The Dental Face Lift - California Reconstructive Dentistry

Dr. Muslin's California practice offers custom treatment planning that now enables patients to acquire degrees of change in certain underlying structural dynamics that cause the common experience of bite collapse and loss of vertical dimension.

Although commonly considered to be the domain of Plastic or Maxillofacial Surgery, reconstructive dentistry treatment plans that recreate the physical relationships accompanying normal bite height, occlusion and optimize the physical and geometric relationships between the maxilla (upper jaw) and mandible (lower jaw) we have as young adults (before the aging process begins) is the foundation of the Dental Face Lift.

Dental Face Lift Dynamics - An Anatomy

Loss of Vertical Dimension (face, bite and smile are collapsing) can be caused by any one or combination of several factors including:

Loss of tooth height due to normal wear and tear on teeth
Loss of tooth height due to accelerated wear and tear caused by certain types of dental treatments
Loss of underying maxillary or mandibular jawbone structure due to disease or problems related to having edentulous jaws
Disturbances in normal TMJ and TMD relationships that accelerate wear and tear on tooth structures and cause deterioration of the TMJoint
Physical Trauma
