FAQs
How is “full mouth reconstruction” different from a smile makeover?
A makeover is primarily cosmetic; reconstruction restores health, function, and esthetics—often involving implants, bite correction, and comprehensive rehabilitation.
Will I be without teeth during treatment?
No. Provisional (temporary) solutions are arranged so you can speak, chew, and smile throughout the process.
Do I need implants for a reconstruction?
Not always. Plans are individualized and may combine crowns/bridges, veneers, or implant options based on bone health and goals.
How long will results last?
With good hygiene, maintenance, and bite protection when needed, reconstructions can last many years. Nightguards are recommended for clenching/grinding.
