Reconstructive Dentistry
Reconstructive dentistry means reconstruction of lost or broken teeth, tissues or bones, and jaws. It is more general than cosmetic dentistry and is usually executed using conscious sedation. The main difference between the two is defined by insurance companies who pay for reconstructive surgery of broken teeth but not for laser whitening classified as cosmetic dentistry. The main reason of people who turn to this process is aesthetic in nature but can also be prompted by medical conditions. If a person who cannot eat properly because of some irregularities in his or her teeth, it is more applicable to ask for reconstructive dentistry. Those that suffered injuries from accidents that caused issues affecting regular activities like eating or speaking also try this process. Reconstructive Dentistry
Reconstructive Dentistry
Reconstructive dentistry encompasses building of new teeth using composite materials, putting implants where there are lost teeth, mending or constructing bridges. The need for this kind of dentistry is decided not by just the person who want it but also the dentist. An examination of the mouth, analysis of medical history, and discussion of options is done. The cost of it varies depending on the extent of the reconstruction but is usually very costly. Those who have insurance plans must make sure first that the company will pay for the fee before deciding to avail the treatment. The process begins with consultation, creation of blueprint of the changes that will be done, and the actual reconstruction whatever that must be changed. Post-reconstruction appointments are important to assess the results of the process.
