Restore your entire smile with a comprehensive, personalized treatment plan from Dr. Keith. Combining the best restorative and cosmetic procedures for life-changing results.
Full Mouth Reconstruction in San Diego, CA
When multiple teeth are damaged, missing, or failing all at once, a single procedure isn’t the answer. Instead, a comprehensive plan is needed to restore your entire smile from the ground up. Full mouth reconstruction addresses the full scope of your oral health, combining restorative and cosmetic treatments to rebuild your teeth, bite, and confidence in a way that no isolated treatment could accomplish alone. Whether your smile has been affected by years of decay, trauma, gum disease, or worn-down enamel, a complete reconstruction can give you a healthy, functional, and beautiful result that lasts.
At Sunrise Dental Arts, Dr. Andy Keith use individualized strategies with every reconstruction case, carefully evaluating your oral health, listening to your goals, and designing a treatment plan built specifically for you. Our dental procedures in San Diego span the full spectrum of restorative and cosmetic care, meaning that you can receive every phase of your reconstruction under one roof from a team that genuinely invests in your outcome. Located in the heart of Hillcrest, our practice brings together advanced techniques with a patient-first philosophy that puts your comfort and trust at the center of everything we do.
What Full Mouth Reconstruction Involves
Full mouth reconstruction is a carefully sequenced combination of procedures tailored to the condition and goals of each patient. The process begins with a thorough evaluation of your teeth, gums, jawbone, and bite to identify every issue that needs to be addressed before building a detailed plan.
Depending on your unique needs, reconstruction may involve several types of care working together. The most common treatments included are:
- Dental implants: These permanent tooth replacements anchor directly into the jawbone, restoring function and preventing bone loss where teeth are missing.
- Porcelain crowns: Custom-made caps cover and protect damaged or weakened teeth, restoring strength and natural appearance.
- Dental bridges: Fixed restorations are capable of replacing one or more missing teeth by anchoring to adjacent natural teeth or implants.
- Veneers: Thin porcelain shells bond to the front surfaces of teeth to address chips, cracks, discoloration, or irregular shapes.
- Gum disease treatment: Foundational periodontal care must often be completed before restorative work can begin.
- Clear aligners: Orthodontic treatment is used to correct bite alignment that may be contributing to wear or jaw discomfort.
Each of these elements is ordered strategically so that foundational work, like gum health and bone support, is established before cosmetic or restorative procedures are placed on top.
Why a Healthy Foundation Matters
One of the most critical aspects of a successful full mouth reconstruction is addressing the underlying causes of your dental problems before placing final restorations. Attempting to place crowns, veneers, or implants over untreated gum disease or an unstable bite can compromise the longevity of even the most beautifully crafted smile.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, nearly half of adults aged 30 and older in the United States have some form of gum disease, making it one of the most common conditions that contributes to tooth loss and the need for full mouth rehabilitation. Identifying and resolving these issues early in the reconstruction process protects the investment you are making.
Our team carefully monitors your healing at each phase and will not move forward to the next stage of treatment until we are confident that your foundation is stable. This disciplined approach is what sets a well-planned reconstruction apart from patchwork dentistry that may look good initially but fails over time.

Testimonials
Rebuilding Your Bite and Smile Together
A full mouth reconstruction is just as much about how your teeth function as it is about how they look. When teeth are missing or worn down significantly, your bite shifts to compensate, which can cause jaw pain, headaches, uneven wear on remaining teeth, and difficulty chewing. Restoring proper occlusion, which is the way your upper and lower teeth come together, is a central goal of the reconstruction process.
Dental implants in Hillcrest are often a key part of replacing missing teeth during reconstruction since they replicate the natural tooth root, preserving bone and preventing the shifting that missing teeth cause. When paired with porcelain crowns designed to match your natural tooth shape and color, the result is a bite that feels balanced and a smile that looks completely natural.
If you’re dealing with anxiety about the process or the procedures involved, our practice offers sedation dentistry options, including conscious IV sedation and nitrous oxide, so you can move through every phase of your reconstruction while feeling fully calm and comfortable.
