Read these key highlights related to FMR treatment:

• In this treatment, almost all teeth undergo various dental treatments. Based on the degree of damage, different teeth may require different treatments.
• A patient may have to undergo a combination of treatments. Usually, about 8 to 10 teeth are involved to achieve a complete smile makeover.
• The treatment is either performed simultaneously on both arches or sequentially on each section of the mouth.

Full Mouth Rehabilitation Procedures We Offer

Our partner clinics in Tijuana, Mexico, offer an extensive range of full-mouth rehabilitation procedures. Each of these treatments contributes towards achieving a radiant, natural-looking smile.

Refer to the table for a brief overview of the treatments offered for full mouth rehabilitation:

Dental Procedure	Basic Information
Dental Implants	Dental implants are artificial posts that are surgically placed into your jawbone. They act as a support for artificial teeth.
Dental Crowns	A Dental crown is a tooth-shaped, artificial cap used to cover a natural tooth. Crowns can help treat several issues like damaged, uneven, discolored, or misaligned teeth.
Dental Veneers	Dental veneers are thin, custom-made, tooth-colored shells placed on the front surface of your teeth. Veneers are an excellent solution for minor cosmetic issues like broken or chipped teeth.
Dental Bridges	Dental bridges are used to replace one or multiple missing teeth. Bridges are cemented to implants or your natural teeth surrounding the edentulous space.

Thus, each procedure involves specific steps, and the restoration options may vary depending on the patient’s oral health and case complexity.

Step By Step Guide To Complete Smile Makeover

Learn about the step-by-step patient journey to get a complete smile makeover in Tijuana, Mexico:

Video Consultation 

• Our dental expert will conduct a pre-procedure video consultation.
• Discuss your oral concerns, expectations, goals, and preferences.
• Your previous medical records, ongoing treatments & all relevant information will be analyzed.
• Based on the acquired information, the dental expert will recommend a treatment plan.
• You can plan out your dental trip based on the provided treatment plan.

Dental Examination & Treatment Planning

• On the first visit, the dentist will perform a comprehensive oral examination.
• This may involve taking additional X-rays, CT scans, or other tests if required.
• Based on the examination, the dentist will provide recommended treatment options.
• These treatments usually include implants, crowns, & bridges.

Note: Before installing dental crowns/bridges, some of your natural teeth may require root canal treatment. This removes the decayed tooth structure and the inflamed pulp tissue damaged by bacterial infection. RCT can extend the total treatment time and duration but also incur additional expenses.

Surgical Procedure

Dental Implants

• The number of implants may vary based on your jaw bone density, case complexity, and number of missing teeth.
• The dentist may recommend all on 4, all on 6, or all on 8 dental implants in case all teeth are missing.
• The surgery is performed under local anesthesia.
• Temporary prostheses (implant-supported dentures or bridges) are placed while the implants fuse with bone.

Dental Crowns/Bridges/Veneers

• If you are undergoing implant treatment for some teeth while conservative treatments for others, crowns/bridges are installed after implant surgery
• In case of minor cosmetic issues like broken, discolored, or uneven teeth, filing down and reshaping of natural teeth is required.
• This is usually done to make room for the crowns or veneers.    
• A digital impression of your tooth is taken for the fabrication of veneers or crowns. 
• Based on the 3D scan, a custom restoration is milled using CEREC CAD/CAM technology.

Note: Every case may not be indicated for same-day dental crowns/veneers. Your dentist may decide your treatment eligibility based on the oral examination.

Permanent Prosthesis 

• After getting dental implants, the healing period may last between 3-6 months.
• After successful osseointegration, the dentist will replace the temporary prosthesis with a permanent one.
• Permanent crowns, dentures, or bridges are placed as per the treatment plan.

Follow-Up and Adjustments 

• The follow-up appointment involves assessing your bite and addressing any final adjustments if required. 
• You may also share any concerns or issues related to the permanent crowns, veneers, or bridges. 

Note: The number of visits and duration in full mouth restoration may vary depending on the individual cases, oral concerns, selected procedures, and healing process. Regular dental checkups are recommended to ensure long-lasting results after getting the dental treatments.
