Your smile is key to how you connect with others — and I want you to feel confident sharing it. I’m Dr. Hugh Flax, an award-winning cosmetic dentist in Atlanta and the former president of the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry. I specialize in full-mouth reconstruction, also called full-mouth rehabilitation. This comprehensive treatment restores both the health and beauty of your teeth, no matter how damaged or worn they may be.
At my Sandy Springs dental office, I combine advanced restorative dentistry with a compassionate approach. My team and I focus on your comfort at every step so the process feels clear, manageable, and even exciting. Together, we can rebuild your smile so you can eat, speak, and laugh with confidence again.
What Is Full-Mouth Reconstruction?
A full-mouth reconstruction addresses all of your teeth and supporting structures to restore both function and aesthetics. Depending on your needs, your personalized plan may include treatments such as:
- Dental implants
- Porcelain crowns and veneers
- Gum grafts and periodontal care
- Orthodontics or bite correction
- Replacing outdated or broken dental work
Every plan is different because every patient is different. I design your treatment around your health needs, goals, and facial aesthetics so your new smile looks natural and feels comfortable.
Who Needs Full-Mouth Reconstruction?
You may be a candidate if you struggle with:
- Severely decayed, damaged, or missing teeth
- Advanced gum disease or gum recession
- Bite or jaw alignment issues (underbite, overbite, crossbite)
- Facial collapse from missing teeth or bone loss
- Old or failing dental work that no longer functions well
Instead of treating these problems one at a time, full-mouth reconstruction allows me to create a coordinated plan that restores your smile as a whole.
Benefits of Full-Mouth Reconstruction
Patients choose this treatment not only for health but also for the life-changing confidence it brings. Some of the benefits include:
- Personalizing and rejuvenating your mouth focusing on the “big picture” instead of one tooth at a time allows you to have your new smile and bite completed sooner than waiting for many years of care
- Restored ability to chew, speak, and swallow comfortably
- Healthier gums and stronger oral tissues
- Proper bite alignment and jaw support
- Natural-looking, evenly shaped teeth
- A brighter, whiter smile with porcelain restorations
- A more youthful facial profile after replacing missing teeth
- Coordinated care in one place — no running from office to office
My Full-Mouth Reconstruction Process
-
Consultation & Evaluation
I begin with a thorough exam, digital scans, and photos of your teeth, gums, and bite. I also study your facial features and jaw position. Most importantly, I’ll listen to your concerns and goals. Together, we’ll design a plan that makes sense for your lifestyle and desired outcome.
-
Foundation of Health
Before we begin cosmetic or restorative work, I make sure your mouth is healthy. That may mean treating gum disease, addressing tooth decay, or extracting teeth that can’t be saved. Building on a healthy foundation ensures lasting results.
-
Restorative & Cosmetic Treatments
Depending on your needs, I may place dental implants, design porcelain crowns or veneers, or perform bite corrections sometimes with Invisalign. Every step is carefully sequenced to give you the best long-term outcome.
-
Healing & Adjustments
As your smile heals, I monitor your progress and fine-tune your restorations. My goal is to ensure your new bite feels natural and your smile looks like it was always meant to be yours.
Full-Mouth Reconstruction FAQs
Are dental implants used in full-mouth reconstruction?
Yes. I often use implants to replace missing teeth, support bridges, or anchor dentures. They provide stability, prevent bone loss, and restore natural chewing function.
How long does the process take?
It depends on your needs. Smaller cases may take a few weeks, while more complex plans — especially those involving implants — can take 9–12 months. I’ll give you a personalized timeline at your consultation.
Is the treatment painful?
I use advanced techniques, local anesthesia, and sedation options when needed to keep you comfortable. Most patients experience only mild soreness afterward, which can be managed with medication.
How much does full-mouth reconstruction cost?
The cost depends on the treatments involved. After your exam, I’ll give you a detailed estimate and discuss financing options. Many of my patients find that the long-term benefits make it one of the best investments in their health and quality of life.
