oral health issues, you may be a candidate for a full mouth rehabilitation. Call Century Dental to schedule your consultation today at (971) 708-1608. |
