Some dental issues are more complex than others. A full mouth reconstruction is meant to help address particularly severe problems. Some common reasons to undergo the reconstruction process include advanced gum disease, multiple missing teeth, and extensive decay. Even if these issues have been present in your mouth for a very long time, a full mouth reconstruction could still be a viable solution.

There are several benefits to having a full mouth reconstruction performed, such as having a stronger bite. It can also be good for your mental well-being, as you’re likely to feel better about yourself when you no longer have any oral health issues to make you feel self-conscious.

That’s why we’ve gathered a list of some of our most commonly asked questions about full mouth reconstruction from our patients in Staten Island. Read on to learn more or give us a call if you don’t see the information you’re looking for!

Does Getting a Full Mouth Reconstruction Hurt?

Our team will do everything we can to make your procedure as pain-free as possible. When it comes to more complex treatments, such as dental implants, we’ll be able to administer a local anesthetic to completely numb the area we’ll be working on. Furthermore, we can also provide you with sedation dentistry so you can feel entirely relaxed and comfortable throughout the process.

After your procedure, you might feel some discomfort and soreness once the numbing effect has worn off. This is completely normal and can easily be managed by following our aftercare guidelines. These typically involve avoiding hot beverages, eating softer foods, getting plenty of rest for better recovery, and taking over-the-counter/prescribed pain relievers to minimize pain.

How Long Does a Full Mouth Reconstruction Procedure Take?

The length of the process will depend on various factors, which can include the complexity of your situation as well as the type of service you require to improve your smile. For instance, fixing a tooth with tooth-colored fillings will take significantly less time to complete compared to the months involved in getting dental implants. A full mouth reconstruction can also involve multiple treatments at once or performed consecutively, which can affect the timeframe based on the specific services at work.

How Do I Care for My Smile After Full Mouth Reconstruction?

Once you’ve completed your full mouth reconstruction, taking care of your renewed smile will be crucial for preserving your results. To maintain your restored pearly whites, you’ll want to practice the following tips:

  • Keep a strict at-home oral hygiene routine, which should include brushing twice daily, flossing once a day (or after meals), and rinsing with mouthwash frequently.
  • Avoid poor oral habits like teeth grinding/clenching, chewing ice, and using teeth as tools.
  • Visit your dentist every six months for checkups and cleanings, which can help you prevent oral health problems in the future.

Will People Be Able to Tell That I Had a Full Mouth Reconstruction?

A full mouth reconstruction involves the use of advanced technology and techniques, so your results should appear as natural-looking as possible. Not only will you regain a complete and healthy smile, but the materials used will also help your teeth feel incredibly lifelike. That said, the noticeability of your results will depend on the kind of changes you’re looking for. For example, fixing a few decayed teeth and improving their shade may be more subtle compared to getting veneers on every tooth for a dramatic transformation. Be sure to discuss your desired results with your dentist so that they know exactly how to tailor your procedure.
