Full Mouth Reconstruction

Full Mouth Reconstruction

Full mouth reconstruction is the rebuilding or replacement of damaged or missing teeth. This dental treatment can help patients restore their mouths from extensive damage, pervasive decay, and other comprehensive problems. Correcting such damage can help you enjoy a healthier and happier life.


Full mouth reconstruction is available from Desert Bloom Dentistry in Safford and the surrounding area. There are numerous treatment options to help restore teeth' form and function. Contact us today at (928) 428-1617 to schedule an appointment or learn more about our services.

Candidates for Full Mouth Reconstruction

Patients who have dental problems throughout their entire mouths and require extensive restoration are good candidates for full mouth reconstruction. These problems may result from significant trauma during an accident, decay, wear from grinding, or habit-based damage. Other treatment candidates include people with severe dental conditions from birth, such as amelogenesis, dentinogenesis imperfecta, and ectodermal dysplasia.


Some reconstruction treatments involve surgery, particularly implants or procedures that necessitate bone grafting. This typically requires that the patient is in good overall health. Therefore, a full mouth reconstruction may not be an immediate option for patients with other health issues.

“Patients who have dental problems throughout their entire mouths and require extensive restoration are good candidates for full mouth reconstruction.”

Reasons Someone May Want or Need a Complete Mouth Reconstruction

Various functional and cosmetic conditions may justify a full mouth reconstruction as a treatment. Patients should have a consultation with our team to discuss their options. Some common reasons that people may want or need this procedure include:

  • Aesthetic improvement: It is not uncommon for patients to seek a complete mouth reconstruction for aesthetic reasons. Discoloration, wear, missing teeth, and other issues may not impact function but can have an adverse cosmetic effect. Full reconstruction can help patients improve their self-esteem and enjoy the smiles they have always wanted.
  • Dental decay or disease: Dental decay and other diseases affecting the teeth can also necessitate reconstruction. In most cases, decay alone can be treated with less extensive procedures. However, if left untreated, tooth decay can put teeth at risk of needing replacement.
  • Gum disease: Oral health can play a big role in the necessity for a complete mouth reconstruction. Gum disease can result in losing multiple teeth. This is especially likely if a problem goes unaddressed for too long.
  • Oral trauma: A full mouth reconstruction may be necessary to restore the proper function of the teeth after significant trauma. Extensive cracking, chipping, and damage can require comprehensive treatment. Long-term damage from wear can also cause a person to want or need this treatment.

Full Mouth Reconstruction Treatment Options

The process of a full mouth reconstruction varies from patient to patient, depending on their preferences and needs. Full mouth reconstructions can include almost any dental procedure and combination of treatments. Some of the most common procedures performed during treatment include dental implants, dentures, crowns, inlays, and onlays.


Additionally, a complete mouth reconstruction may involve bone grafting, especially when implants are chosen. Dental deep cleanings are also an option to combat moderate to severe gum disease. People with gaps of missing teeth can choose to receive a dental bridge, while porcelain veneers are an option for people with misaligned or discolored teeth in the front.

Top Mouth and Bottom Mouth Reconstructions

A common alternative to full mouth reconstruction is a partial treatment of just the upper or lower mouth. The treatments for both parts of the mouth are similar. However, according to the Mayo Clinic, the jawbone, which is at the bottom of the mouth, may require bone grafting if it is overly weakened or damaged.


This can also happen with the top of the mouth but is less common. Some reconstruction of the jawbone and gums may be necessary to create a healthy smile even if implants are not used.

Cosmetic Complete Mouth Reconstructions

Not all full-mouth reconstructions are strictly functional. While restoring the mouth can help with speech, comfort, and eating, WebMD states that improving a smile’s appearance can also boost self-esteem. Some procedures that a part of full mouth reconstructions are also considered cosmetic, such as tooth replacements, veneers, gum contouring, orthodontics, whitening, and more.


Many people aspire to have a beautiful smile. While a full mouth reconstruction is not always necessary to achieve this, it can be a good option. Even when functional improvement is necessary, patients can also choose to include some cosmetic treatments to enhance their smiles’ appearance.

Dental Caries

Dental caries are also known as cavities and result from a lack of proper oral hygiene leaving plaque that forms tiny holes in the teeth.


Dental Checkup

A dental checkup is an appointment that involves cleaning the teeth, identifying any signs of infection, and removing said signs of infection at least once every six months in the office.

Dental Sealants
