Over time, neglect, periodontal disease or a
poorly aligned bite (malocclusion) can wreak
havoc on the health and appearance of your
smile. It can make you look far older than you
are. Regardless of the cause, the solution is
full mouth rejuvenation.
Full mouth rejuvenation is just that, the
complete revitalization of the smile.
Full mouth rejuvenation addresses the condition
of the entire mouth, from the position of the bite
to the health and appearance of the teeth and
gums. It is a highly specialized procedure
requiring state-of-the-art technology that is so
advanced that there are a limited number of
dentists trained to use it.
The process is entirely comfortable and begins with an evaluation of the bite, the foundation of the smile. Through sonography Dr. Snyder can detect any noises in your jaw. These noises are reflective of destructive motion in your temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and can be the cause of significant pain. With an advanced system called the Myotronics K7, your jaw placement will be measured when the muscles are relaxed, determining the most comfortable position for your bite.
Once jaw position is determined, the health and appearance of gums and teeth will be addressed. Any periodontal disease will be treated, helping the gums to reattach to your teeth. Any decay will be removed. Metal fillings will be replaced with porcelain restorations. Broken, chipped or worn teeth will be repaired. Missing teeth will be replaced. All restorations will be completed to raise or lower your jaw to achieve the most relaxed position.
The result will be a beautiful white smile that is as comfortable and functional as it is attractive. What a rejuvenating experience!
“Every time I ask Dr. Snyder to repair a tooth or maintain my smile,
she enhances it -- and leaves me absolutely delighted with the
result. Over the years, Dr. Snyder has straightened one of my
teeth, repaired chipped teeth and a split tooth with bonding
and veneers. She has also replaced a bridge with one that is so
much more attractive. She’s replaced my old silver fillings with
white ones, and bleached my teeth. My mouth looks better than it ever has...despite my 58 years! This is like a good haircut -- it pays you back everyday, over and over again. This is
‘maintenance’ that makes me feel good.”
