A full mouth reconstruction can be performed when most of a patient's teeth are missing or damaged. The process involves rebuilding and restoring all of the patient's teeth on their lower and upper jaw. Full mouth reconstruction is usually performed by general dentists, and the goal is to restore the function and aesthetics of the patient's teeth.
Reasons a person might need full mouth reconstruction include teeth damaged by tooth decay or trauma, fractured or broken teeth, teeth worn down by tooth decay or teeth grinding or missing teeth. A bad bite may also need reconstruction.
The process of full mouth reconstructions starts with a consultation. The oral professional will examine the patient's mouth looking for defects. The dentist will also take a close look at the patient's gums looking for signs of gum disease. The patient will be asked questions about their medical and dental history to determine the treatments they are eligible for. X-rays are taken to examine the patient's teeth roots and jaw.
Here are some of the common treatments dentists administer during full mouth reconstructions:
