What Is Full Mouth Reconstruction?
Full mouth reconstruction combines aesthetics with restorative dentistry to improve the health, function and appearance of the face and mouth. It is not a single procedure but a coordinated plan spanning several treatment types, carried out by a prosthodontist with three years of training beyond dental school in restoring and replacing teeth.
Benefits of Full Mouth Reconstruction
- Improved chewing and a more comfortable bite
- Protection of teeth from further cracking, wear and damage
- A personalized smile that can look as natural or as refined as you prefer
- Restoration of lip and facial support
- Speech improvement
- Enhanced gum health
- Improved social confidence — no more hiding your smile or avoiding eating out
What Conditions Can Full Mouth Reconstruction Correct?
Full mouth reconstruction uses a combination of restorative, implant and cosmetic techniques to address complex issues. Common indications include:
- Multiple missing teeth
- Multiple severely damaged teeth due to dental caries (decay)
- Multiple loose teeth due to periodontal (gum) disease
- Multiple broken, cracked or fractured teeth
- Severely worn teeth from tooth grinding (bruxism) or erosion, often with abnormal changes in the bite
- Jaw, muscle or headache pain caused by bite problems
What Procedures Are Involved?
Every case is unique, so there is no set formula. Definitive restorations may combine dental inlays, onlays, crowns, fixed bridges and implant restorations. The sequence and timeline are established after a full examination rather than assumed at the outset.
What to Expect From Treatment
Reconstruction begins with a comprehensive evaluation of your teeth, gums, bite and jaw joints. Dr. Mosquera then builds a staged plan and reviews it with you, including fees, before treatment begins. Longer appointments can be completed under IV sedation. Where all or most teeth need replacing, Teeth in Just One Day may be the better route.
