How can we help you?
At Carrollwood Village Dental, patient education is a priority. The more you understand about your oral health, the better equipped you are to make decisions about your care. Dr. Mancuso takes time at every appointment to answer questions and make sure you're clear on what's going on and what he recommends before any treatment begins.
We've compiled answers to some of the questions we hear most often. If you don't find what you're looking for, call us directly. If you're wondering about it, chances are others are too.
Full Mouth Restoration
Full mouth restoration typically takes anywhere from six months to over a year, depending on the scope of your treatment plan. There is no standard timeline - every case is different, and the factors that affect duration are specific to your situation.
What Affects the Timeline?
Several factors determine how long full mouth restoration takes:
- Number and type of treatments involved: A plan that includes crowns, veneers, and whitening moves faster than one that incorporates implants, gum therapy, or TMJ treatment alongside restorative work.
- Implant integration: If dental implants are part of your plan, several months of healing are required before we place the final restoration. Cases involving implants may take closer to a year from start to finish.
- Healing time between procedures: Some treatments require healing before moving to the next phase. Dr. Mancuso will build appropriate recovery time into your plan.
- Lab fabrication time: We work with a trusted dental lab for custom crowns, bridges, veneers, and other restorations. Fabrication typically takes one to two weeks per restoration, which factors into the overall timeline.
- Patient scheduling flexibility: We schedule appointments around your schedule. If you can come in more frequently, we may be able to complete treatment faster than if you prefer longer intervals between visits. The pace is up to you.
