Full-Mouth Rehabilitation
When the whole picture needs to change.
Full-mouth rehabilitation is for patients whose dental needs go beyond a single tooth or a routine repair — when years of wear, decay, failed dental restorations, or compounding problems call for a coordinated, comprehensive plan. We combine restorative, surgical, and cosmetic dentistry under one roof, designed and delivered by one team.
Who this is for
Is full-mouth rehabilitation right for you?
You may benefit from full-mouth rehabilitation if any of these describe your situation:
- You have multiple failing or missing teeth and are weighing what to do
- You are facing extensive dental treatment and want a single coordinated plan rather than a string of disconnected procedures
- Your bite has shifted, your teeth have worn down, or your face appears shorter than it used to
- You have ongoing pain, sensitivity, or jaw dysfunction tied to multiple teeth
- You have struggled for years with dental restorations that keep failing — failed crowns, broken bridges, recurring decay
- You have been told by another office that your situation is "complicated" and not been given a clear way forward
The defining feature of full-mouth rehabilitation is not the number of teeth involved — it is the coordination. Every decision affects every other decision, and the care needs to be planned as a whole rather than tooth by tooth.
Confidence
Our confidence in this care
We have had excellent clinical success with full-mouth rehabilitation cases at Jackson Dentistry — including the more involved cases that involve opening the bite to regain the proper vertical dimension of occlusion (VDO). Our technology, our expertise, and our well-refined workflow allow us to deliver this care in a predictable fashion. The patient experience throughout the process is something we are genuinely proud of, and the outcomes speak for themselves.
What it involves
What goes into a comprehensive case
Every full-mouth rehabilitation case is unique, but most involve some combination of the following:
Comprehensive evaluation and diagnosis. Before anything else, we need to understand exactly what is happening — bite, joints, individual teeth, gum and bone health, esthetic concerns, and your goals. This is the most important part of the process.
Implant placement for missing teeth — single, multi-tooth, or full-arch All-on-X cases as appropriate.
Periodontal therapy to stabilize gum and bone health before restorative care begins.
Extractions of any teeth that cannot be reliably saved.
Restorative care including crowns, fillings, and bridges as needed.
Bite reconstruction — when significant wear has shortened teeth or changed the bite, rebuilding tooth height and restoring the proper VDO is part of restoring function and appearance.
Cosmetic design — full-mouth cases offer the opportunity to redesign your smile, not just repair what is there. Tooth shape, color, length, and the way the smile frames your face are all part of the design. The Instarisa 3D facial scanner allows us to design with the entire face in view, which produces results that look natural in your face.
Phased treatment. Most full-mouth cases unfold in stages over several months. We sequence the care carefully so that each phase supports the next.
Our approach
How we approach a full-mouth case
Why our approach works
- 1
Point 1
Diagnosis-first thinking.
The biggest difference between a successful full-mouth case and a frustrating one is the quality of the initial diagnosis and plan. We invest significant time at the front end — examining, imaging, listening, planning — so the care itself is built on a clear foundation.
- 2
Point 2
One team, one plan.
Patients undergoing full-mouth care at other practices often bounce between specialists — a periodontist for the gums, an oral surgeon for the implants, a general dentist for the restorations. Each handoff introduces friction. We provide all of this care in-house. One team, one plan, one set of records.
- 3
Point 3
Both doctors involved.
Full-mouth cases benefit from both Dr. Jackson's surgical and implant expertise and Dr. Romine's restorative and cosmetic skill. Many of our most complex cases involve close collaboration between the two of them.

Point 4
Digital workflow throughout.
Every full-mouth case is supported by 3D imaging, digital design with the Instarisa facial scanner, in-house lab capabilities for implant components, and lab-fabricated crowns and prostheses. The technology compounds — small advantages at every step add up to a meaningfully better outcome.

