Dr. Nishino is well-trained and experienced in restoring oral health and appearance through comprehensive dental services. During your evaluation, he can help you decide if full-mouth reconstruction is the right approach for your needs. Patients who have dental restorations that are aging or breaking down, extensive damage to teeth, or even more advanced conditions, like gum recession and bone loss, may be excellent candidates for a full-mouth reconstruction. We often use this type of whole-mouth approach to help patients with multiple needs to overcome conditions, like:

• Bone loss or missing teeth

• Gum disease or gum recession

• Genetic dental abnormalities

• Small, underdeveloped, or misshapen teeth

• Translucent or mottled tooth enamel

During your full-mouth reconstruction consultation visit at our friendly practice, Dr. Nishino will spend time listening to your dental concerns and thoroughly evaluate your oral health condition and needs. Our team will take advanced 3D images to show a 360-degree detailed view of your face, head, neck, and jaw areas. Impressions of your teeth will also be taken so that we can make study models of your mouth to plan the most appropriate procedures to help you take back a comfortable and high-quality smile. Dr. Nishino will also examine your gums, jaw joints, and facial profile to help determine the most aesthetic and functional results for your full-mouth reconstruction care.

At Made Ya Smile Dental, our focus is always on your comfort, safety, and delivering the best possible results for your smile and dental health. When all of our diagnostic information is collected, Dr. Nishino will discuss your treatment options and present his recommendations on how to accomplish your desired clinical outcomes. To make sure your care is complete, he may partner with other dental specialists for certain aspects of your full-mouth reconstruction process. Your overall treatment may take place in phases over a few weeks or months based on your unique needs. As your partner in better dental health, we will be there throughout the process to answer any questions, address any concerns, and guide you to your end results.

Dr. Nishino has advanced expertise and training in creating healthy, functional, natural-looking smiles through a minimally invasive approach. To complete your unique full-mouth reconstruction plan, he may recommend one or more of the following treatments:

• Crowns, fillings, inlays, or onlays to restore damaged teeth

Personalized oral hygiene instructions will also be provided so that you can best care for your smile during the treatment process. In some cases, depending on your treatment, you may have a little swelling or discomfort. Dr. Nishino may recommend over-the-counter pain relievers, cold compresses, and a soft food diet to help manage your comfort during these times.
