Many Anaheim patients who come to The Loft Dental Studio for full mouth reconstruction have spent years and thousands of dollars on individual dental treatments that ultimately failed. A crown here, an extraction there, a bridge that lasted a few years before the supporting teeth gave out. The problem with this piecemeal approach is that it treats symptoms without addressing the underlying disease process or the systemic imbalance in the mouth. Gum disease continues to destroy bone beneath restorations that look fine on the surface. A bridge placed without adequate bone support fails within years. Teeth shift into extraction sites, changing the bite and overloading the remaining teeth.
Full mouth reconstruction takes the opposite approach. Instead of reacting to each problem as it arises, our tri-specialist team evaluates the entire oral system, identifies every active disease process, every structural weakness, and every aesthetic concern, then designs a coordinated treatment plan that addresses everything in a logical, phased sequence. The foundation is built first: gum disease is treated, bone is regenerated, and the biological environment is stabilized. Only then are the permanent restorations placed. This approach costs more upfront than patching one tooth at a time, but it produces results that last decades rather than years, and it eliminates the frustrating cycle of repeated failures.
The foundation of every successful full mouth reconstruction is the coordinated collaboration between specialists whose training covers the entire scope of complex dental treatment. At The Loft Dental Studio, three independently credentialed specialists work together on your case.
This tri-specialist model means you never have to choose between surgical expertise, prosthetic precision, and aesthetic beauty. You get all three because each discipline is handled by a specialist who has dedicated their career to that specific area. The three doctors consult with each other directly, review diagnostic data together, and coordinate treatment sequencing to minimize your total time in the chair and maximize the quality of the final result.
Anaheim patients can begin with a consultation at our local satellite office or visit our Costa Mesa flagship for a comprehensive tri-specialist evaluation.
Call Anaheim (714) 776-7132Full mouth reconstruction requires precision at every stage, from initial diagnosis through final restoration delivery. At our Costa Mesa flagship, we use technology that allows our specialists to plan and execute treatment with a level of accuracy that was not possible even a decade ago.
Cone beam computed tomography provides a three-dimensional view of your jawbone, teeth, nerve pathways, and sinuses. For implant planning, this means Dr. Ahn can determine the exact bone volume available at each proposed implant site, identify areas requiring bone grafting, and plan implant angles and positions with millimeter precision before surgery begins. This pre-surgical planning dramatically reduces surgical time and improves implant success rates.
Instead of messy traditional impressions with trays of putty, we use digital scanning technology to create precise virtual models of your teeth and gums. These digital models allow Dr. Lu to design restorations on screen, visualize the final result, and send fabrication instructions directly to the dental laboratory. Digital impressions are more accurate than traditional methods, more comfortable for the patient, and allow for faster turnaround on prosthetic fabrication.
Using the 3D data from the CBCT scan and the prosthetic plan designed by Dr. Lu, a surgical guide is fabricated that fits over the existing teeth or gums and directs the implant drill to the exact planned position, angle, and depth. Guided surgery reduces surgical time, minimizes tissue trauma, and ensures that each implant is placed precisely where it needs to be for optimal prosthetic support.
Platelet-rich fibrin is derived from a small sample of your own blood, processed in a centrifuge to concentrate the growth factors and healing proteins. Dr. Ahn places PRF membranes at surgical sites to accelerate bone and soft tissue healing, reduce post-operative swelling and discomfort, and improve the predictability of bone grafting procedures. Because PRF comes from your own body, there is zero risk of allergic reaction or rejection.
Full mouth reconstruction is not a single-visit procedure. It is a carefully staged process that respects the body's healing biology while working toward a complete result as efficiently as possible. Here is a typical timeline for Anaheim patients.
Patients frequently ask whether there is a way to speed up full mouth reconstruction. While I understand the desire to have a completed smile as quickly as possible, the biological realities of bone healing and implant integration cannot be safely rushed. Bone grafts need time to mature and consolidate. Implants need time to fuse with the bone through osseointegration. Placing final restorations before these processes are complete dramatically increases the risk of failure. What we can do, and what our tri-specialist approach enables, is to overlap phases wherever safely possible, combining procedures that would otherwise require separate appointments, and minimizing administrative delays by keeping all treatment within one coordinated practice. This typically shaves several months off the total timeline compared to the traditional referral-based model where patients bounce between separate offices.
Full mouth reconstruction is a personalized treatment, and the cost reflects the specific combination of procedures your case requires. After your comprehensive evaluation, we provide a detailed, itemized estimate so you can see exactly what each component costs and make informed decisions about your care.
The Loft Dental Studio accepts most major PPO dental insurance plans. Individual components of your reconstruction including crowns, bridges, extractions, periodontal treatment, and increasingly dental implants are often partially covered. We perform a thorough benefits verification before treatment starts. Accepted plans include Delta Dental, Cigna, MetLife, Guardian, Aetna, United Healthcare, and Blue Cross Blue Shield.
