The purpose of a full mouth reconstruction plan is to improve the health of the entire mouth, which includes the teeth, gums, and bite. This may involve using a combination of dental services to replace or restore every tooth in the mouth. Full mouth reconstructions aim to enhance the function, beauty, and health of the mouth by combining restorative dentistry with aesthetics.
There are different types of patients who may require a full mouth reconstruction, including those with multiple missing teeth, decayed or broken teeth, or teeth worn down due to teeth grinding or other habits. Some patients may also have conditions like Ectodermal Dysplasia, Amelogenesis, or Dentinogenesis Imperfecta, which require extensive restoration of their teeth.
A full mouth reconstruction involves various dental treatments that affect all teeth in the mouth, such as onlays, crowns, bridges, veneers, dental implants, and/or dentures. These treatments not only improve the appearance of the smile but also enhance the patient’s chewing efficiency. In some cases, other specialties may also be involved to ensure the best possible outcome.
