Full Mouth Reconstruction

Patients with several missing teeth or significant dental decay can still win back a full, healthy smile. A dentist can restore the appearance, health, and function of the oral structures with a full mouth reconstruction. Learn more about how full mouth reconstruction with Dr. John Goodman in Kansas City, MO, can improve your oral health.

Benefits of Full Mouth Reconstruction

Restored Comfort and Function

Struggling with sensitive, loose, or missing teeth can take the joy out of eating because it is more difficult to bite and chew certain foods. In addition, conditions such as bruxism and TMJ disorder can cause chronic discomfort. Full mouth reconstruction can address these issues to restore oral comfort and function when your jaw is at rest, and when eating and speaking.

Improved Appearance

Unfortunately, worn, decayed, missing, and discolored teeth affect how your smile looks. If you feel uncomfortable showing off your smile due to oral health problems, know that full mouth reconstruction has the added benefit of improving the appearance of your smile. We use high quality porcelain materials for our restorations to produce attractive and natural looking results.

The Full Mouth Reconstruction Consultation

During your consultation, Dr. Goodman will thoroughly assess the health of your mouth. Every case is customized to address the patient's concerns and meet their smile goals.

Photography and diagnostic wax-ups may be used to help patients visualize possible results and help us refine your plan. In some cases, a consultation with an oral surgeon is included if tooth extractions, dental implants, or gum surgery are a necessary part of your treatment plan. If periodontal disease is present, we will make a plan to treat it before you receive restorative work to minimize the risk of infection.

Dr. Goodman has more than 25 years of experience performing complex full mouth reconstruction treatment plans. If you are ready to take the first step toward achieving your new smile, consider scheduling an appointment at our practice. Contact our dentistry office online or give us a call in Kansas City at:

"Honestly incredible."

Moved here from Chicago and very happy Dr. Goodman was the first dentist I saw here in KC. The staff was super friendly, communicated well, and didn’t try to upsell or do any unnecessary work. I really felt like the center of care

Dr. Goodman and his staff were honestly incredible. I’ve never been to a dentist that’s taken his time to talk me through recommendations, and had the best interest of the client in mind. I would absolutely recommend him! Probably the best dental experience I’ve ever had.

The Cost of Full Mouth Reconstruction

Because full mouth reconstruction treatment plans are highly customizable, patients need to come in for a consultation for an accurate quote. In fact, no two treatment plans are exactly the same.

Potential price ranges for some of the most common treatments include:

Porcelain Crowns: $1,500-$1,650
Dental Implants: $3,000-$5,000 per tooth (plus surgical cost)

However, because a full mouth reconstruction is a restorative dental treatment, insurance may cover a portion of your expenses. Our financial coordinator at our Kansas City practice will work with your dental insurance company to get as much coverage as possible to limit your out-of-pocket costs.

Who Is a Candidate?

Anyone who has experienced significant oral health issues can benefit from full mouth reconstruction. This personalized plan can address many concerns that affect the mouth, such as:

Tooth decay
Tooth loss
Fractured or broken teeth
TMJ disorder
Bruxism (chronic grinding and clenching)
Bone or tissue loss
Misalignment and malocclusion

Commonly Combined Treatments

Other Possible Treatments

In some cases, your full mouth reconstruction treatment plan may be combined with cosmetic procedures such as porcelain veneers or teeth whitening. Porcelain veneers can be placed to mask worn-looking front teeth. Teeth whitening may be performed to whiten any natural teeth that will remain in the mouth so they match the bright, white color of any new restorations. Schedule your consultation to find out if veneers or teeth whitening should be included in your treatment plan.

How Long Does Treatment Take?

/

Because each treatment plan is designed around the needs of the patient, every full mouth reconstruction will be different. The procedures recommended for you will determine how long your overall treatment takes to complete. During your consultation at our Kansas City dental practice, Dr. Goodman can offer an estimated treatment timeline.
