The full mouth reconstruction is when the whole mouth is treated to improve function, longevity and aesthetics. This often entails crowns, bridges, or veneers on all teeth (or implants and crowns to replace teeth) so that the teeth are protected and the bite is improved.
The full mouth reconstruction is often reserved for mouths that are sadly broken down, or have had a lot of NHS poorly fitted crowns, fillings etc. over the years with resulting problems.
A full mouth reconstruction, sometimes referred to as a full mouth restoration or rehabilitation, is an extensive dental procedure designed to rebuild or restore all of the teeth in both the upper and lower jaws. This comprehensive approach addresses a wide range of dental problems and aims to improve both function and aesthetics. It is often recommended for patients with significant dental issues such as:

What is the Process for a Full Mouth Reconstruction?
First Visit: Initial Consultation and Assessment
During the initial visit, your dentist will conduct a comprehensive examination to evaluate your oral health. This includes taking X-rays, digital scans, and possibly dental impressions to assess the condition of your teeth, gums, and jaw. You will discuss your dental history, current issues, and aesthetic goals with your dentist. Based on this assessment, a detailed treatment plan will be developed, outlining the necessary procedures for your full mouth reconstruction.
Second Visit: Treatment Planning and Preparation
In the subsequent visit, your dentist will finalize the treatment plan and begin any preparatory work required. This may involve deep cleanings, addressing immediate dental health concerns, or performing extractions if necessary. The treatment plan might include a combination of restorative procedures such as crowns, bridges, implants, or dentures. Preparatory treatments ensure that your oral health is optimized before the main reconstruction procedures begin.
Third Visit: Restorative Procedures
The third visit focuses on the main restorative treatments outlined in your plan. This phase may include placing dental implants, restoring damaged teeth with crowns or bridges, or fitting full or partial dentures. If gum disease is present, it will be treated as part of the restoration process. These procedures are typically performed in stages over multiple visits to allow for proper healing and integration of the restorations.
Fourth Visit: Final Restorations and Adjustments
During this visit, your dentist will place the final restorations, such as crowns, bridges, or dentures, and make any necessary adjustments. They will carefully check the fit, function, and appearance of each restoration to ensure that everything is comfortable and aesthetically pleasing. Final adjustments are made to ensure that your new smile is both functional and visually appealing.
Follow-Up Visits: Ongoing Monitoring and Maintenance
After the full mouth reconstruction is complete, follow-up appointments will be scheduled to monitor the success of the treatment and ensure the health of the restorations. These visits are important for addressing any concerns, making further adjustments if needed, and maintaining overall oral health to ensure the long-term success of your new smile.
