Getting a full mouth reconstruction not only provides esthetic benefits to people but it also offers a number of health benefits as well. It can dramatically change the appearance of your mouth and restore healthy function that was lost to dental decay and other oral problems. Here are some health benefits of getting full mouth reconstructions in Los Angeles.
Treating Periodontal Disease
If you have severe periodontal disease you may be at risk for bone loss of the bones that support your teeth, dental decay, tooth loss, and infections. It can also cause significant blood loss as a result of heavy bleeding from the gums.
While uncommon, persistent blood loss from periodontal disease may increase your risk for anemia, especially when periodontal disease leads to oral hemorrhage. If conservative treatment options such as better oral hygiene and frequent tooth cleanings are ineffective at reversing the damage caused by periodontal disease, then full mouth reconstructions in Los Angeles should be considered.
Correcting Malocclusions
Another way a full mouth reconstruction can enhance your health is by correcting a malocclusion, otherwise known as an abnormal bite. Malocclusions may be caused by overcrowded teeth, certain degenerative bone diseases, genetics, or bruxism, also known as tooth grinding.
Malocclusions may cause problems with chewing and if you do not chew your food properly, the risk for choking rises. Malocclusions can also cause severe headaches, jaw pain, and neck discomfort.
