Full mouth reconstruction is a complicated procedure. And I’m a little bit biased, but I’m gonna tell you that you should see a prosthodontist for a full mouth reconstruction. Now, why is that? Prosthodontists have three years of additional training to be able to deal with complex and interdisciplinary comprehensive care.
So, full mouth reconstruction, it’s like building a house. You’ve gotta have the foundations that are sound. Our foundations are made sound by our specialists, our periodontists to make sure that the gums are healthy, and then we build on top of that. We make teeth or veneers or crowns or whatever we need to to be able to reestablish the patient’s bite, the cosmetics, the function, and what have you.
Now, full mouth reconstruction has to be done in a predictable manner. I go back to beginning with the end in mind. So the first thing we do is we visualize the end result. We make sure that the teeth will fit in the patient’s face. We give the patient a preview. We give the patient a mock-up. And the patient stays in what we call cosmetic prototypes, or patients may know it as cosmetic temporary teeth.
When we put these cosmetic temporary teeth in the patient’s mouth, most patients think that these are the final teeth because they look so amazing. Now, the reason we use cosmetic temporary teeth, when we’re reconstructing the whole mouth, it’s not just about a static band.
We need to know how the patient functions, how their jaw moves. So we put them in these cosmetic temporary teeth so that they can go away, they can chew, they can bite, they can go through their normal functional processes. You know, their friends may say to them or their significant other may say, “Hey, the teeth need to be a little bit longer.” We can make cosmetic changes. Those cosmetic temporary teeth give us a lot of information, right? So then we can go to the final teeth predictably.
Now, what if we didn’t do that? Imagine we just, you know, prepared the teeth and we put the final teeth in two weeks. What happens if a firm tooth breaks? Why does that firm tooth break? It breaks because we didn’t know about the function of the patient. We didn’t go through that phase. We went through cosmetic temporary teeth to idealize the patient’s bite, to idealize the aesthetics, the cosmetics of the teeth.
So full mouth reconstruction, it is a complex procedure, but we make it very simple by breaking it into phases so that we can provide patients with a predictable, not just an aesthetic but a functional result.

Problem
Patient Jim M presented to our office with teeth that were breaking down. He was looking for a solution to improve the cosmetics, improve his bite and improve his chewing capacity. He had been to many dental offices all of whom had told him that he should wear removable dentures. The unfortunate news for Jim was that all of his teeth needed to be removed. Jim was treated with the All on 4 plus smile solution, whereby teeth were removed and implants placed the same day. Fixed permanent teeth were also provided the same day. Today Jim is enjoying fixed permanent teeth is able to eat what he wants and smiles from ear to ear. All his friends tell him he looks much younger and happier and smiles a lot more.
Solution
We were able to transition Jim’s failing, collapsed and decaying dentition. We placed implants with attached provisional teeth, which made an immediate impact. The implants were allowed to heal and integrate into Jim’s jawbone and become part of his body.
After healing was complete we placed Jim’s final zirconia restorations. These restorations are made from a material that is just stained, not layered with a lot of ceramic. It is very strong, very attractive, and with new techniques we can get some beautiful natural-looking translucency. This material also is less likely to have chipping, which used to be a problem with traditional ceramic restorations.

Solution
Soledad looks years younger, not just because of the way her teeth look, but also because her skin looks years younger.
We restored her smile with our All-On-4 dental implants treatment. We provided fixed provisional restorations maintained during his treatment, which looked great and functioned beautifully all the way through treatment.
Soledad’s new smile is an outstanding bright, white outcome made from the latest technology zirconia teeth. These are particularly strong teeth made from monolithic zirconia. This type of zirconia has no additional layering of ceramic over the top, making it very strong.

Her jaws moved into very unusual positions, causing provisional restorations to fracture, as well as causing much jaw pain. This complication required the expertise of a prosthodontist. The years of training in the management of bite and jaw joint dysfunction enabled Dr. Jivraj to find the perfect occlusal scheme to stabilize the unusual jaw movements and to relieve all of the jaw pain that Bonnie had been experiencing for many years.

