Tired of Hiding Your Smile? The Life-Changing Benefits of Full-Mouth Reconstruction

You might feel self-conscious about your appearance and continually work to hide your smile if tooth decay, gum disease, or a traumatic oral injury has significantly impacted the look and function of your teeth and gums.

Thankfully, a full-mouth reconstruction can provide you with a new smile, making you feel excited and confident to show the world. Full-mouth reconstruction is a customized series of restorative dental treatments that seek to correct any dental issues you’d like fixed. 

At Beaches Dentistry in Jacksonville Beach, Florida, Nodesh Shyamsunder, BDS, Jasleen Raina, DDS, and the rest of our team offer full-mouth reconstruction plans to give you a smile that’s beautiful and functional. 

In this month’s blog, we discuss all the ways a full-mouth reconstruction can benefit you and what procedures you can add to your restorative dentistry plan. 

What does a full-mouth reconstruction include?

As stated above, full-mouth reconstructions are customizable to meet your unique needs. While one person’s plan can include five treatments, another might only need two. Our team may recommend specific treatments, but eventually, it’s up to you. 

Depending on the severity of your dental issues and your oral health needs and goals, your full-mouth reconstruction can include any of the following:

• Bridges and crowns
• Dental implants
• Onlays and inlays
• Dental bonding
• Gum contouring 
• Orthodontic treatments
• Dental veneers
• Teeth whitening 

A full-mouth construction can require several appointments and have an extensive timeline; however, if you’re willing to invest the time, the results are worth it. 

Is a full-mouth reconstruction right for you?

The goal of a full-mouth reconstruction is to restore the functionality of your smile, which differs from a smile makeover. A smile makeover is purely cosmetic and consists solely of elective procedures. 

While a full-mouth reconstruction certainly improves how your smile looks, it’s a by-product of the restorative dental procedures done. 

You might be a good candidate for a full-mouth reconstruction if you have multiple missing teeth, severely worn-down or broken teeth, or head and jaw pain due to jaw misalignment. 

Benefits of undergoing a full-mouth reconstruction 

The procedures included in full-mouth reconstructions pose little risk and offer a wide variety of benefits. You may experience mild discomfort after some procedures, but the long-term advantage outweighs the cons. 

Undergoing a full-mouth reconstruction can restore your oral health, improve your chewing and speech function, and reduce your risk of more severe oral health complications later in life.
