Full Mouth Rehabilitation
in Calgary
One coordinated plan to restore the health, comfort and appearance of your entire smile.
About Full Mouth Rehabilitation
Full mouth rehabilitation, also called full mouth reconstruction or restoration, is a comprehensive treatment plan that rebuilds or repairs most or all of the teeth in your mouth. Instead of treating problems one at a time, your dentist looks at how your teeth, gums and bite work together, then designs a plan that restores both function and appearance.
If you are looking for full mouth reconstruction in SW Calgary, our team at West 17th Avenue Dental Care offers this comprehensive care as part of our restorative dentistry services. We take the time to understand your concerns and walk you through each step.
Who Is It For?
- People with many worn, broken or decayed teeth.
- People who are missing several teeth or most of their teeth.
- Patients with a bite problem or discomfort linked to worn or damaged teeth.
- Patients whose teeth have been damaged by years of grinding, acid erosion or injury.
- People who have been told they need extensive dental work and want a clear, coordinated plan.
Treatments in a Full Mouth Rehabilitation
No two plans are the same. Your plan may include a combination of:
- Gum Disease Treatment (gum therapy) to create a healthy foundation.
- Crowns and Bridges to rebuild damaged teeth and replace missing ones.
- Dental Implants to replace missing teeth.
- Root Canal Treatment to save teeth that are infected.
- Tooth Extraction where a tooth cannot be saved.
- Bone grafts to rebuild the bone where an implant is planned.
Before Your Treatment Begins
- Tell us about your health history, medications and allergies, and any conditions that affect healing, such as diabetes or smoking.
- Think about your goals. What do you want to be able to do again, and how do you want your smile to look?
- Bring any previous X-rays, records or treatment plans from other dentists.
- Expect a longer first appointment, since the assessment includes X-rays, a bite analysis, study models and photos.
- Plan for multiple visits over several months. Your dentist will give you an estimated schedule at the planning visit.
- If you feel anxious about long appointments, ask about Sedation Dentistry.
Your Treatment Journey
Comprehensive assessment. Your dentist examines your teeth, gums and bite, with X-rays, a bite analysis, study models and photos.
Treatment planning. We put the procedures in a logical order and explain each step, the timeline and the cost. You decide at your own pace.
The restorative phase. We carry out the planned treatments, starting with health and function, such as infection control, extractions, bone grafting and gum therapy, before rebuilding teeth with crowns, bridges or implants.
Stabilization and maintenance. We protect your results with long-term care and monitor your bite over time.
Timelines depend on how much work is needed. Simpler cases can be finished in a few months, while complex cases may take 12 to 18 months or more.
Aftercare and Long-Term Maintenance
- After each visit, follow the aftercare instructions for the procedure you had, such as for an extraction, an implant or a root canal.
- Eat soft foods and avoid hard, sticky or crunchy foods while teeth are being treated, or you are wearing temporary restorations.
- Brush twice a day and clean between your teeth daily, including around crowns, bridges and implants.
- Keep up with regular check-ups, cleanings and the follow-up visits we recommend.
- Wear a custom night guard if your dentist advises one, to protect your new restorations if you grind your teeth.
- Do not smoke, since it slows healing and affects the lifespan of implants and gum health.
- Call us if a restoration feels loose or your bite feels different.