Point 5
A clear preview of your final result, before any treatment begins.
For full-mouth rehabilitation cases, we produce a digital design of your proposed result and present it to you on screen during a dedicated case-presentation appointment. We also 3D-print both a model of your current teeth and a model of the proposed final result, so you can hold both in your hands and compare them directly. You see exactly what is being proposed, ask questions, and approve the design before any irreversible treatment begins.

Point 6
3D-printed temporary crowns from our in-house digital lab.
Temporary crowns for full-mouth rehabilitation cases are 3D-printed in our in-house digital lab — designed from your digital scans for an accurate fit and a natural appearance during the healing and transition phases. This is a meaningfully different workflow than chairside temporaries, and produces a better patient experience throughout the months of treatment.

Point 7
A timeline you can plan around.
Full-mouth treatment takes time — typically several months from start to final restoration. We will lay out the timeline at your consultation so you know exactly what to expect and when.
What to expect
Your full-mouth journey
Every full-mouth case begins the same way: a thorough consultation, comprehensive records, and a detailed conversation about your goals. From there, we build a treatment plan specific to your situation — typically presented as a written, phased plan with associated costs and timeline. You will leave the consultation with a clear understanding of the recommended treatment plan and what your care will cost.
You will have time to review the plan, ask questions, and decide what feels right. We do not rush these conversations. For many patients, the plan presentation is followed by a few weeks of consideration before treatment begins — and that is exactly how it should work.
Once you decide to proceed, we sequence the care carefully. Surgical phases typically come first — extractions, implants, grafting — followed by healing periods, then restorative phases, then any final cosmetic refinements. We will check in throughout the process and adjust the plan if circumstances call for it.
Cost and financing
What full-mouth rehabilitation costs
Full-mouth cases vary widely in scope, so we do not list a fixed price. What we promise is complete transparency: a detailed, itemized treatment plan with cost information at the conclusion of your consultation, with every procedure clearly identified.
Financing options:
- CareCredit — healthcare financing with multiple payment plans, including extended terms for larger cases
- In-house Membership Savings Plan — for patients without dental insurance
- Insurance coordination — most full-mouth cases involve some procedures that insurance covers, even when the overall plan exceeds standard maximums
- Phased treatment — for some patients, sequencing the care over a longer time horizon makes the investment more manageable
We will walk through all of this transparently. Many patients find that the total cost of a coordinated full-mouth plan compares favorably to the lifetime cost of repeated, fragmented dental care — because it actually solves the underlying problems rather than treating symptoms one at a time.
Frequently asked
Common questions
How long does full-mouth rehabilitation take?
Most cases span six to twelve months from start to final restoration, depending on what is involved. Surgical healing periods account for much of that time; the active dental visits are typically spaced out.
Will I be without teeth at any point?
Almost never. We plan every case so that you have functional, natural-looking teeth throughout the process — provisional or temporary restorations during healing phases, leading to your final result.
Will it hurt?
Surgical phases involve local anesthesia and oral sedation if you would like a more relaxed experience. We anticipate being able to offer IV sedation as an additional option later in 2026. Most patients are surprised by how manageable the discomfort is — particularly with our use of PRF and minimally invasive techniques. Restorative phases are generally comfortable.
Can I get a sense of what my final smile will look like before I commit?
Yes. For full-mouth cases, we produce a digital design of your proposed result and show it to you on screen during a dedicated case-presentation appointment. We also 3D-print models of your current teeth and the proposed final result, so you can hold both in your hands and compare them directly before any irreversible treatment begins.
I have been told my situation is too complicated. Is it?
Maybe — but probably not. We see complex cases regularly that other practices have declined or referred out. The technology we have, the experience the doctors bring, and the in-house coordination of our team make it possible to take on cases that would not be feasible elsewhere. Schedule a consultation and we will give you an honest answer.
Ready for a real plan?
Full-mouth cases start with a thorough consultation. We will examine, capture imaging, listen carefully, and lay out what is possible. No pressure, no rushed decisions.
