Things to know about full mouth reconstruction

Full mouth reconstruction is different for each patient and there are a number of different procedures that may be involved. The following is everything to know about full mouth reconstruction, including how the process works, who it is intended for and the various benefits of the procedure.

The process of full mouth reconstruction

The first step towards a full set of replacement teeth through full mouth reconstruction is to visit the dentist for a complete oral examination. During the first visit, the dentist can determine which treatment methods are most appropriate, which may include implants, bridges or dentures. After both the patient and the dentist agree to treatment, time can be scheduled for the first operation.

For less invasive options - such as veneers, dental bonding and dental crowns - surgery is not required, whereas replacing missing teeth entirely through implants requires surgery.
