Full-mouth reconstruction, full-mouth rehabilitation, and full-mouth restoration are terms often used interchangeably to describe the process of rebuilding or restoring all of the teeth in both the upper and lower jaws simultaneously. Your dentist, who has years of experience working with the materials and procedures related to full-mouth reconstruction, will develop a plan that addresses all your needs and will leave you with a perfect smile, ideal bite, and optimal function.
A full-mouth reconstruction is usually needed to correct adverse issues with the patient’s teeth, whether it be from loss, damage or disease. Because the aim is to solve functional problems, this is classed as restorative dentistry.
While you may also have implants to improve the appearance of your smile, if it’s not related to improving your overall dental health, it’s classed as cosmetic dentistry.
