Full-Mouth Reconstruction St. Albert

Comprehensive restorative dentistry focused on bite function, tooth preservation and long-term oral health.

At Family Dental, Dr. Cristina Sovarel and Dr. Ioana Sovarel take a comprehensive approach to restoring damaged, worn or missing teeth. Rather than looking at each tooth in isolation, we consider how your teeth, bite and overall oral health work together when planning treatment.

Both dentists have undertaken extensive postgraduate training at the Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies (LVI Global) . Their advanced education supports a comprehensive approach to restorative treatment, occlusion and long-term dental function.

What Is Full-Mouth Reconstruction?

Full-mouth reconstruction, also called full-mouth rehabilitation, involves restoring multiple teeth to improve oral function, structural integrity and overall dental health. Treatment may address extensive tooth wear, damaged teeth, missing teeth or problems affecting how your upper and lower teeth meet.

Every case is different. Some patients need a limited number of restorations, while others may benefit from a coordinated treatment plan involving several procedures. Our dentists assess your individual needs before recommending the appropriate care.

When Might Full-Mouth Reconstruction Be Appropriate?

Extensive tooth wear or loss of tooth structure.
Multiple cracked, broken or weakened teeth.
Missing teeth that affect chewing or dental function.
Several existing restorations that need reassessment.
Bite concerns that need evaluation as part of restorative treatment.
A combination of dental problems requiring coordinated care.

Why Your Bite Matters

Your bite, also known as dental occlusion, describes how your upper and lower teeth contact when you close your mouth and move your jaw. These relationships affect how chewing forces are distributed across your teeth and restorations.

When significant tooth wear, damaged teeth or changes in your bite are present, assessing these relationships can help inform restorative treatment planning. The goal is to consider both the individual teeth and how they function together.

Family Dental offers digital bite assessment using T-Scan technology when clinically appropriate. This technology provides information about the timing and relative distribution of tooth contacts to support the clinical assessment.

What Treatments May Be Involved?

Your treatment plan depends on your dental condition, gum health, bite and existing restorations. Depending on your needs, full-mouth reconstruction may involve several types of treatment.

Dental Crowns

Crowns can restore teeth that have lost significant strength or structure. They may form part of a plan to restore the function of worn or damaged teeth. Explore our dental crown services .

Dental Bridges and Implants

Missing teeth may affect chewing and the distribution of biting forces. Depending on your circumstances, bridges or dental implants may be considered as part of a comprehensive restorative plan. Learn about dental bridges and dental implants .

Fillings and Other Restorations

When appropriate, restorative fillings and other conservative treatments can repair damaged tooth structure. Preserving healthy natural tooth structure remains an important consideration when selecting treatment.

A Long-Term Approach to Dental Health

Comprehensive reconstruction involves more than repairing individual teeth. Our dentists consider how proposed treatments work together, what may have contributed to existing dental problems and what maintenance may be needed over time.

Your assessment may include an examination of your teeth and gums, evaluation of your bite, appropriate diagnostic imaging and a review of your dental history.

We explain our findings, discuss suitable treatment options and outline the expected benefits, limitations, costs and maintenance requirements. Where appropriate, we also consider conservative alternatives.

No restoration lasts forever, and outcomes depend on individual circumstances, oral hygiene, biting forces and ongoing care. Our aim is to plan treatment with function, durability and your long-term oral health in mind.

Depending on the condition of your teeth and gums, treatment may involve crowns, bridges, fillings, or other restorative procedures. Your dentist will recommend options based on your individual needs.

The way your upper and lower teeth meet affects how chewing forces are distributed. Evaluating your bite can help your dentist identify uneven contacts and consider how they may affect restorations, tooth wear, and overall function.

T-Scan is a digital system that records the timing and relative distribution of contacts between your teeth as you bite. It can provide additional information when evaluating bite function and planning certain restorative treatments. Learn more about our T-Scan digital occlusion technology.

Treatment time depends on the number of teeth involved, the procedures required, and your oral health. Some treatment plans can be completed in a relatively short period, while more complex cases may require several appointments over a longer period.
