Full Mouth Reconstruction is a common treatment
for patients with TMJ disorders. Dentists with deep understanding of
restorative dentistry coupled with an thorough knowledge of jaw function,
can rebuild all your teeth so that your jaw will begin to function
harmoniously, and you can be relieved of pain.
A part of full mouth reconstruction involves finding
your optimal jaw position. This may seem like a straightforward question,
but, because of the great complexity of the jaw joint and the way we chew,
and the way teeth come together, it requires a great amount of expertise
for a dentist to find that correct position for a particular patient. If
this step is done properly, it
greatly increases the longevity of restorations and natural dentition.
Another part of this process is finding the
correct distance of separation between the upper and lower jaws.
