Full Mouth Rehabilitation
If several teeth are worn, broken or missing, a consultation can help you understand the priorities. We offer full mouth rehabilitation consultations and provide some of the major dental work a combined plan may involve. After assessing your teeth, gums and bite, we explain the suitable options, staging and any care that needs specialist input. You can also discuss whether a smaller plan would meet your needs. Read more about restorative dentistry in Shellharbour.
We begin by listening to your concerns and examining your mouth. X-rays, photographs or other records may be recommended where needed. We explain the findings, treatment options, benefits and risks before preparing a plan. Ask what the consultation includes and whether further assessment would carry a separate fee.
Ask whether any of the treatments described elsewhere on this site would be relevant: tooth coloured fillings information for decay or damage, crowns and bridges information to cover or replace teeth, dentures information for missing teeth, gum disease treatment information where gums are affected, and orthodontics to move teeth, which orthodontics in Shellharbour describes. Ask about the risks, benefits and costs of each proposed treatment before you decide.
Wear may involve grinding, acid exposure from food or drinks, reflux or other factors. Enamel does not grow back, so understanding the cause matters alongside repairs. Tell us about your symptoms, diet, health and medicines. Our teeth grinding information and porcelain veneers information cover related discussions; treatment may also involve prevention, fillings or crowns.
We explain which treatments are recommended, their order and any healing time between them. Your written plan and quote set out the proposed care and costs so you can consider each stage. Ask about alternatives, including a smaller plan, and seek a second opinion before surgical or invasive treatment. You can pause or decline a proposed treatment.
If teeth are missing, we can compare implants with bridges and dentures. Implant treatment needs suitable bone and a healing period, and factors such as gum disease, smoking and diabetes can affect risk. Our dental implants information explains the assessment and stages.
Follow the cleaning and diet advice for each stage of your plan. If erosion is involved, discuss acidic foods and drinks, reflux and when to brush after acid exposure. Reviews continue while care is in progress. Our dental check-up and clean information explains routine assessment, and we can demonstrate care around temporary or final repairs.
