• The Full Mouth Rehabilitation Proces

  A full mouth rehabilitation process can take several visits, depending on the complexity of your treatment plan. The process typically includes:

  1. Consultation and Comprehensive Exam During your initial consultation, Dr. Jasani will conduct a thorough examination of your teeth, gums, and jaw. This may include digital X-rays, digital scans, and other diagnostic tools to assess your oral health and design an individualized treatment plan. You’ll discuss your goals and concerns, and your dentist will explain the recommended procedures.
  2. Planning and Treatment Design Based on the results of your examination, Dr. Jasani will create a comprehensive treatment plan tailored to your needs. This plan may involve a combination of procedures, such as crowns, implants, veneers, root canals, or orthodontics. The timeline and cost will also be outlined at this stage.
  3. Initial Procedures and Treatments Depending on your treatment plan, procedures may be performed in stages. For example, if you need to address missing teeth, dental implants may be placed first, followed by restorative treatments such as crowns or bridges. If your bite needs to be corrected, orthodontic treatment may be included.
  4. Restoration and Final Touches Once the functional procedures have been completed, cosmetic enhancements such as veneers or teeth whitening may be added to enhance the appearance of your smile. The final restoration phase aims to perfect the aesthetics and ensure that your teeth are aligned, comfortable, and fully functional.
  5. Post-Treatment Care After completing full mouth rehabilitation, regular follow-up visits will be scheduled to ensure everything is healing properly and functioning as expected. Maintaining good oral hygiene and visiting your dentist for regular checkups is essential to preserve the results of your treatment.
