Major sleep-disordered breathing, such as sleep apnea, can have a devastating impact on oral health. The constant interruption in breathing during sleep causes the airway to collapse, leading to low oxygen levels. This can result in teeth grinding, jaw clenching, and an increased risk of gum disease. These habits can wear down the enamel, cause tooth fractures, and even lead to temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders.
Over time, untreated sleep apnea can also contribute to bone loss in the jaw and tooth misalignment. At Magnolia Ridge Dentistry in Melissa, TX, Dr. Schuster uses comprehensive full mouth rehabilitation treatments to address the damage caused by sleep-disordered breathing. Our customized treatments restore the health and function of your teeth and jaw and improve your overall quality of life by correcting the effects of sleep apnea and restoring proper alignment and comfort.
Dr. Schuster begins with a comprehensive consultation, during which she evaluates your oral health, discusses your goals, and conducts diagnostic tests such as X-rays and scans. This helps her understand the condition of your teeth, gums, bite, and jaw alignment.
The first step in your rehabilitation involves restoring damaged, decayed, or fractured teeth with composite restorations. These tooth-colored materials are carefully applied to match the shape and color of your natural teeth, ensuring a seamless and durable result. Composite restorations rebuild and strengthen the teeth while also improving their appearance.
After rebuilding the structure of your teeth, Dr. Schuster addresses any bite or alignment issues using orthodontics. This step may involve traditional braces or clear aligners Invisalign® to straighten your teeth and align your bite, ensuring better function and aesthetics. Proper alignment also supports the long-term health of your teeth and gums.
Depending on the condition of your teeth, Dr. Schuster may incorporate other restorative procedures such as dental implants, crowns, or bridges to replace missing teeth or further strengthen weakened teeth. These treatments help achieve a fully functional and aesthetically pleasing smile.
Once your teeth are aligned and your bite is corrected, Dr. Schuster will make any final adjustments with composite restorations to enhance the appearance of your smile. These may include shaping teeth, improving contours, or adding finishing touches to ensure a harmonious and confident smile!
Partial rehabilitation is an excellent option if you’ve experienced significant wear on either the front or back of your teeth and only need work done on one side of your mouth. Whether your front teeth are worn down and affecting your smile or your back teeth are making it hard to chew comfortably, Dr. Schuster can focus on restoring the area that needs attention.
This personalized approach allows her to improve your teeth’ function and appearance without a complete overhaul! Partial rehabilitation can help you feel more confident and comfortable by addressing the specific issues that matter most to you.
