Circumstances can lead to losing a tooth, leaving behind the desire to replace the tooth with a dental implant or bridge. A full mouth reconstruction addresses the teeth, gums, appearance of the mouth, and the tooth’s health, functionality, and function. During a full-mouth restoration, a highly customized cosmetic dentistry procedure is performed to transform your smile’s appearance significantly.

What is a full mouth reconstruction?
A full mouth reconstruction might be required if you have many broken, worn, and missing teeth. It involves numerous procedures in a patient’s mouth performed by a general and cosmetic dentist to achieve an impeccable appearance and proper function. Typically, this will involve using a variety of veneers, crowns, inlays, onlays, dental implants, and dental bridges to restore every single tooth. The term full mouth reconstruction describes a variety of cosmetic dental procedures compiled in one.

How does a full mouth reconstruction work?
To perform a full mouth reconstruction successfully, thorough planning is essential. Every person has a different requirement for reconstruction, so a planned map is essential to get the perfect smile. The steps are as follows:

• Examination: Examining the jaw joints, muscles, supporting bone, and gums thoroughly is essential. In full mouth reconstruction, we use the latest technology to determine the required procedures. In planning and communicating your treatment needs, digital photography, joint vibration analysis, and TekScan bite analysis can be extremely helpful.

• Computer-Aided Smile Design: Having a full mouth reconstruction that functions perfectly and looks great is a necessity. By using computer-aided smile design technology, your aesthetic outcomes before touching a tooth is discussed.

• 3D Preview: The impression and bite records are used to create a 3D model of the image. The model can be examined not just on the computer but in person. Every angle of aesthetics is available to you, and every angle of functionality is available with the dentist performing the reconstruction. This approach is essential to predictability in full mouth reconstruction.

• Temporaries: Immediately following the preparation of your teeth for your full mouth reconstruction, you will receive temporary prosthetics that are identical to the 3D model. You can try out the proposed full mouth reconstruction before making any final decisions. Using these temporaries, you can fine-tune both their aesthetics and functionality, and any changes you make can be incorporated into the finished restorations.
• Fitting your full mouth reconstruction: The way your dentist has planned it with you! In the final restorations, the master ceramist duplicates (from the temporaries and 3D model) both the design and function of the smile, then add the fine colors, surface anatomy, and textures to create the perfect smile.

How can I figure out if I am a candidate for full mouth reconstruction?
Your front teeth will take up a load of your bite if your bite is not ideal due to missing or broken back teeth. These conditions can result in your front teeth chipping & breaking over time, leading to an unsightly appearance &, in some cases, jaw joint pain. If you feel the requirement of full mouth reconstruction, you can always ask your dentist for guidance. 

Full mouth reconstructions involve treating your teeth, smile, and bite as a whole to have a better bite and look. Full mouth reconstruction improves the bite and protects the teeth. An improved smile is a result. Consult your dentist if you have more questions about the procedure.
