Full Mouth Rehabilitation
What is Full Mouth Rehabilitation?
Full Mouth Rehabilitation (also called full mouth reconstruction or full mouth restoration) is a comprehensive dental treatment plan designed to restore or rebuild all the teeth in both the upper and lower jaws. It aims to improve function, aesthetics, comfort, and oral health as a whole.
This treatment often involves multiple disciplines — prosthodontics, periodontics, orthodontics, implantology, and oral surgery — depending on the condition of your teeth, gums, jaw joints, and bite. The goal is not just to make teeth look good, but to ensure they work properly for many years.
Who Needs Full Mouth Rehabilitation?
You might be a candidate for full mouth rehabilitation if you have multiple or severe dental issues affecting appearance, chewing, or comfort. Some common signs include:
- Severely worn, cracked, broken, or decayed teeth
- Many missing teeth or extensive gaps
- Loss of vertical dimension (teeth too short, collapsed bite)
- Pain or discomfort from your jaw (TMJ) or problems with chewing
- Malocclusion, misaligned bite, or uneven tooth wear
- Old restorations failing (crowns, bridges, fillings)
What Does Full Mouth Rehabilitation Involve?
The process begins with a detailed assessment and diagnosis — including X‑rays, 3D imaging, bite analysis, jaw joint evaluation, and gum health checks. Once the plan is ready, treatment might include:
- Restoring or replacing teeth via crowns, bridges or veneers
- Dental implants to replace missing teeth
- Root canal treatments for infected teeth
- Orthodontics (braces or clear aligners) to correct bite and alignment
- Periodontal treatments to ensure healthy gums and bone support
- Increasing vertical dimension (raising the bite) if collapsed
- TMJ (jaw joint) treatments if needed, to relieve discomfort
- Provisional restorations / prototypes to test aesthetics & function before final work
Benefits of Full Mouth Rehabilitation
