Full Mouth Rehabilitation & Reconstruction
personalized approach to creating the perfect smile.
Why Patients May Need Full Mouth Rehabilitation?
If you have lost several teeth or have significant damage from decay or injury, your dentist may suggest a full mouth rehabilitation. This process involves restoring all the teeth in both the upper and lower jaws and may also address your gums, jaw, and other facial structures.
Full mouth rehabilitation may be necessary for a variety of reasons, including:
Severe tooth decay or damage: Untreated cavities or extensive tooth damage can compromise the health and function of numerous teeth.
Tooth loss: Patients who have lost multiple teeth due to trauma, decay, or periodontal disease may benefit from full mouth rehabilitation.
Teeth grinding (bruxism): Chronic teeth grinding can cause significant wear and tear on the teeth, resulting in the need for full mouth rehabilitation.
Erosion due to acid reflux or diet: These conditions can lead to significant tooth erosion, requiring extensive restoration.
Congenital dental abnormalities: Some people may be born with conditions that affect the formation and strength of teeth.
Leading the way in results driven care.
Dental Services Involved in Full Mouth Reconstruction
Full mouth reconstructions addresses multiple issues that affect a person’s entire smile. Treatments are highly personalised, depending on each patient’s specific dental needs and desired outcomes. Procedures that might be involved include:
- Restorative treatments: These can include dental crowns, bridges, fillings, inlays, onlays, and dental implants to replace or repair damaged or missing teeth.
- Cosmetic treatments: Teeth whitening, dental bonding, composite and porcelain veneers can improve the appearance of your smile.
- Orthodontics: Braces or aligners can correct misaligned teeth or bite issues.
- Periodontal treatments: Deep cleaning procedures like scaling and root planing, as well as more advanced procedures like bone or gum grafts, can address gum disease.
- Root canal therapy: may be necessary for teeth that are severely decayed or infected.
- Tooth extractions: including wisdom teeth removal, or preparatory procedures for dental implants.
Your dentist determines the precise combination of these procedures after a comprehensive examination of your teeth, gums, and jaw. This examination may involve X-rays, impressions, and photographs.

What does a full mouth rehabilitation involve at a dentist?
Full mouth rehabilitation, or full mouth reconstruction, is a customised dental plan that restores the function and appearance of your mouth. It may include treatments for gum disease, crowns, bridges, dental implants, orthodontics, TMJ therapy, and cosmetic enhancements like veneers or whitening.
The process starts with a consultation and a tailored plan to effectively address all oral health issues. This coordinated approach is often more efficient and transformative than addressing issues individually, helping you chew, speak, and smile confidently while promoting long-term well-being.
Who is a candidate for full mouth reconstruction?
A suitable candidate for full mouth reconstruction has multiple dental issues affecting most or all teeth and supporting structures due to trauma, neglect, congenital conditions, or dental diseases. Common reasons for reconstruction include severe tooth decay, advanced gum disease, significant tooth loss, bite problems, dental erosion, and chronic jaw pain. Those with developmental defects or seeking functional and aesthetic improvements can also benefit. The treatment typically involves multiple procedures and requires careful planning, patient commitment, and clear communication with the dental team for effective results.
How long does it take to recover from full mouth reconstruction?
The recovery time for a full mouth reconstruction varies based on the treatments you receive, your health, and how well you heal. Simple procedures like crowns or veneers can allow a return to normal activities in days, while dental implants may take several months for proper integration. Other treatments, such as periodontal surgery, extractions, orthodontics, and TMJ therapy, also have varying timelines and may overlap. In complex cases, complete recovery can take months or even years. Following your dentist’s aftercare instructions and maintaining good oral hygiene will help speed healing and enhance your restored smile.
Can any mouth be restored?
Restorative dentistry can significantly enhance smiles, but results vary by individual. Key factors include the extent of tooth damage, bone loss, existing health conditions, gum health, and the patient’s dedication to ongoing care. Advanced solutions like dental implants and prosthetics can effectively restore function and appearance, even in severe cases.
When planning for treatment, consider costs, timelines, and the lifespan of restorations. A thorough consultation with an experienced dentist is essential for assessing your options, understanding risks, and developing a personalised plan to restore your smile’s health and appearance.
How painful is full mouth reconstruction?
Full mouth reconstruction is a personalised treatment plan that combines various dental procedures to restore your smile’s health, function, and appearance. Most treatments use local anesthesia, with sedation available for added comfort, resulting in minimal pain.
Post-treatment, you may experience discomfort, like swelling or tenderness, especially after procedures like implants or extractions. Recovery times and symptoms can vary, but over-the-counter pain relievers and cold compresses typically help. Communicating with your dentist, who can adjust your care plan and recommend specific pain management strategies for a smoother recovery is essential.
Are full mouth crowns or dental bridges painful?
Full-mouth crowns and dental bridges are effective restorative treatments that improve function and appearance. Due to local anaesthesia, most patients feel little to no pain during the procedure. The process includes preparing the teeth, taking impressions or scans, and often fitting temporary restorations, with only mild pressure or vibration experienced.
After treatment, some sensitivity to hot or cold and mild gum tenderness is normal, but these typically resolve within a few days and can be managed with medication or sensitive toothpaste. Modern techniques minimise discomfort, and open communication with your dentist facilitates quick adjustments for a smooth recovery.
What is edentulous?
Edentulous means having no natural teeth. Complete edentulism occurs when all teeth are missing from both the upper and lower jaws, while partial edentulism means only some teeth are lost. Tooth loss can result from gum disease, decay, injury, or medical treatments like chemotherapy and can happen at any age.
It can lead to issues with chewing, speaking, and changes in facial structure due to jawbone loss. Treatment options include dentures, dental bridges, and implants, which can restore function, improve appearance, and prevent further bone loss. Regular dental check-ups can help reduce the risk of tooth loss.
