The phrase can sound alarming the first time you meet it. If you live in West Kildonan and want it explained in everyday language, this page starts with the basics.
Let's find a time
Despite how it sounds, this is not a single operation, and it does not automatically mean a cosmetic makeover. The name describes a coordinated series of treatments, used when damage, missing teeth, bite concerns or disease reach across much of the mouth.
Think of it as an organizing idea more than a procedure. Pressing needs, disease control, functional goals and long-term restorations are arranged into an order that you can follow, and that order can shift as your mouth responds. West Kildonan is in Winnipeg, and patients from there are seen at our McPhillips Street clinic.
Explore full-mouth reconstruction
The word reconstruction refers to how separate kinds of care are lined up, rather than to any one technique.
Work is normally divided into phases, so the whole mouth is not being treated in a single sitting.
How your teeth look may matter to you, yet structure, function and disease are the starting concerns.
Misunderstandings about this kind of care are common, largely because of the name. Separating what it involves from what people tend to assume can take away a good deal of the worry.
A plan of this type gathers whichever treatments your situation calls for and decides how they relate to each other.
Some of the assumptions attached to the phrase simply do not hold, and each one is worth setting aside early.
Whether a coordinated plan fits your mouth at all is a question for an in-person assessment with the dentist. Reading about it here cannot settle that.
Sequences differ from person to person, though the general logic is steady: health comes first, function follows, and final details arrive last.
Request your visitPain, infection and any tooth in immediate danger are addressed ahead of everything else.
Decay and gum disease are brought under control, which creates conditions that can be looked after over time.
Where it helps, provisional care lets you and the dentist evaluate bite, comfort or appearance before anything is finalized.
Long-term restorations go in during scheduled stages, after which hygiene visits, reviews and any appliance care look after them.
You are not expected to know the terminology or to have decided anything. Describing what you notice in ordinary words gives the conversation plenty to work with.
If someone used this term with you in the past, mention what you recall being told, even if the details are hazy.

Dental language can leave people nodding along without following. You are entitled to stop and ask what something means, as often as you need to.
When a word goes past you, ask to hear it again in simpler terms.
Photographs and scans can show what a description of your teeth is actually referring to.
Repeating the plan in your own words is a quick way to catch anything that was misunderstood.
The part the name leaves out
The word reconstruction suggests a finish line, but the results still need looking after. Learning that early gives you a more accurate idea of what you are considering.
Teeth, implants and restorations all benefit from professional cleaning, and the interval is something to raise with the clinic.
Looking at how your teeth meet over time is one part of keeping completed work in good condition.
Some people are advised to use a night guard or particular cleaning aids. Ask whether either applies to you.

Helpful details about full-mouth reconstruction in West Kildonan.
Ask our teamNo. It is a coordinated set of treatments, which may or may not include surgical steps, and these are usually spread across phases instead of being done together.
It does not. The combination is chosen for your own mouth, and saving teeth is often part of the discussion. Teeth that are healthy may need nothing more than regular care.
A makeover is driven by appearance. Reconstruction is mainly concerned with health, structure, function and missing teeth, and any cosmetic hopes are considered within that foundation.
You and the dentist reach that together after an assessment. Sometimes the records point to a large coordinated plan, and sometimes to something far more limited.
Timing varies widely. Gum treatment, orthodontics, implants, healing and laboratory stages can stretch care over many months or longer, depending on which of them your plan includes.
Yes, questions are welcome at (204) 338-3003. If you later decide to go ahead, the assessment takes place at the McPhillips Street clinic in Winnipeg.
A plan can borrow from any of these areas of dentistry, though none of them is automatic. Your assessment shows which ones actually concern you.
