Step-by-Step Guide to Full Mouth Reconstruction: From Consultation to Smile
Every lasting smile starts with a clear plan. Here’s what the full mouth restoration process looks like at HospitalOne.
1. Consultation & 3D Imaging
We begin with a comprehensive consultation, including:
Digital X-rays
Intraoral scanning
CBCT 3D imaging
This allows us to assess your bone density, tooth structure, and tailor the best approach for you.

2. Personalised Treatment Plan
Your care team, prosthodontists, surgeons, and restorative dentists, will work together to create a detailed plan based on:
Number of implants required
Ideal materials (e.g. Zirconia, E-Max)
Budget, time, and aesthetic goals
You’ll receive a custom timeline, price breakdown, and pre/post-surgery guidance.
3. Surgery: Implants & Extractions
Your treatment may include:
Removing failing teeth
Placing 4–6 implants per arch (All-on-4 or All-on-6)
Using sedation or anaesthesia for comfort
Procedures are performed in a hospital environment with anaesthetists and surgical safety standards.
4. Healing Phase (Osseointegration)
After surgery, implants need time to fuse with bone. This phase takes 3–6 months. You may receive:
Temporary teeth for comfort and function
Checkups to monitor healing
5. Final Restoration: Crowns or Bridges
Once healed, we fit your permanent prosthetics using:
CAD/CAM custom-milled teeth
Zirconia or E-Max materials for natural aesthetics
Bite adjustment and polish for comfort
Your new smile is ready, designed to last and feel real.
6. Aftercare & Maintenance
Regular checkups and hygiene visits
Custom nightguards (if needed)
Guidance on cleaning techniques and diet
With good care, your reconstruction can last 20+ years.

Often yes - especially All-on-4. But we’ll assess your case individually with full 3D imaging.
-
Both can last 10–20+ years. All-on-6 may offer better long-term resilience in certain patients.

Not significantly. Regular hygiene, heckups, and wearing a nightguard if advised are key for both.
