Best Candidates
Full-mouth reconstruction from our surgical team may be ideal if you have severely damaged teeth that need to be extracted and replaced, missing teeth, bone loss, or jaw problems that require corrective surgery. Certain congenital or developmental dental disorders may also be addressed with a full-mouth approach to care. In more advanced cases, your tooth or bone loss might have caused sunken cheeks or other visible changes in facial structure. A full-mouth reconstruction can rejuvenate the entire face when the correct quantity of teeth are in place, which allows for more efficient chewing, biting, and speech capabilities.
What To Expect
Our team will conduct a thorough examination of your teeth, gums, and bite utilizing the latest in diagnostic technology. Through advanced cone beam scans and digital imaging, we can gain a detailed perspective to analyze your treatment needs and plan for the procedures that can deliver the best possible outcomes. Your personalized treatment program will be created, depending on the state of your own teeth, gums, facial muscles, and bite. Following your exam, we will go over your treatment options and sedation choices and help you determine the full-mouth plan that fits your desires and goals. Once your treatment plan is created, our surgical team will let you know what to expect during your full-mouth reconstruction and schedule your procedures accordingly. Full-mouth reconstruction may require several visits to Capital District Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeons so that your treatment can be completed in stages. We will plan your procedures with time in between to allow your mouth to heal until the next step is taken.
Capital District Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeons Reviews
Everyone at the office was friendly, kind and instantly made me feel safe/not worried about the procedure. I was able to make an appointment with ease in a very timely fashion. My issue was treated in less than 24 hours. I highly recommend this practice! Every part of my experience was wonderful
Yesterday I visited the office for the final procedure of my implant, "journey." I arrived early, took a seat in the waiting area and my name was called almost immediately. I was escorted to the procedure room by a bright, cheerful nurse, who explained what would be happening this visit. I mentioned that I am an anxious person and I was calmed by their understanding of my anxiety, Their confidence assured me that this procedure would get done, that day. As a person who has struggled with anxiety and suffered from crippling panic attacks for decades, it was significant to feel that confidence from them. I had a very real concern that I would have a panic attack which would prevent the completion of the procedure that visit. As I reclined in the procedure room a second nurse, just as warm and upbeat as the first, entered the room, as well as the Doctor, and the procedure commenced. I can only estimate, heaven knows I'm no oral surgeon, that roughly 90% through the procedure, I felt my anxiety take hold and take over my body. Panic attacks are pretty paralyzing by nature and mine happen to be extremely physical. First I feel light headed, then all color leaves my face, then I break out in a full body sweat, followed by visible chills. The instant the color left my face, the doctor and nurses took action. The procedure was stopped. I was feeling helpless, scared, embarrassed, and guilty that I was taking time from these individuals and waiting patients. Then the swift, expert caregiving began. An ice pack was applied to the back of my neck, then another was applied to my forehead. (it's worth mentioning, an ice pack without a hand to hold it rarely stays. So I was single handedly monopolizing one nurse, who was kind enough to hold the ice pack against my head) I was given constant compassionate reassurance by the nurses and doctor that everything was alright. I was gently instructed to breathe slowly through my nose. My condition was not improving significantly, so a nurse handed me a cup of apple juice and encouraged me to sip. Slowly I sat up and not long after I felt my physically symptomatic panic take over, again. I gave only the slightest indication I was going down-hill and one of the two nurses reclined the chair I was in again. An I.V. was quickly and skillfully placed and fluids were administered. At this point I had two ice packs (one nurses' hand), oxygen and an I.V. A precarious position to be in for an individual deep into a panic attack. Some time passed and I was soothed by the cool collected casual conversation of the two attending nurses. The doctor said that he only had one quick thing to do before my procedure was completed, and I was happy to get that quick step over and done right then. The doctor took maybe 30 seconds to complete that last step and then that was done. Unfortunately, my anxiety was not. There was nothing more that could be done for my body to improve my condition. I needed something that cannot be packaged or sterilized, something that brings comfort to the soul... and that something was being in the presence of two of the most warm, caring, down to earth, hilarious, professional women I've ever had the pleasure of almost losing consciousness around. Brittany and Kaylee were a dream. Their lighthearted conversation distracted my anxious brain and their attentiveness to my condition made me feel safe. At no point did I feel rushed or that I was an inconvenience of any kind, something that, sadly, is incredibly rare in a medical practice. These two women are incredible, compassionate caregivers. They are a joy to be around. True treasures. I cannot possibly express my gratitude for the care and reassurance that I received from Brittany and Kaylee, but I thought I'd do my best to try.
Absolutely 100% ! A plus. 4.0. On every level. Dr. Diego Miron and associate professionals and complete Staff! And a big thank you for my Dentist Dr Walsh #1 for the referral!
The entire experience was excellent, all staff and Dr Delgado were the most professional I've ever met. They are the best!
Very friendly staff. Strongly recommended 👍👍👍

Recovery
After each procedure in your full-mouth reconstruction treatment program, you can count on our clinical staff describing what to expect and how to care for your mouth. Prescription antibiotics or pain medicine may be prescribed by our surgeons, depending on your needs, and should be taken as directed. You may feel some discomfort or swelling following certain procedures, such as implant placement or tooth extractions. Eating a soft food diet may be most appropriate for you during the healing phases of your care. Once your full-mouth reconstruction is complete, it is essential to keep up with your oral health with good flossing and brushing at home and schedule routine cleanings and exams with your general dentist. You will also be referred back to your dentist to complete any necessary bridge, denture, crown, or other restorative procedures.
Insurance Coverage
During your initial consultation, our clinical staff will create your personalized treatment plan according to your goals, needs, and budget. We will also contact your insurance company to learn about your benefits coverage and if you will incur any personal costs. At that time, we can talk with you about flexible payment options to help make certain your full-mouth reconstruction is even more affordable.