We partner with CareCredit to offer low-interest and interest-free payment plans that spread the cost of treatment over time. We also accept FSA (Flexible Spending Account) and HSA (Health Savings Account) funds, which allow you to use pre-tax dollars for dental treatment. For patients with complex cases, our treatment coordinator can help you develop a payment strategy that phases the financial commitment alongside the phased treatment timeline.

Yes. The Loft Dental Studio operates a satellite office in Anaheim at 1007 W La Palma Ave, Suite 5, Anaheim, CA 92801. You can reach the Anaheim office at (714) 776-7132. The flagship location in Costa Mesa at 3151 Airway Ave, Suite F-103, Costa Mesa, CA 92626 is where our full tri-specialist team and advanced technology such as CBCT 3D imaging are located. For full mouth reconstruction cases, the comprehensive evaluation and surgical procedures are typically performed at the Costa Mesa flagship, which is approximately 15 minutes from Anaheim via CA-55 South or I-5 South. Some follow-up appointments may be available at the Anaheim satellite location for patient convenience.
Your first consultation is a comprehensive diagnostic appointment that typically lasts 60 to 90 minutes. You will meet with all three specialists: Dr. Ahn (periodontist), Dr. Lu (prosthodontist), and Dr. Filipenka (cosmetic dentist). The evaluation includes a full-mouth series of digital X-rays, a CBCT 3D scan of your jawbone when implants are being considered, digital impressions, comprehensive periodontal charting measuring the health of your gums and bone around every tooth, a bite analysis, and an aesthetic evaluation of your smile. After the diagnostic data is collected, our specialists review the findings together and develop a coordinated treatment plan. You then receive a detailed presentation of the proposed treatment including the sequence of procedures, estimated timeline, and itemized cost breakdown. No treatment begins until you fully understand and approve the plan.
The number of appointments depends on the complexity of your case and which procedures are needed. A straightforward reconstruction involving crowns and minor surgical work may require 8 to 12 appointments over 4 to 6 months. A complex case involving bone grafting, multiple implants, and full-arch prosthetics may require 15 to 25 appointments over 12 to 18 months. We schedule strategically to minimize total visits: surgical procedures that can be safely combined are performed in the same session, and multiple impressions or adjustments are often handled in a single appointment. For Anaheim patients, some routine follow-up appointments may be available at our Anaheim satellite office to reduce travel. Our scheduling team works with you to find appointment times that accommodate your work and personal schedule.
Yes. Bite problems, also called malocclusion, are one of the most common reasons patients need full mouth reconstruction. When teeth are missing, worn down, or positioned incorrectly, the bite becomes unbalanced. Certain teeth receive excessive force while others do not contact properly. This imbalance causes a chain of problems: premature wear on overloaded teeth, cracking and fracturing, jaw muscle fatigue, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain, headaches, and even neck and shoulder tension. During full mouth reconstruction, Dr. Lu carefully analyzes your bite and designs the restorations to establish a stable, harmonious occlusion where forces are distributed evenly across all teeth. Many patients report that chronic jaw pain and headaches they had lived with for years resolved after their bite was properly reconstructed.
Most PPO dental insurance plans cover individual components of full mouth reconstruction, though they will not cover the entire treatment as a single procedure. Crowns are typically covered at 50 to 80 percent of the allowed fee. Extractions, periodontal surgery, and bone grafting often qualify for coverage as well. Dental implant coverage varies by plan but is increasingly common. Cosmetic procedures such as elective veneers are generally not covered. The Loft Dental Studio accepts most major PPO dental plans including Delta Dental, Cigna, MetLife, Guardian, Aetna, United Healthcare, and Blue Cross Blue Shield. Our team performs a detailed insurance verification and provides a written estimate showing your insurance benefits, expected coverage, and out-of-pocket responsibility before any treatment begins. We also offer CareCredit financing and accept FSA and HSA funds.
Dr. Lu selects materials based on the specific demands of each tooth position. For teeth in the smile zone where aesthetics are paramount, high-translucency zirconia or lithium disilicate (e-max) ceramics provide the most natural appearance, closely mimicking the light-reflecting properties of natural enamel. For posterior teeth that bear heavy chewing forces, full-contour zirconia provides exceptional strength and durability while still looking natural. For full-arch implant prosthetics, the framework may be milled from titanium or zirconia for strength, with a layered ceramic outer surface for aesthetics. All materials used at The Loft Dental Studio are biocompatible, metal-free in the visible zone, and designed to last 15 to 25 years or longer with proper maintenance. Dr. Lu discusses the material options, advantages, and cost differences with you during the treatment planning process so you can make an informed choice.
