The Process of Getting a Full Mouth Reconstruction
The full mouth reconstruction process begins with an in-depth consultation and plenty of one-on-one time with Dr. Howard. During this appointment, he will ask you about your smile goals, examine your mouth, and draw up a treatment plan that can include two or more cosmetic, restorative, implant, or periodontal services. We can utilize our intraoral camera to allow you to see your oral concerns up-close to help you judge what treatments you want to prioritize.

Full Mouth Reconstruction FAQs
Does Getting a Full Mouth Reconstruction Hurt?
At Nelson Y. Howard, D.D.S., our priority in any procedure is to ensure that you feel comfortable. To that end, we use advanced anesthetics to numb areas of your mouth we’re working on. Local anesthetics will deaden the nerves in your teeth and gums, so you feel pressure, but very little discomfort. If you’re still anxious, we also offer sedation dentistry. This will make you feel more relaxed and add another barrier to pain and discomfort. After a procedure like a root canal or dental bridge, there might be some discomfort or soreness in your jaw, but this can be managed with generic pain medications.
Do I Need a Full Mouth Reconstruction?
A full mouth reconstruction combines restorative and cosmetic dentistry treatments to rebuild your smile. If you feel unhappy when you look in the mirror or hide your mouth in social situations, full mouth reconstruction might be an option. However, ultimately, the decision whether to pursue treatment is up to you and your dentist. There’s no doubt that addressing problematic teeth will increase your quality of life, so the main question you should ask yourself is, “Will this make me happier?” There may be a balance you’ll need to find between your budget and your satisfaction, but going forward is an overall positive change!
How Long Does a Full Mouth Reconstruction Procedure Take?
Full mouth restorations are as unique as the patients who receive them. Because no two smiles are the same, it can be difficult to estimate an exact timeframe. There are several factors that must be taken into account when figuring out the length of time you’ll need to commit to treatment. For example, how many procedures will you need in total? Can some treatments be performed at the same time as others? Is there a necessary recovery period between procedures? All of these questions can be answered at your initial consultation with Dr. Howard. So, the best thing to do is schedule your appointment and receive your customized treatment plan.
Will People Be Able to Tell That I Had a Full Mouth Reconstruction?
Your friends, family, and coworkers will all be able to tell that your smile looks fantastic and they will definitely notice the increase in your confidence. However, to the casual observer, there won’t be any signs that you’ve had extensive dental work done. Every restoration we perform is done with highly aesthetic materials that will seamlessly match your smile. However, the more dramatic your procedure, the more noticeable the results will be. Whitening treatments can give your grin a much-needed lift without drawing unwanted attention, but porcelain veneers can completely change the way your smile looks!
