Does Any of This Sound Familiar?
You don't have to keep working around these problems. A complete evaluation can show you what's actually possible.
What Happens When You Keep Waiting?
Bone and Gum Deterioration
Every month without treatment, supporting structures weaken and become harder to restore.
More Teeth Affected
Damaged teeth place extra stress on healthy ones, spreading wear and breakdown over time.
Treatment Gets More Involved
Conditions that are straightforward today become significantly more complex and costly later.
Fewer Restorative Options
Bone loss and continued damage can eventually limit which solutions are still available to you.
Daily Function Keeps Declining
Avoiding certain foods and compensating with your jaw creates new problems on top of existing ones.
Costs Increase Significantly
The longer reconstruction is delayed, the more extensive, and more expensive, the treatment typically becomes.
Starting sooner means a simpler path and a better result on the other side.
What Is Full Mouth Reconstruction?
Full mouth reconstruction is a comprehensive, customized treatment plan that addresses multiple dental concerns at the same time. Unlike a single procedure, it combines the right mix of restorative and corrective treatments to repair teeth, restore bite function, and rebuild the foundation your smile needs. This may include crowns, dental implants (permanent tooth replacements), bridges (replacements for missing teeth), periodontal treatment, or other restorations depending on what your evaluation reveals.
The approach we take at Sullivan Dental Partners begins with a thorough assessment rather than assumptions. For patients seeking full mouth reconstruction in Brentwood, the process starts with digital x-rays, 3-D scans, and a detailed review of your bite, gum health, and bone structure. Our in-house lab and advanced technology allow us to plan every phase of your treatment with precision before a single restoration is made.

| Factor | Dental Implants | All-on-X | Fixed Bridge | Crowns | Dentures |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Best suited for | Single or multiple missing teeth with healthy bone | Full arch of missing or failing teeth | One to three consecutive missing teeth | Damaged or decayed teeth that remain | Full arch replacement without implants |
| Jawbone preservation | Yes, stimulates bone | Yes, partial stimulation | No direct preservation | Not applicable | No, bone loss continues |
| Stability | Fixed and permanent | Fixed and implant-supported | Fixed in place | Fixed in place | Removable, may shift |
| Longevity | Decades with proper care | Decades with proper care | 10-15 years typically | 10-15 years typically | 5-10 years with adjustments |
| Maintenance | Brush and floss like natural teeth | Specialized cleaning routine | Floss threader required | Standard oral hygiene | Remove for cleaning nightly |
| Number of procedures | Two-phase surgical process | Single surgical phase | Non-surgical placement | Single appointment possible | Fitting and adjustment visits |
| Key advantage | Most natural function and feel | Full arch solution with fewer implants | No surgery required | Preserves existing tooth structure | No surgical component |

What to Expect During Full Mouth Reconstruction
Comprehensive Evaluation
Your first appointment focuses entirely on understanding your full picture. We take digital x-rays, 3-D scans, and intraoral photos, and we review your bite, gum health, and bone density. You will have time to share your goals and concerns so the plan we build reflects what actually matters to you.
Treatment Planning
Using the data gathered during your evaluation, we develop a phased treatment plan that sequences each procedure in the right order. In-house planning means everything from restoration design to lab work is coordinated under one roof. You'll leave this appointment with a clear understanding of the full timeline and what each phase involves.
Foundation Treatments
Before any cosmetic or final restorations begin, we address the underlying conditions that need to be stable first. This may include periodontal treatment (care for your gums and supporting structures), extractions if needed, bone grafting to prepare implant sites, or other foundational work. Sedation options are available throughout this phase and every phase that follows.
Restorations and Implant Placement
This is where the visible transformation takes shape. Implants are placed, crowns are fitted, bridges are secured, and other restorations are completed in the sequence determined during planning. Our in-house lab allows for faster turnaround on custom restorations, which means fewer gaps between appointments and a smoother overall experience.
Final Results and Long-Term Monitoring
Once all restorations are in place, we do a final review of your bite, comfort, and appearance to make sure everything is functioning exactly as intended. We set you up with a maintenance plan and schedule ongoing checkups to protect the investment you have made in your smile.

Recovery After Full Mouth Reconstruction
First 24-48 Hours
Some mild swelling and tenderness around treated areas is normal and expected during this window. Soft foods, rest, and over-the-counter or prescribed relief will keep you comfortable. Most patients find the first couple of days far easier than they anticipated.
First 1-2 Weeks
Swelling continues to resolve and you will begin to notice improvements in comfort and function. You can gradually reintroduce normal foods as directed, and most patients return to regular daily activities within a few days of each phase. Any sensitivity around new restorations typically settles during this period.
Long-Term Healing
Implants and bone grafts require additional time for full integration, typically several months. During this phase, the work happening beneath the surface is significant even if you cannot see it. Follow-up appointments allow us to monitor progress and confirm everything is healing on track before the next phase begins.
