What is Full Mouth Reconstruction?

A full mouth reconstruction treatment — sometimes called restoration or rehabilitation — is a complex treatment that seeks to restore the function & aesthetic qualities of a patient’s mouth.

It can involve anything from using crowns to restore teeth to replacing multiple missing teeth and reshaping or reconstructing the bone and soft tissue. This process is usually very intensive and typically involves several different procedures that can even require the collaborative work of several specialists. A full mouth reconstruction can become necessary when the mouth structures have formed improperly or become severely damaged. This reconstructive procedure involves a holistic treatment plan that can address problems with oral structures, esthetics, and function relating to the:

Why Should I Choose a Prosthodontist?

A regular dentist is educated in a broad range of oral health subjects and is usually a reliable source of general dental care and maintenance.

However, prosthodontists are highly specialized. They view your mouth from a bigger picture standpoint, going beyond local problems with a mindset of reconstruction to improve overall function and form. With this training, a prosthodontist like Dr. Lesniak is better suited for the extensive nature of full mouth reconstruction.
