Full Mouth Reconstruction That Ends the Repair Cycle
Tired of fixing one tooth after another? Full mouth reconstruction in Seattle at SMILES ON 35th rebuilds your whole mouth in one planned sequence. Dr. Rubecca Shahid measures your bite first, so the cause is fixed and your new teeth are built to last.
When every visit means another repair
Teeth that keep breaking usually have a reason, and one plan can address it.
Maybe a filling cracks, then a crown, then a tooth on the other side. Your teeth look shorter or more worn each year, chewing has become careful, and you've started to wonder whether this will ever stop.
Repairing one tooth at a time rarely ends the cycle, because the cause is often the bite itself. When the bite is uneven or has collapsed, certain teeth take more force than they can handle. Full mouth reconstruction looks at every tooth, the bite and the jaw together, and rebuilds them in one planned sequence, so the repairs finally hold. You'll know the plan, the order and the cost before anything begins.

A mouth rebuilt to last
A full mouth reconstruction is a big decision. Here's what it can give you, and why one plan works better than many separate repairs.
When the bite is corrected and every tooth is restored as part of one plan, the forces that kept breaking your teeth are brought under control. You'll stop wondering which tooth will break next.
A stable, balanced bite lets you eat what you enjoy again, without favoring one side or avoiding certain foods. Meals become something to enjoy again.
Teeth rebuilt to their proper length and shape look healthier and younger, and the result is designed with your face and goals in mind. Many patients say they feel years younger.
Treatment is phased, so you can move through it at a pace that suits your schedule and budget, with the most urgent needs first. You'll always know what's next and what it costs.
Rebuilding the bite eases strain on your jaw muscles and joints, so comfort improves along with function.
How we plan your reconstruction
Full mouth reconstruction rebuilds or replaces most or all of the teeth to restore function, comfort and appearance. Planning is everything.
Your bite measured
T-Scan digital bite analysis and a Kois deprogrammer show how your jaw wants to close and where forces are overloading teeth.
Planned in 3D
3D scans and in-office CBCT imaging let us plan every tooth, root and implant site before treatment starts.
Phased treatment
Care is staged in a logical order, health first, so each step protects the next and fits your schedule and budget.
The right repair for each tooth
Each tooth gets the most conservative option that will last: biomimetic crowns, CEREC same-day crowns, implants or dentures.
Who full mouth reconstruction helps
It helps people with many worn, broken or failing teeth, a bite that has collapsed so the face looks shorter, or years of repairs that keep failing. Many have ground or clenched their teeth for a long time.
Full mouth reconstruction replaces endless one-off repairs with one clear plan, so you can chew comfortably, smile with confidence and stop worrying about which tooth will break next.

A gentle dentist who champions your lifelong health
Dr. Rubecca Shahid owns SMILES ON 35th in Wedgwood and leads your care herself, gently and with time to listen. Her own health struggles, then her mother's diagnosis, left her asking what the point of all our hard work is without the health to enjoy it. Longevity dentistry is her answer: care that protects your mouth and your health, so you can enjoy the life you're building.
Her care is conservative: she saves natural tooth wherever she can, chooses the least invasive option that will last, and recommends only treatment that truly helps you. When a tooth needs more, she shows you why. She is empathetic and thorough, with clear choices and no pressure.
She champions your long-term health and has trained to deliver on it. A Kois Center graduate, one of about 1,200 dentists worldwide, she completes nearly eight times the continuing education Washington requires every year. Her training spans prevention, function and sleep, restoration and smile design, so one dentist who knows you can plan each stage, close to home.

I came to longevity dentistry through my own health journey, wanting to understand why problems start and how to prevent them. What I needed then is what I want for you now: more good years, a smile you feel good about, and a dentist who listens.

Full mouth reconstruction questions
Full mouth reconstruction is a planned rebuild of most or all of your teeth, along with your bite, to restore comfortable chewing, a stable bite and a natural-looking smile. It replaces one-tooth-at-a-time repairs with a single plan.
You may, if many teeth are worn, broken or failing, or your bite has collapsed. A comprehensive exam with a bite map and 3D imaging shows whether a full reconstruction or a smaller plan is right.
It depends on how much work is needed. Most reconstructions take place over several months, in phases, so you can plan around work and life. You'll know the timeline before you start.
The cost depends on what each tooth needs, so it's set after your exam. You see the cost of each phase before treatment begins, phasing spreads it out, and financing through Cherry is available.
A smile makeover improves how your teeth look. Full mouth reconstruction rebuilds how your teeth and bite work, and improves the look along the way.
