What Is a Full Mouth Restoration?
When the teeth and gums have sustained extensive damage due to decay, enamel erosion, wear, gum disease, and/or trauma, a full mouth restoration plan can be developed to improve your oral health, rebuild tooth structure, and create a beautiful smile. Depending on your needs, your plan may combine several restorative, reconstructive, and cosmetic treatments in order to achieve your goals. Multiple procedures may be performed within a series of appointments or in phases.
Who Are Candidates for Full Mouth Restoration?
Patients with several chipped or missing teeth, cracked or broken crowns, and those who suffer from stains, severe decay, or enamel breakdown on multiple teeth are often ideal candidates for a full mouth restoration. Some patients have also had a full mouth restoration in order to fix crooked or misaligned teeth without having to undergo orthodontics. Every patient’s needs are different, and Dr. Sands has the experience and skills to provide you with options that will meet your needs.
A full mouth restoration can also help those who are experiencing:
- Crowns or other dental restorations that are no longer attractive or functional
- Wear from grinding or clenching teeth
- Erosion of dental enamel
- Yellowed or stained teeth
- A single missing tooth or multiple missing teeth
- Injuries to the teeth and/or mouth due to a traumatic accident
- Misshapen or unattractive teeth
“Dr. Kevin Sands and his staff are truly AMAZING!! On my first visit I went in for routine check up and consultation. I was given the red carpet treatment the minute I walked in the door.

What Are the Steps of a Full Mouth Restoration?
Evaluation & Treatment Planning
Dr. Sands will perform a thorough evaluation of your teeth and gums and design a customized treatment plan that addresses your needs to provide you with the best possible results. During the consultation process, he uses our advanced Planmeca ProMax® 3D imaging technology to capture high resolution digital images, which reveal the condition of your teeth and jaw. These 3D scans can help Dr. Sands explain any dental concerns he finds and the treatment options available to resolve them.
Improvement of Oral Health
Before dental implant surgery or the placement of crowns and porcelain veneers, your dental health needs to be in top condition. Dr. Sands may include treatments to eliminate gingival issues, decay, or signs of infection in your full mouth restoration plan to create a healthy foundation for successful, long-lasting restorative and cosmetic dental work.
Restoration & Aesthetic Enhancement
Once your dental health is on track, restorative and cosmetic procedures to rebuild and enhance your smile can be performed. Since each procedure is handled differently, Dr. Sands will walk you through the stages of progress to expect, whether you are receiving dental implants, veneers, or crowns. Images recorded with the Planmeca ProMax® 3D during your evaluation can be used to customize any restorations you may require so that they fit precisely and comfortably. Additionally, the type of material and fabrication techniques used to craft your restorations will be fully customized to suit your desired outcome. The emphasis is always on creating restorations that are beautifully natural-looking and long-lasting.
Finishing Your New Smile
When your final restorations are put in place and all treatments have been successfully completed, you can enjoy your healthy, attractive smile. Dr. Sands is attentive to every detail and works diligently to ensure an outstanding final result!
