Imagine trying to build a house on a shaky foundation—it wouldn’t last long, right? The same goes for your smile! If you’ve experienced dental trauma, injuries, or years of wear and tear, you might feel like your teeth are beyond repair. But here’s the good news: Full Mouth Rehabilitation at David C. Wood Family & Cosmetic Dentistry can restore your smile’s strength, function, and beauty—giving you back the confidence to eat, speak, and laugh without worry. 

Many people think a few damaged or missing teeth are just cosmetic concerns, but they actually impact your overall oral health. Left untreated, these issues can lead to more serious complications, including jaw pain, difficulty eating, and further tooth loss. That’s why full mouth rehabilitation isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about restoring function and improving your quality of life. 

Full Mouth Rehabilitation: What It Is & Who Needs It

Full Mouth Rehabilitation Explained

Full mouth rehabilitation (also called full mouth reconstruction) is a personalized, comprehensive treatment plan designed to restore the structure, function, and health of all your teeth. This isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach—each plan is uniquely tailored to the patient’s specific needs. The process may involve a combination of the following treatments:

  • Dental Crowns – To strengthen and protect damaged teeth
  • Bridges – To replace missing teeth and restore function
  • Veneers – To enhance the appearance of front teeth
  • Implants – To replace teeth permanently and prevent bone loss
  • Tooth Fillings & Dental Inlays – To repair cavities and structural damage
  • Gum Treatments – Address gum disease and create a healthy foundation for dental restorations

Every plan is unique because every patient’s needs are different. Whether it’s rebuilding after an accident, correcting years of damage, or fixing previous dental work, full mouth rehabilitation is a game-changer.

Who Needs Full Mouth Rehabilitation

You might be a good candidate for full mouth rehabilitation if you:

  • Have suffered dental trauma from an accident or injury
  • Experience severe tooth wear from grinding (bruxism)
  • Have multiple missing or broken teeth
  • Struggle with chronic jaw pain or bite misalignment
  • Have old, failing dental work that needs replacement


Ignoring these issues can lead to bigger health problems, like difficulty chewing, chronic headaches, and even changes in facial structure. Full mouth rehabilitation not only restores your smile—but it also protects your overall health.

What to Expect from Full Mouth Rehabilitation

The first step is a detailed consultation at David C. Wood Family & Cosmetic Dentistry. We’ll assess your oral health, discuss your concerns, and create a customized treatment plan. Depending on your needs, your rehabilitation may take place over several appointments, ensuring each phase of your restoration is done with precision and care.

Here’s what the process typically looks like:

  1. Comprehensive Exam & Planning – A thorough evaluation of your teeth, gums, and jaw to determine the best course of action.
  2. Imaging & Impressions – Advanced imaging helps us create a precise treatment plan and custom-fit restorations.
  3. Restorative Treatments – This phase may involve fillings, crowns, implants, or other procedures to rebuild and restore your smile.
  4. Final Adjustments & Aesthetic Touches – Once the functional restorations are complete, we ensure everything fits and feels perfect.

The goal is to leave you with a fully functional, healthy, and confident smile.
