Do you have several damaged or decayed teeth? Are you struggling with so many dental flaws that you don\u2019t even know where to start? When there are a variety of dental issues to correct, it might not be possible to get the results you\u2019re looking for with a single treatment. Fortunately, you can still get a healthier, more beautiful smile with a full mouth reconstruction in Odessa<\/a>! These personalized treatment plans offer a streamlined way to get all the care you need as quickly and efficiently as possible. Since every patient\u2019s treatment plan will look different, you may not know exactly what to expect while recovering from your various procedures. Read on to learn more about what it\u2019s like to heal after some of the most common treatments used for full mouth reconstruction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Dental Fillings & Cosmetic Bonding<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Tooth-colored composite resin is one of the quickest and easiest ways to repair minor dental damage. This is what\u2019s used for tooth-colored fillings for cavities, as well as what we use to fix small chips or cracks in the teeth. In nearly all cases, these treatments can be completed in one simple appointment. You may feel some slight sensitivity for a day or so, but that should be mild and short-lived.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dental Crowns & Bridges<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Custom restorations like dental crowns and bridges take a bit more time and effort. You\u2019ll likely need to come in for two appointments. At the first, we\u2019ll prepare your tooth or teeth for the restoration by removing a thin layer of enamel, taking impressions, and placing a temporary crown or bridge. Then, a few weeks later, this will be replaced by your permanent, custom-made restoration. You may experience some dental sensitivity after each appointment, but it should be easy to manage at home and fade within a few days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Root Canal Therapy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If a tooth is infected or largely decayed, root canal therapy may be necessary. This allows us to remove all the damaged tissue from within while preserving the outside structure of the tooth! While root canals have a horrible reputation founded by rumors, they are actually far more comfortable and faster than ever before! Root canal therapy has a quicker and easier recovery time than tooth extractions, but you can expect to experience some mild swelling and discomfort for a few days following.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tooth Extractions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If there is no other way to save a tooth, we may need to extract it. Afterwards, you\u2019ll need to take special precautions to ensure the site heals properly. In most cases, patients are able to go back to their normal daily schedules after three to five days. To combat symptoms, follow your dentist\u2019s instructions and take any over-the-counter or prescribed pain medication as directed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before you begin any treatment, your dentist will review what you can expect afterwards. If you ever have any questions or concerns about how your smile is healing, don\u2019t hesitate to give them a call!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
