Full mouth reconstruction (also called full mouth rehabilitation) involves restoring or replacing all, or nearly all, of the teeth in your mouth. It draws on the full range of prosthodontic treatment — implants, crowns, bridges and dentures — to rebuild both function and appearance where multiple teeth are affected.
Full mouth reconstruction is usually considered where a patient has multiple, interconnected dental problems rather than one tooth needing treatment. Common reasons include:
- Multiple missing or heavily broken-down teeth
- Widespread tooth wear from grinding (bruxism) or acid erosion
- Long-term bite problems affecting several teeth
- A combination of failing crowns, bridges and fillings needing to be replaced together
A specialist-led, collaborative process. At adelaideCAD, full mouth reconstruction is specialist-led — planned and overseen by our specialist clinicians, working alongside your referring dentist and, where needed, other specialists such as periodontists or oral surgeons. Treatment planning weighs up your dental and medical history, bite function, aesthetics, and what’s realistic for your circumstances — there’s rarely only one way to approach a full mouth case, and part of our role is talking through the options with you and your dentist.
What to expect. Every plan is different, but the process typically starts with a comprehensive assessment — your bite, remaining teeth, gum and bone health — before a staged treatment plan is proposed. We’ll talk you through the sequence, what each stage involves, and answer your questions before treatment starts.
If your dentist has raised full mouth reconstruction as an option, ask them about referring you to adelaideCAD. Already been referred? Call (08) 8212 5294 to arrange your appointment.
