Full Mouth Reconstruction on the Big Island: Reclaim Your Smile

Years of dental problems—whether from decay, trauma, or wear—can take a significant toll on your health, confidence, and quality of life. At our practice in Kailua-Kona, Dr. Sasan Garakani specializes in full mouth reconstruction on the Big Island, serving as the architect for patients who are ready to stop treating one tooth at a time and start a journey toward a completely healthy, functional, and beautiful new smile.

What is Full Mouth Reconstruction?

Full mouth reconstruction is not a single procedure; it is a comprehensive and personalized master plan to rebuild or simultaneously restore all of the teeth in both the upper and lower jaws. The goal is to address complex dental issues and bring your entire mouth back to optimal health, function, and aesthetics.

You may be a candidate for full mouth restoration in Hawaii if you have:

  • Numerous missing, broken, or failing teeth.

  • Severely worn teeth due to long-term acid erosion or grinding.

  • Failing dental work, such as old crowns, bridges, or fillings.

  • Advanced periodontal (gum) disease that has compromised your teeth.

  • Chronic jaw pain (TMD) or an unstable bite.

The Specialist’s Role: Why a Periodontist is Your Foundation

A successful full mouth reconstruction depends entirely on a healthy foundation of gums and bone. Dr. Sasan Garakani is not just a dentist; he is a board-certified periodontist—a surgical specialist with advanced training in the very foundation of your smile. His expertise in dental implantsbone grafting, and managing the gum tissues makes him the ideal leader for your reconstruction team, ensuring your new smile is built to last.

Most asked questions

Here are answers to some of the most frequent questions we receive from patients like you.

How long does the entire full mouth reconstruction process take?

A candidate for full mouth reconstruction is typically someone with multiple, complex dental issues. This includes individuals with numerous missing or failing teeth, severely worn-down teeth from grinding, advanced gum disease that has compromised the bite, or those who are facing the reality of a full upper or lower denture and are looking for a permanent, non-removable solution.

While the timeline varies, the process is very efficient. The initial surgical phase, where implants are placed and a temporary set of teeth is attached, is often done in a single day. The implants then need several months to fully integrate with your jawbone. Once this healing is complete, your final, permanent set of master-crafted teeth is created and secured, completing the process.

Absolutely not. You will never have to go without a beautiful smile. On the day of your implant procedure, you will leave our office with a high-quality, fixed temporary set of teeth that looks and functions much like your final set. You can eat, speak, and smile with confidence from day one.

We ensure your complete comfort throughout the procedure with sedation dentistry, which allows you to be in a deeply relaxed, anxiety-free state. While post-operative soreness is normal as you heal, it is typically well-managed with prescribed medication and resolves within a few days.

Caring for your new teeth is straightforward. You will brush them just like natural teeth. To clean underneath, you will use special tools like a water flosser (e.g., Waterpik) or specialized floss. Regular professional cleanings and check-ups with our team are also essential to ensure the long-term health of your gums and implants.