Many options were available to her including bonding and orthodontics(Braces), the patient did not want to go through braces so minimally invasive veneers were discussed. These veneers are done beginning with the end in mind so that minimal amount of tooth structure is removed.
As well as the veneers we needed to do a minor gum lift to improve the proportion of her teeth.”
To give the patient a predictable result we make impressions or scans of her mouth and build the teeth in wax, This wax model is used to build cosmetic prototypes which the patient can see so that the end result is not a surprise.
Here what you see is the wax build up where we work on the shape, and length of the teeth and then convert that into prototypes directly in the patient’s mouth . You can see from the original teeth to the anticipated position of the final teeth that we don’t have to reduce the tooth and are minimally invasive.
These are the cosmetic prototypes to give the patient an idea of the smile.
These are the final porcelain veneers, which are color match strong and durable. This improves the patients smile in a very minimally invasive way. Ceramics done by Aram Torosian.

Steven Welch
My teeth were bad, confidence was at a low. I really thought I was gonna be 41 with false teeth. Dr. Jivraj is a perfectionist, top notch, and he expects nothing less from his team. Point blank, he’s the best. He laid out a plan. He said, “In 6-8 months I’ll have you crunching on an apple.” I had no doubt that he meant every word. He exuded confidence and made me feel completely comfortable. Next was the daunting matter of paying for it. But his wonderful financing department also came up with a plan that was affordable for me, and got me interest free financing for up to 2 years. Not once throughout this process was I made to feel uncomfortable or embarrassed, and they treated me like family. They were very welcoming and personable, and created a warm, relaxing environment. I have and will continue to recommend Anacapa Dental and Dr. Jivraj to anyone and everyone who is in need of the type of miracles that they perform. A big thanks from me and my girlfriend. My entire family is so grateful. Dr. Jivraj will be my dentist until he retires. Happy holidays to everyone, and look out for them Christmas cookies.

Would give 10 stars if I could.

This office is the best of the best! From the front desk staff, to Darlene the dental hygienist, to Dr. Jivraj. Everyone is kind and knowledgeable! The office itself is so beautiful, without the typical “dental office” look— perfect for anyone with a fear of going to the dentist. They will make you feel at home and bring you the best care!

Anacapa Dental Art Institute is an excellent dental group. I have been going there for over three years. The staff is friendly and professional. I just returned from my dental cleaning. It was like visiting a friend. Darlene Herrera was my dental hygienist. She was friendly and caring. No pain and no apprehension! You were in the chair and before you know it you were out.

My experience with Dr. Jivraj and his entire team was wonderful in all regards. Professionalism, skill, personal care, and execution are the words that come to my mind when I think of the service that I received from them. My veneers came out absolutely beautifully. Dr. Jivraj gave me all the personal attention and expertise needed, his staff is highly skilled and personable at the same time, and I would recommend their services to anyone. In fact, I just recently recommended my mother to them, which I consider to be the highest praise possible. Thank you to the whole team!

Was such a great dentist visit. I was very nervous to get 4 fillings but dr. Patel and Grace made it such a nice and comfortable environment! And Maria helped me schedule my next appointment for the coming months with ease! Highly recommend this place for anyone who has doubts or fears of going to the dentist.

Dr. Jivraj saved my smile, and he has also always cared about, & been interested about all the things that make me smile. He rebuilt my entire mouth due to damage from long term steroids and autoimmune disease. All of my health issues make me a difficult case, but Dr. Jivraj has ALWAYS worked with me to provide the best experience. I receive compliments from strangers all the time about my smile. He is a perfectionist about his work, and he will not say it’s finished until both of us are pleased with the result. I always look forward to the compassionate care provided by his office staff, who make the time go by so quickly. I wish there were 10 stars to give because he’s that talented! Thank you Dr J for all of my future smiles! You’re the best!
