Full Mouth Reconstruction in Johnson City, TN

Comprehensive Oral Rehabilitation Dr. John Nauss, DMD ★★★★★ 5.0 on Google
Comprehensive Bite & Smile Rebuilding

Restore total oral function, dental health, and beauty with full mouth reconstruction.

Full mouth reconstruction (also called full mouth rehabilitation) is a customized, multidisciplinary treatment plan that rebuilds and restores all or most of the teeth in both the upper and lower jaws.

Whether your teeth have suffered severe wear from chronic bruxism, extensive decay, trauma, or multiple missing teeth, Dr. John Nauss combines restorative dentistry, implantology, and neuromuscular bite alignment into a seamless care plan.

Using digital smile prototyping and diagnostic wax-ups, we establish your ideal vertical dimension and jaw joint harmony before fabricating durable ceramic and zirconia restorations.

When is Full Mouth Reconstruction Needed?

A life-changing journey designed to eliminate chronic dental pain and rebuild complete chewing strength.

  • Severe Generalized Tooth Wear: Restores vertical bite dimension lost to decades of severe clenching, grinding, or acid erosion.
  • Replaces Multiple Missing Teeth: Combines custom implants, crowns, and bridges to restore a full, balanced 28-tooth functional arch.
  • TMJ Joint and Muscle Relief: Re-aligns the bite geometry to eliminate chronic jaw tension, neck soreness, and TMJ headaches.
  • Complete Aesthetic Rejuvenation: Creates a radiant, symmetrical smile that supports facial muscles and reverses premature facial aging.

The Reconstruction Treatment Process

We begin with a comprehensive diagnostic workup including 3D CBCT scans, digital intraoral mapping, and photographic bite analysis. Any active decay or gum disease is treated first to establish a pristine foundation.

You wear precision aesthetic provisional restorations to test your new bite and smile aesthetics in real life. Once comfort and function are confirmed, your permanent master ceramic crowns, veneers, and implant bridges are delivered.

Comfort and Phased Care

Treatment is done under local anesthesia, and nitrous oxide is available in every operatory to help you relax. Oral and IV sedation will be offered in our office in the future. Flexible phased scheduling allows treatment to be completed comfortably within your timeframe and budget.
