The Full Mouth Reconstruction Process
Patients undergo full mouth reconstruction over multiple dental office visits, which may span the course of several weeks or months. During your consultation, Dr. Salari will determine which procedure or combination of procedures is necessary to restore and rebuild your smile.

Full Mouth Reconstruction FAQs
How Long Does a Full Mouth Reconstruction Procedure Take?
Your full mouth reconstruction can consist of any number of treatments, meaning that how long it’ll take will vary from person to person. The overall length of treatment will depend on a few factors, like how many teeth are being treated and the severity of the damage to your smile.
It’s also worth noting that there are some treatments that can be completed at the same appointment, while others aren’t compatible in this way. For that reason, the style of treatment you’re getting can also impact how long the reconstruction takes.
Does Getting a Full Mouth Reconstruction Hurt?
No matter what kind of treatment it is that you’re receiving from us, we can assure you that your comfort is paramount. We do everything we can to ensure that every procedure you receive from us is completely painless, including the use of local anesthetics and sedatives when necessary.
Depending on the treatments you’re receiving, you may be a little sore after you leave our office. We’ll provide you with aftercare instructions in order to help you stay comfortable and speed up the healing process.
Can I Get a Full Mouth Reconstruction if I Smoke?
Smoking doesn’t necessarily disqualify you from a full mouth reconstruction, but it can make the various treatments you receive a lot more complicated. Nicotine and tobacco use of any kind can substantially delay healing and increase the risk of many different treatments failing. For that reason, it’s usually a good idea to try and avoid tobacco products for a few weeks before and after your procedure.
Will People Be Able to Tell That I Had a Full Mouth Reconstruction?
Modern cosmetic and reconstructive dentistry are incredibly sophisticated, and we work very hard to ensure that the treatments we provide match you as well as they possibly can. All this being the case, you can expect your teeth to be absolutely beautiful and realistic once your full mouth reconstruction is complete.
We also know that some patients are intimidated by dramatic changes in their smile, so if you’d like your results to be a bit more subtle, we’ll be happy to accommodate that as well.
