Full mouth implant restoration
What it is, benefits, costs & candidacy
Explore what full-mouth restoration involves, how long results last, what procedures are included, and if it’s the right option for restoring your smile and oral health.
What is full mouth restoration?
Full-mouth restoration is a comprehensive treatment plan designed to rebuild or replace all the teeth in your upper and lower jaws. Today, a full mouth restoration often includes implants. Unlike cosmetic fixes or individual tooth procedures, this approach addresses the full picture—function, appearance, and long-term oral health of the mouth and patient.
Many people pursue full-mouth restoration after dealing with years of dental problems—missing or failing teeth, worn enamel, chronic pain, or poorly fitting dentures. This isn’t just about improving how your smile looks. It’s about improving how your mouth functions.
What’s included in a full mouth restoration?
Your treatment starts with a comprehensive diagnostic evaluation—3D imaging, limited intraoral scans, and impressions of your teeth—to enable precise, personalized planning.
Every case is different, but most treatment components can include one or more of the following:
Full-arch dental implants (4–6 implants per arch)
Crowns and bridges
Single or multiple implant restorations
Tooth extractions
Bone grafts to increase areas of bone deficiency
Veneers for aesthetic enhancement
Benefits of full mouth restoration
This treatment can be truly life-changing, offering:
Increased bite force and restored chewing function
Improved speech clarity
Relief from chronic oral discomfort
Long-term confidence and improved quality of life
Many patients report being able to enjoy meals, conversations, and smiling without worry.

1The Lifetime Zirconia Warranty applies to cracks or breaks in the zirconia arch only and not complications with implant integration or ordinary wear and tear. The warranty will be void if the patient fails to follow clinician care instructions, receives treatment outside the ClearChoice Network or is dismissed as a patient. Available in participating ClearChoice Dental Implant Center locations for treatment on or after 03/21/2025.
Restoration vs. reconstruction vs. rehabilitation
You may see terms like full-mouth reconstruction or full-mouth rehabilitation used interchangeably by dental and medical literature. One term is not necessarily more or less comprehensive than another. Some patients are told their only option is dentures. In such cases, a full mouth dental implant restoration — typically involving 4–6 implants per arch — can offer a more stable, natural-feeling alternative.
You may be a candidate if experiencing:
Multiple missing or failing teeth
Severe tooth wear from grinding or acid reflux
Difficulty chewing or speaking
Jaw discomfort or bite misalignment
Unstable or sore-inducing dentures

Full mouth restoration FAQs
Are there risks?
As with any surgical procedure, there are risks—including but not limited to:
Delayed healing
Nerve irritation
Allergic reactions
Possible long-term complications
The FDA advises attentive oral hygiene and consistent professional follow-up to support the implant success.
Implant survival and osseointegration
Long-term implant survival ranges from 93–98% over 5–10 years, with cumulative 20-year survival at approximately 78–92%⁴.
Osseointegration (bone bonding to the implant) is vital and typically occurs within 2–6 months.
Regular monitoring (e.g., via resonance frequency analysis) helps verify implant stability.

Are full-mouth implants worth it?
Many patients say implants dramatically impacted their comfort, confidence, and durability.
Is recovery painful?
Most patients report experiencing manageable discomfort, with significantly less pain after the first few days.
Can treatment relieve jaw pain?
Yes—especially when a patient’s original issues stem from bite misalignment or TMJ-related causes.
How long does each surgery take?
A full-arch procedure typically takes 2–4 hours.
Does insurance cover it?
