The Full Mouth Reconstruction Process
Planning
"Dr. Slaman will listen to your dental health concerns with compassion."
Diagnosis
Dr. Slaman uses the most advanced dental technology in his state-of-the-art Albuquerque, NM, practice to diagnose his patients' dental health issues.
This tool creates sharp 3D images of your mouth and jaw, revealing underlying conditions like bone disease or bone shrinkage caused by missing teeth.
This laser tool detects the earliest signs of tooth decay, before cavity symptoms occur. This means that you can undergo more conservative treatment
Our digital x-ray equipment reveals hidden cavities, cracks, and tooth decay in the mouth with crystal clear detail.
This tool takes sharp digital photos of hard to see teeth. It's excellent for detecting gum disease and cavities.
Common Procedures in a Full Mouth Reconstruction
Since various kinds of dental issues can severely impact the appearance and function of your mouth, you may need some or all of the following restorative dentistry procedures to fully regain your dental health at our Albuquerque, NM, office:
Crowns
Crowns are natural-looking, tooth-shaped restorations custom-designed to fit over damaged or decayed teeth. They can be created and placed during one appointment with CEREC® technology. We can also attach crowns to implants for unbeatable stability.
Dental Bridges
Missing one or two teeth in a row? A bridge fills the empty gap with a full-size restoration surrounded by two lifelike crowns.
Implant-Supported Dentures
When most or all of a patient's teeth are missing, lifelike dentures supported by implants can restore oral function and improve your appearance. By using implants, we ensure the dentures won't shift or fall out of place.
Periodontal Therapy
Periodontal therapy like below-the-gums deep cleaning can treat gum disease by removing bacteria, plaque, and tartar. Infected tissue can be gently removed using our WaterLase™ laser.
Dental Implants
The implant procedure involves the surgical placement of replacement tooth roots into your jawbone. The titanium devices fuse permanently to the surrounding bone tissue. After a healing period, tooth restorations will be attached to your implants to completely replace damaged or missing teeth.
Nervous about Treatment? We Make Treatment Comfortable
The Wand
Dental shots can be painful and intimidating for many patients. Our Albuquerque office uses The Wand® anesthetic system, which is virtually pain-free and looks like a small pen, as opposed to a frightening syringe. This revolutionary system allows Dr. Slaman to only numb the treatment area as opposed to your entire mouth.
Oral Conscious
For patients who are very anxious about their treatment, we offer oral conscious sedation. This method involves taking a pill before your procedure to ensure you are as relaxed as possible once you arrive for your appointment. Patients achieve a comfortable state of near-sleep and have little to no recollection of their procedure.

For patients looking to enhance their appearance in addition to restoring their oral health, we can include cosmetic dentistry in your treatment plan. Cosmetic dentistry can give your newly restored smile that extra touch of sparkle:
Teeth Whitening
We offer in-office whitening treatments like ZOOM!® and take-home whitening trays to dramatically lighten tooth stains.
Porcelain Veneers
Veneers are thin but strong customized shells that fit over the front of visible teeth, covering dental flaws and stains.
Dental Bonding
This tooth-colored resin is applied to your teeth in order to hide cosmetic flaws. Dental bonding can quickly restore the look of your tooth without costly procedures.
Gum Contouring
If your gums cover up some of your tooth surfaces, it can make your smile look uneven. This procedure uses a laser to gently reshape your gum line.
