Achieve a Beautiful Smile with Full-Arch Replacement Teeth
Dr. Thanos Dounis specializes in full-arch replacement teeth that are securely fixed in your mouth. These teeth won’t slip or irritate your gums, providing the stability you need to chew and enjoy your favorite foods without worry. Additionally, they look completely natural, ensuring that your new smile is both beautiful and functional. In most cases, our skilled doctors can perform the entire procedure in a single day, allowing you to walk out of our office with a brand-new smile.
Understanding the Full Smile Rehabilitation Process
We know that embarking on a smile rehabilitation journey is a significant decision, and we want our patients to feel fully informed and comfortable with the process. Here is a detailed outline of the steps involved in your smile rehabilitation at Synergy Periodontics & Implants in Fredericksburg, VA:
Step 1: New Patient Evaluation
Your journey starts with a thorough evaluation to assess your suitability for full smile rehabilitation. During this appointment, we will discuss your dental history, current oral health status and your goals for treatment. Understanding your unique needs and desires helps us tailor the treatment plan to achieve the best possible outcome for you.
Step 2: Treatment Conference and Diagnostics for Planning (1-2 Appointments)
The next step involves a detailed treatment conference and diagnostic appointments. These sessions are crucial for planning your procedure. We will take various diagnostics, including X-rays, CT scans and impressions of your mouth. This information allows us to create a precise treatment plan that addresses your specific needs.
Step 3: Surgical Procedure and Delivery of “Test Drive Teeth”
On the day of your surgery, Dr. Dounis will perform the procedure to place your new teeth. This involves the surgical placement of dental implants and the immediate attachment of “test drive teeth.” These provisional teeth allow you to leave our office with a complete smile while your permanent teeth are being crafted.
Step 4: Follow-Ups to Ensure Healing and Happiness
After your surgery, we will schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your healing progress and address any concerns. These follow-ups are essential to ensure that your implants are integrating properly and that you are comfortable with your new teeth.
Step 5: Cleaning with Our Hygienist and Customizing Your Maintenance Schedule
Keeping up with excellent oral hygiene is essential for the success of your implants. You will have a cleaning appointment with our hygienist, who will also help you customize a maintenance schedule. Regular cleanings and check-ups are vital to keep your new smile in optimal condition.
Step 6: Digital Impressions and Records to Plan Your Final Teeth
Once your implants have fully integrated, we will take digital impressions and records to plan your final teeth. These digital tools allow for precise crafting of your permanent teeth, ensuring they fit perfectly and look natural.
Step 7: Fit Check of Records and Adjustments
Before your final teeth are made, we will perform a fit check using the records and impressions taken earlier. This step ensures that any necessary adjustments are made for a perfect fit.
Step 8: Try-In of Final Design, Photos, and Videos
You will have the opportunity to try in the final design of your teeth. During this appointment, we will take photos and videos to ensure that your new smile meets your expectations and looks as natural as possible.
Step 9: Delivery of Your Final Teeth
The final step in your smile rehabilitation journey is the delivery of your permanent teeth. Once your new teeth are in place, you will leave our office with a fully restored, beautiful smile that you can be proud of.
