These procedures are done using a cosmetic and restorative approach, both of which are necessary in order to improve the appearance and overall function of the mouth. When considering a <strong>full mouth reconstruction<\/strong>, it is necessary to get an idea of how long the process may take. This allows for appropriate planning and setting much-needed expectations.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h2>The full mouth reconstruction process<\/h2>\r\n\r\n<p>Below is a quick overview of the <i>full mouth reconstruction<\/i> process, including how long it can take. This information can be helpful to review when looking into different treatment routes.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Average<\/h3>\r\n\r\n<p>While most people considering a full mouth reconstruction want to know an exact timeline, that is not always possible. On average a typical full mouth reconstruction can take anywhere from a couple of weeks to up to a year. Because full mouth reconstructions make up multiple procedures, it is first necessary to understand what procedures are being done. Then, an accurate timeline can be identified.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Procedure-based<\/h3>\r\n\r\n<p>Because there is no one answer as to how long a full mouth reconstruction will take, it is important to consider the procedures. The desired procedures will determine how long the process will take.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>For example, those that require tooth replacement with dental implants should expect the process to be done in 3 separate appointments, lasting anywhere from one to two hours for each. However, the entire process may take up to six months since osseointegration is necessary. In the event that bone grafting is required for dental implant placement, the patient should expect to add another two procedures to the entire process, thus also extending the overall timeline to eight to 12 months.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>On the flip side, if less invasive procedures like veneer or crown placement are needed for the full mouth reconstruction then the timeline may not be as long. For these procedures, patients should expect to undergo two separate dental appointments that last around 90 minutes.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Another popular full mouth reconstruction option is orthodontic treatment, which may last up to a year, depending on the severity of the crowding or crookedness. Orthodontic treatment can help rebuild the structure of the teeth, which does require time and patience.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Deciding what procedures are necessary<\/h3>\r\n\r\n<p>When considering a full mouth reconstruction, it can be difficult to know what procedures to choose. Thankfully, the dentist will help the patient identify what will work best. Things, like goals, needs and overall desires will all be considered. Ultimately, the dentist will recommend procedures that will produce permanent and positive results.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h2>Get started with a full mouth reconstruction<\/h2>\r\n\r\n<p>Looking for more information on the full mouth reconstruction process? To get started, it is best to consult directly with a general dentist. An evaluation can be performed in order to identify the most appropriate course of treatment. Additionally, the patient can ask questions and go over concerns, which can be helpful when considering different options.
