How long does full mouth reconstruction take?

What is Full Mouth Reconstruction?
Full mouth reconstruction involves combining restorative and cosmetic procedures to repair or replace all of a patient's teeth. It is generally a multi-step process involving one or more of the following:
- Inlays & Onlays
- Crowns
- Bridges
- Dental Implants
- Implant-Supported Dentures
- Invisalign
One of our most popular reconstructive procedures is placing full-arch implant-supported dentures. This procedure replaces all teeth on the upper or lower jaw in one efficient step.
Frequently, Dr. Bush can place the implants for the dentures on the same day as extracting the teeth. You may be able to go home with temporary full-arch dentures and never miss a day with a complete smile.
Benefits of Full Mouth Reconstruction
Many patients with damaged teeth feel so self-conscious that they cannot smile or laugh in public. They may have trouble chewing and speaking clearly.
Full mouth reconstruction allows patients to feel pride in their smile. It repairs or replaces compromised teeth, creating a beautifully natural appearance and allowing complete chewing and speaking function.

Frequently Asked Questions About Full Mouth Reconstruction
Does insurance cover full mouth reconstruction?
Insurance may be able to cover the therapeutic procedures included in a full mouth reconstruction. Procedures deemed cosmetic may not receive coverage.
Can I have all my teeth replaced by implants?
Yes, we can easily extract your compromised teeth and create implant-supported dentures that can cover an entire arch of teeth at once. Implant-supported dentures are more efficient and cost-effective than multiple single-tooth implants.
Why is an implant better than a bridge?
Implants have many advantages over conventional bridges. Implants bond with the jaw, providing durability. Patients also experience smooth, well-fitting restorations, where a standard bridge may have irritating metal parts.
How much do implants cost with insurance?
Dental implants may not receive much insurance coverage.
